Shape Baysie 2024 - Major Review Strategic Community Plan

What is the Strategic Community Plan?

The Strategic Community Plan (SCP) is the framework that guides everything we do at the City of Bayswater and ensures decision making is in line with community vision and priorities. For more information about the review see the FAQs.

Community Engagement

More than 1,000 people took part in the Shape Baysie engagement and told us their vision for the City of Bayswater over the next 10 years - click here to learn what we heard, and who we heard from.

The City, in close partnership with Council, developed a draft Strategic Community Plan (SCP) based on the outcomes of both the community and internal stakeholder engagement.

The Draft SCP 2025-2035 was presented to Council at its April 2025 OCM, and was advertised for feedback during May 2025. The outcomes report is available here.

Final Council Plan adopted

The Council has adopted its new Council Plan 2025 – 2035, setting a clear vision for the next decade: Growing a connected, innovative, sustainable City.

To align to both current and proposed future legislation the final version of the SCP (Part One) and the City’s Corporate Business Plan (CBP) 2025 -2029 (Part Two) has been brought together to form the City’s first Council Plan.
