Register for a Community Conversation!

Council will be hosting a series of three online conversations in October, as the next phase in developing its new Community Strategic Plan, MOSPLAN.

The conversations will each have a specific focus, ranging from traffic and transport, to social connections, Mosman’s village lifestyle, and natural spaces.

An invitation is extended to all interested residents to attend up to two of these sessions. All conversations will be limited to a maximum of 10 residents and will last up to one and a half hours.

See below for information about each of the conversations. There will be an afternoon and evening session for each.

You can register for the session that best suits you using the ‘Register Now’ button for that session. Spaces in each session are strictly limited and we ask that you register for no more than two sessions, to give others opportunities to participate.

Questions regarding the Community Conversations, should be directed to Sarah Artist on 0409 830 283 or at Sarah.Artist@centium.com.au

CONVERSATION 1: It Takes a Village

Mosman residents regularly nominate Mosman’s ‘village feel’ as something they really value, that sets Mosman apart from other areas of Sydney and that they would like to see preserved.

What does the village lifestyle mean, what are the key characteristics of a village, and how does Mosman currently fit the bill? Is our village lifestyle under threat and what should be done in future years to ensure it’s protected? What improvements can be made to promote even greater liveability within our suburb – both day and night?

CONVERSATION 2: Connecting the Dots

There are a range of connections that are critically important to the Mosman community. Some connections, like traffic and transport, are regularly identified as issues of concern to residents. Other connections fare better, such as social connections, how residents engage with each other and feel valued and supported by their community.

Where are the pressure points for connection in Mosman and what are some of the ways these should be addressed in the future? How can getting around Mosman, or travelling further afield, be meaningfully improved? And in a post-pandemic world, what needs to be done to create an even more vibrant and inclusive community, that not only provides assistance to those in need, but provides all residents with opportunities to connect and enjoy shared spaces and experiences.

CONVERSATION 3: It's Only Natural

Mosman’s natural spaces are often quoted as one of the suburb’s greatest, most loved qualities. Bushland, foreshore areas and parklands provide opportunities for conservation, recreation and the promotion of healthy lifestyles. Sometimes they are simply valued for their visual qualities within residential and commercial neighbourhoods.

How do we ensure Mosman’s natural spaces continue to be nurtured and used in the most appropriate ways in years ahead? Should some spaces be given higher priority than others and why? What can be done to support a good balance of uses and what action can be taken to make sure that our natural spaces continue to make a significant contribution to both the local landscape and community life?
