Advocacy

One of our key roles is to listen to and represent the needs and desires of our community, and advocate on your behalf for the things that make Albury such a special place to live, work, play, visit, and invest.

You’ve told us in Toward Albury 2050 that you have a clear vision for the future, and that we will only achieve this vision by working together, leading change, building strong partnerships, and engaging with a broad range of stakeholders.
