The project study area comprises seven local government areas within Eastern Metropolitan Melbourne, being the cities of Boroondara, Knox, Manningham, Maroondah, Monash, Whitehorse and Yarra Ranges, with Sport and Recreation Victoria being a funding partner. What are regional trails? Regional trails are those shared trails that accommodate multiple potential user groups (particularly pedestrians and cyclists), are mostly off-road, have a relatively long and continuous length and have a regional scale, purpose and/or impact. The regional trails of Eastern Melbourne A total of twenty-two existing or potential trails were identified and assessed as a part of this study. A summary map of these trails is provided on the following page. It can be seen that the trail network is concentrated in the western part of the study area, which coincides with the areas of highest population density. The sparsely populated far eastern parts of the study area (east of Warburton) contain no regional trails.

    SUPPLEMENTARY AGENDA Ordinary Meeting of Council To be held at the Civic Centre 511 Burwood Highway Wantirna South On Monday 23 September 2019 at 7:00 pm 2019-09-23 - Ordinary Meeting Of Council 13 Supplementary Items 13.1 Community Investment Plan SUMMARY: Acting Manager Communications (Gerard Scholten) The Knox Community Investment Plan outlines Council’s advocacy priorities to our political leaders and the community. RECOMMENDATION That Council adopt the Community Investment Plan as at Attachment 1. 1. INTRODUCTION The Knox Community Investment Plan builds on Council’s successful advocacy by outlining its priorities in the 2020-21 financial year and beyond. The Community Investment Plan aligns with the Knox Advocacy Framework endorsed by Council in June 2019. 2. DISCUSSION Advocacy, in the local government context, is an activity or series of activities designed to obtain public and/or government support (usually funding) for services, programs and infrastructure which are beyond the remit of Council to fund. This is particularly important in the financially constrained rate capping environment. The objective of the Community Investment Plan is to influence decision makers and enhance community support and confidence in Council. Council is advocating to the Victorian Government for key infrastructure projects, policy reform and co-funding for 19 areas across 6 key themes: • Transport Solutions • Enhancing Our Natural Environment • Enhancing Our Built Environment • Sport and Leisure Participation • Community Wellbeing • Supporting Local Employment 3.
