Background Information

Since September 2017, the City of Hobart has been working with Hobart community members and stakeholders to draft a new vision for the city.

This vision will help the City of Hobart understand more about the city that Hobart communities want to work, live and play in. The vision, once finalised, will guide Council's work into the future.

The project is near completion, and these were the major stages (you can read more about each in the Key Dates section)

• Only in Hobart: blog posts based on interviews with 214 people from across the city
• City Forum: a two-day workshop attended by 116 people
• Wider engagement: including a survey in the City News, which received over 500 responses
• Stakeholder engagement: including workshops and opportunities for written submissions
• Community Panel: a group of 46 community members and business people who deliberated on the findings from the previous stages of engagement and helped draft the new vision

The draft vision, Hobart: A Community Vision for our island capital, was shared during May/June 2018 with the wider and the community were invited to comment . The comment period iclosed on 19 June 2018.
