The plan

The Huntly Structure Plan will:

  • consider future expansions
  • explore opportunities for more commercial and retail opportunities
  • consider the infrastructure needs of the community for the next 30 years

The draft plan so far includes your feedback and the vision you voted for. We are also preparing more technical studies to inform the plan.

The draft Managed Growth Strategy is also open for public consultation until July 12, 2024. This establishes a long term residential framework plan for urban Bendigo. It identifies Huntly as a growth area to accommodate longer growth.
