Sustainable Tourism Plan 2024 - 2028

This survey asks for your feedback on the Draft Sustainable Tourism Plan 2024-28 and what role you see Council, tourism operators and the community playing in tourism development in our Shire. 

The survey closes 4 August 2024.

This survey is to improve our knowledge of our businesses' needs around destination management and is open to all Mansfield Shire businesses that directly serve visitors.  

Although the focus is on tourism, please keep in mind that by strengthening the visitor economy, services enjoyed by local people, such as restaurants, attractions, arts and entertainment will benefit. Looked at the other way, actions directly aimed at making somewhere a better place to live and work will also make it a more appealing place to visit. 

Survey is closing 28 February

This survey is to understand our community and their preferences in regards to the management of our destination.

Sustainable tourism takes full account of its current and future economic, social and environmental impacts, addressing the needs of visitors, the industry, the environment and host communities. The aim is not to solely increase visitation numbers but to increase visitor spend and economic yield across the Shire while maintaining liveability and addressing risks for the community. 

By strengthening the visitor economy, services enjoyed by local people, such as restaurants, attractions, arts and entertainment will benefit. Looked at the other way, actions directly aimed at making somewhere a better place to live and work will also make it a more appealing place to visit.
