Moira Shire Council is planning for the future—and we want you to be part of it.

Building Our Moira: Your Shire, Your Say invites all residents, businesses, and community groups to help shape five key strategic plans that will guide how we fund services, build infrastructure, manage assets, and ensure a sustainable, thriving community for years to come.

The five plans—Council Plan, Asset Plan, Budget, Financial Plan, and Revenue and Rating Plan—each play a vital role in setting priorities, making responsible financial decisions, and delivering the services and facilities that matter most to you. Together, they form a long-term roadmap for our Shire’s future.

Community input is essential to ensure these plans reflect the real needs, values, and aspirations of our people. Through open conversations, clear information, and accessible engagement opportunities, we are committed to working together to create a stronger, more resilient Moira Shire.

Building Our Moira is the next step in turning our community's long-term aspirations, captured in MoiraVision2045, into action.

While MoiraVision sets out the big-picture hopes for our Shire's future, these five strategic plans focus on the practical decisions we need to make today - how we allocate resources, fund services, and build infrastructure to help achieve that vision.

Your involvement ensures we stay true to the goals our community has set.

Here are a few easy ways you can have your say:

  • Complete the short feedback form linked to each plan.
  • Email your feedback to info@moira.vic.gov.au
  • Call our Customer Experience team on (03) 5871 9222 to share your ideas or get assistance.

We're making it simple for everyone to be part of the conversation, your input will directly shape the final plans.

Council staff will be visiting towns across the Shire throughout May. Come along to one of our community pop-up sessions to learn more about the plans, ask questions, and provide feedback in person.

Want to speak directly to Council about your ideas?

Residents and community groups are invited to present their feedback at a Submission Hearing on Wednesday 4 June 2025. This is a great opportunity to share your thoughts in person and help shape Council's next steps.

To register, simply complete any of the consultation surveys. At the end of each survey, you’ll be asked if you’d like to speak to your feedback. Council will be in touch with more details after your request is received.
