Last month Mosman residents attended a series of 'Community Conversations' exploring the following themes:

• Connecting Communities
• Liveable Spaces
• Keeping the 'village' in Mosman
• Mosman After Dark
• Smarter Service

A report summarising discussions at these sessions is now available in the 'Document Library' on this site

In early November 2017 Mosman businesses came together over breakfast at the Mosman Art Gallery to talk about local issues and challenges and to offer ideas for Mosman's future. A report has been prepared detailing the discussions at this event and is now available in the 'Document Library' on this site.

On Thursday 2 November Council is hosting Business Breakfast at the Gallery – an opportunity for local businesses to meet one another for breakfast, and to participate in a conversation about Mosman's future.

This free event will start with breakfast at 7.30am, followed by a facilitated conversation from 8am to 9am about the challenges, aspirations and priorities for business in Mosman.

If you are a local business operator and would like the opportunity to meet with other local business people - as well as voicing your views on local business needs - please consider coming along.

RSVP to 9978-4095 or to e.kemp@mosman.nsw.gov.au by Friday 27 October to confirm your attendance.

On a sunny winter's morning at the Mosman Market on Saturday 5 August, we asked residents what they like about Mosman today and what they'd like to see in Mosman's future. Take a look at what some had to say by viewing the video at the top right-hand of this page.

Are you a primary or high school student with great ideas about how Mosman should be in Mosman in 10 years' time?

Have you been having difficulty making the deadline for our Postcards Project?

You're in luck - we've just extended the deadline by 10 days until Friday 22 September!

With our 'Postcards from the Future' project we're asking primary students to draw their future Mosman on a postcard and high school students to write what they want Mosman to be like in 2028. To enter online, click on the Postcards link under the 'Survey' tab above. Also, entry forms can be downloaded from the Document Library on the right or collected from Council .

There are prizes of $200 and $100 gift vouchers to be won in each category. Don't forget - entries close Friday 22 September 2017.

Our Imagine Mosman 2028 Survey closes next Friday, 25 August. If you haven't yet completed a survey, please consider letting us know your thoughts by the closing date. You can do this in just a couple of minutes by clicking on the Survey tab above.
