The Inner West is the home of multiculturalism, it’s the birthplace of the working class labor movement in Australia, it’s a cradle for arts and culture, and with that background we have such an exciting future. – Philippa Scott
Main Streets, Business, Jobs and Covid Recovery
- Labor will develop a strategy to revitalise and support main streets in every suburb in the local government area, including auditing all activities and program
- Council can bring together businesses, community organisations and workers to better support our local economy.
A Greener Healthier Inner West
- Healthy people make for happier people. Labor is committed to expanding opportunities for Inner West residents to participate in organised support, enjoy our open and recreational spaces and pursue healthy activities, particularly as we continue to manage the COVID-19 pandemic. We’ll commit more than $10 million to upgrade the Olympic Swimming Pool and Splash Play Area at Leichhardt Park Aquatic Centre
- COVID-19 reminded us all just how important quality, open green space is for our health and wellbeing. Labor will protect our parks, streets and green spaces that are home to beautiful native species of flora and fauna.
- Combatting the climate crisis takes action from all levels of Government. Labor will make sure our Council does more than its fair share
- Families and households want to reduce their waste and Council has a role to play to make it easier for them to do so. Labor will expand food recycling to every home in the LGA.
Citizen Service Charter
- Labor understands the importance of local services for local residents and is committed to improving standards of service delivery across the local government area.
- Labor will act to make the Council more responsive to the ratepayers it is responsible to, by implementing a Customer Service Charter to improve responsiveness to ratepayers.
- Labor will continue to put people first when it comes to planning for our suburbs. Planning should be fair, transparent and driven by community need, not developer greed. Labor will set a goal to reduce the time it takes to assess development applications for residential properties from 101 to 60 days;
