Let's shape Hume's future together
Consultation has concluded
Hume City Council sought ideas from the community about what will make Hume a great place to live, learn, work and play in the future. The ideas shared, along with what we’ve heard, helped our Community Panel to draft a Community Vision for Hume City.
On Saturday 31 July more than 100 community members attended an interactive online workshop where the draft community vision was revealed.
In small groups community members had the opportunity to talk about the actions needed to achieve the three themes in the four-year Council Plan:
- A community that is resilient, inclusive and thriving
- A city that cares about our planet, is appealing and connected
- A Council that inspires leadership, is accountable, and puts the community first
Feedback from this session is currently being collated and reviewed for inclusion in the four-year Council Plan.
What we heard at the community event on Saturday 31 July 2021
A summary report has been prepared based on all of the feedback received at the community event. This report also includes feedback from some people who had registered but were unable to attend on the day.
What happens next?
Your comments and feedback on the actions for the Council Plan will inform the draft Council Plan.

Kim Aldred11 months agoPutting to practical & profitable use - old buildings esp. the Jacksons Hill Heritage buildings surrounding that & Western Water areas
With local & State investment, I could easily trransform the old and fenced off Jacksons Hill asylum Address: 17 Circular Dr, Sunbury VIC 3429 Into a thriving and productive Health Retreat. This could generate $$$ thousands of dollars attracting; local, State, Interstate & potentially International visitors

2 comments6Jenm11 months agoBike lane
We need a bike lane that runs along Sydney road so we can ride safely to Campbelfeild as its dangerous with all the traffic and bikes are hard to see there is plenty of room to put on in and it would encourage more people to bike to work and take some traffic of the road so it be better for the environment
0 comment0Dawn11 months agoPoo Patrol 💩 we need a dedicated crew that regularly inspects key walking paths picking up dog poo and other rubbish.
The amount of dog poo along our walking paths since COVID began has gotten out of control.
1 comment0Lukas11 months agoKeep our suburbs clean
Do something about stopping people from littering and dumping rubbish in our streets and local parks. Also our streets are full of house waste waiting to be collected.

1 comment2Ranee12 months agoPut solar panels in all Hume buildings
1 comment4Nadia11 months agoNew National park & native animal sanctuary
With the fast increase of housing development which was previously farm land our native animals are being push out. Where are these animals going to go? Set up a fenced park similar to Woodlands park to give the wildlife a safe place to live and keep them off the roads.
0 comment1Teacher11 months agoSupport local farmers, urban food bowl for 2040. Keep green wedges, limit urban sprawl maximise farm land
Good productive farm land like river flats at Salesian, critical to urban food bowl 2040. Only build on land not suitable for agriculture. Save environmental wildlife corridors.

What priority actions would you like to see to achieve this theme:
Chris11 months agoCouncilors and engagement
Councilors should be made to show that they have engaged with the community before voting on a motion or report too often we see them not and they vote the way they want not the way that is best for the community. They should be able to demonstrate how much engagement and how they have engaged on the topic and who they've engaged.
0 comment1Bienne12 months agoMayors and Councilors should reveal their income and benefits they have received from their job roles to the public for scrutiny.
Stem out all forms of corruption!!!
2 comments2Chris11 months agocouncil integrity and motions.
It is evident that some councillors vote on motions raised by other councillors based on who raised the motion. This removes and shred of integrity in council and is a larger council culture issue that needs to be addressed.
0 comment0Bulla Community and Action Group11 months agoCouncil puts community first
before Council remove important infrastructure in a town, the Community should be advised of Councils intention and why. A single Councillor should not make a single handed decision based on his thoughts without consultation with the community if an other option would serve the community better.
1 comment6Diana12 months agoLeadership development opportunities
I would like to see Hume Council offer leadership development programs for young people and women returning to work. Employment Pathways programs and act as an employment hub connecting residents with employers for local job opportunities. Remind residents of local council jobs openings in the newsletter. Facilitate open working spaces for people working from home during COVID and post COVID -
