Council has placed a draft Climate Resilience Policy on public exhibition for 28 days.

The purpose of Council's Climate Resilience Policy is:

1. To demonstrate Lismore City Council’s leadership in identifying and responding to climate change risk, by promoting, supporting and delivering climate change action and transformative community resilience planning.

2. To support long term financial planning, asset management, strategic planning, and other key Council processes with consistent, timely and scientifically sound information and local climate projections related to climate change.

3. To embed climate change adaptation and resilience as a core component of Council’s strategic planning, processes and operations.

4. To ensure all functions and activities of Council consider climate change adaptation and resilience for a more resilient organisation and community.

The draft Climate Resilience Policy can be viewed online in our Document Library or in hardcopy at our Corporate Centre, 43 Oliver Avenue, Goonellabah.
