Woolwich Township is undertaking a collaborative strategic planning initiative to produce the next strategic plan. Over the course of this initiative, we’ve engaged with a variety of community members to explore how they see Woolwich now and what they hope it could be in the future. Using these insights, we collaborated with senior leadership and Council to draft a set of strategic priorities that could guide Woolwich Township over the next 10 years.
As a valued member of the community, your perspective is crucial. We would love to hear from you and get your feedback on these five strategic priorities —what you like, what you’d improve, and any questions or new ideas you might have.
Please take 20 minutes to fill out this short, anonymous survey. You’ll have an opportunity to review each strategic priority before providing feedback. Your feedback is greatly appreciated and will be considered as we iterate upon the strategic priorities and finalize the Woolwich Township Community Strategic Plan.
Please feel free to reach out to Rae Ann Bauman at rbauman@woolwich.ca with any questions or accessibility needs.
