Does your sports club, church, community group, or organisation have a project you think
Council should deliver?
Melton Council is inviting organisations and residents to put forward their ideas and
projects to help prepare the 2023/24 budget.
Council is looking for projects that will make a difference to the local community.
Budget submissions can be made online from November 21 until December 16.
Councillors and Council staff are holding budget information drop-in sessions for residents to find out more information, ask questions about the process and discuss your idea.
The first session will be held on Saturday, December 3 from 10am until noon at Caroline Springs Library. The second session will take place Tuesday, December 6 from 6pm to 8pm at Melton Library.
You will also have the opportunity to present your ideas to Councillors in person early next
year.
If you would like to pitch your project in person, council asks that you indicate this when making your online submission.
To make a pitch, you will need to share details about your organisation together with your
proposal for a project, program or service including who it would service and how it would
address a community need and benefit locals.
Submitters will also need to be prepared with budget details and project plans.
Melton Mayor Cr Lara Carli said this is a chance for residents to put their projects on councils radar for the next budget.
“We look forward to seeing your submissions and learning how they’ll make a difference to the
local community,” she said.
