Boulder Town Centre Strategy - Community Meeting
The Boulder Town Centre Strategy is one of a number of projects that commenced in mid January 2007 as part of the City of Kalgoorlie-Boulder’s Strategic Planning Programme. The Strategy is intended to set out a vision for the future of the Boulder Town Centre and a plan for achieving that vision.
A community meeting is scheduled to take place on 12 April 2007 at 6pm in the Boulder Town Hall. The meeting will be focussed on updating and informing the local community on the aims, progress and anticipated outcomes of the project.
As such, the Strategy needs to reflect community views and aspirations. The local community, stakeholders and other interested and affected parties are therefore invited to participate in this meeting.
