Natimuk Economic and Social Plan

The Natimuk Economic and Social Plan aims to address issues and concerns within the community and create a plan to improve the economy and liveability within the town.

Over the past two years Covid 19 has impacted the economy and social connectedness within Natimuk. Prior to Covid 19 the town was a popular tourist destination and had a thriving arts community. The Natimuk Economic and Social Plan will respond with innovation and vision to meet the challenges within the Tourism and Arts Sector along with the wellbeing of the general community brought about by Covid.

Following a period of public engagement, a Draft Natimuk Economic and Social Plan 2022 was produced, and has now been adopted by Council.
