Do you want to have your say on the future of the Richmond Valley?
Over the next two months Council will be reviewing its long-term plans and consulting with the community on projects and priorities.
We’ll be asking people what they love about the Richmond Valley, what they want to protect and preserve and what they would like to see improved.

State Of The Valley
Council’s State of the Richmond Valley Report sets the scene for the review of our long-term plans. The Report focuses on the big issues, opportunities and future challenges for our community and also tracks Council’s progress in delivering our long-term goals.
Did you know that over the past two years, we’ve seen more than $56m in new commercial and industrial development in the Valley, and annual productivity has risen to $1.2 billion?
Do you know how many houses the Richmond Valley will need by 2040 – or how much Council will be spending on repairing flood-damaged roads in the next two years? These are just some of the facts included in our easy-to-read report.
