Ideas To Make It Happen

The Community Vision cannot be achieved by Council alone, and the involvement of residents, businesses, community groups, organisations and all levels of government is important in ensuring that the vision turns into reality.

• Join one of the many community groups or organisations involved in various community projects across Frankston City, bringing together people with similar interests.
