The Connect Wangaratta website serves as a key platform for understanding community sentiment on important topics, helping shape policies and projects directly informed by community feedback. Community members who sign up to the Rural City of Wangaratta's Connect website between now and May will automatically enter the monthly draw for a $50 gift voucher.

Launched last November, Connect Wangaratta enables residents to engage with Council conveniently online. This engagement complements in-person consultations, including workshops, pop-ups, and forums. Registration is quick and simple, taking less than five minutes to complete. Once registered, participants receive project updates and notifications of upcoming opportunities to provide input on plans and projects.

Council views Connect Wangaratta as a vital tool for engagement and consultation and encourages all residents to register. Over the past year, Connect Wangaratta has facilitated community feedback on fifteen key plans, policies, and strategies, including the Recreation Strategy, 2024-25 Budget, use of Merriwa Park timber, and the Climate Adaptation Plan.

For the next six months, new registrants will be entered in a monthly draw to win a $50 voucher. Additional weekly prizes like local café vouchers and family swim passes to the Wangaratta Sports and Aquatic Centre, will also be drawn.

Community consultation for the Council Plan and Community Vision will commence soon on Connect Wangaratta, setting Wangaratta’s strategic direction for the next four years.

"These initiatives are built around community input, and we encourage everyone to take part in shaping our future. Your voice matters. Connect with us on Connect and help make a difference in our community." Said Brendan McGrath, CEO
