Each year, Council is faced with the task of assessing and prioritising the many worthwhile projects that have been identified within the community. Council lists each project, assesses it against a common set of objective criteria and prioritises the project with a view to scheduling projects over Council's long-term planning period - currently ten years.
Submissions should include sufficient detail to enable Council to understand:
- The location and scope of the project
- The estimated cost of the project
- The perceived benefits of the projects including any risk/safety issues, social/community impact and environmental impacts
- Any other relevant information to enable Council to make an informed decision
If you would like to submit a project for consideration in Council's capital works program, or 2026/2027 operating budget, then please lodge your submission marked "2026/2027 Budget Submission" with Council by Monday 1 December 2025.
Submissions can be lodged by email council@kentish.tas.gov.au or by mail to: Team Leader Finance, Kentish Council, PO Box 63 SHEFFIELD TAS 7306
