Katherine Town Council is inviting residents, businesses and community organisations to review and provide feedback on the Draft Municipal Plan 2026/27.
The draft plan, which has been endorsed by Council for public consultation, outlines the services, projects, budget, rates, fees and charges proposed for the year ahead.
Mayor Joanna Holden said community feedback was an important part of the planning process.
"The Municipal Plan is one of Council's most important documents. It sets out what we plan to deliver over the next 12 months and how we intend to allocate resources to meet community needs," Mayor Holden said.
"We want to hear from residents, businesses and community groups before the plan comes back to Council for final consideration. Whether you have a comment, suggestion or question, this is your opportunity to have your say."
The draft plan focuses on the delivery of core services, infrastructure, community facilities and projects that support Katherine's future growth and liveability.
The 2026/27 Plan will be the final plan guided by Katherine 2027, Katherine Town Council’s five-year strategic plan.
Residents can review the plan and provide feedback through:
- the online survey or using the written feedback tool on Your Say Katherine
- by emailing records@ktc.nt.gov.au
- by lodging a written submission at Council's Customer Service Office at 29 Crawford Street.
Elected Members will also be available to discuss the draft plan with residents at:
- Woolworths, Oasis Shopping Centre – Friday 12 June, 10 am to 2 pm
- Katherine Research Station Field Day – Saturday 13 June
Consultation closes on 23 June 2026.
Feedback received during the consultation period will be considered before the Municipal Plan 2026/27 is presented to Council for final adoption.
