Strategic Themes

This Strategy is based around six strategic themes, identified through stakeholder engagement and bestpractice research.

Each theme contains a series of objectives which provide the underlying strategies for making Launceston a more liveable, accessible, connected and sustainable place to live.

The Role of Council and Implementation

The Strategy has a lifespan of five years. Over that period, it will guide the City of Launceston to deliver a variety of relevant projects and policies, while building partnerships to bring about the city innovation vision.

Strategic themes are used to support the organisation to identify focus areas, and prioritise and deliver projects. Council has a leading role to play in delivering many of the objectives outlined under each theme, while others will be best achieved by local partners, regional partnerships, or the Tasmanian and Australian Governments. In all instances, the City of Launceston will play a leading role in advocating for each objective through collective effort.
