Why advocate?
We’re excited about our key strategic projects, and have recently undertaken an innovative vision and prioritising exercise with our community to set meaningful goals for our future.
Currently, our population is growing at a rate of 7.7% per year. By 2050, Serpentine Jarrahdale will have grown from a Shire with a population of approximately 30, 000 to a City with a population of nearly 130, 000 people.
It is important to us that we look after our residents, and give them the quality of life they expect when moving to Serpentine Jarrahdale. Our population growth rate has meant that even with our normal revenue streams and developer contributions, we are struggling to finance the infrastructure our community needs.
A lot of our priority projects rely on strong government relationships, and acquiring commitments to project funding from essential State and Federal partners to help make our goals a reality. We plan to strongly advocate to that effect, with our community’s passion and support behind us to achieve crucial outcomes for our future.
