After a successful City Deals Showcase in Canberra last November, which saw extensive discussions with representatives from the Prime Minister and Cabinet Department on how the deals can best serve our communities, we've invited the PM&C to come to our National Congress in May and talk more to the sector about City Deals and the best way forward.
Our board and other senior local government professionals got a solid understanding of the Federal Government's position on City Deals during the Showcase, and are now in a great position to consolidate that understanding and get ready to move forward – especially since the three deals will be much further along by May than they were last November!
The Showcase also put us in good stead thanks to the excellent input on the UK experience with City Deals from Professor Gerry Stoker from the Institute for Governance and Policy Analysis at the University of Southampton and Professors Mark Evans and Graham Sansom of the Institute for Governance and Policy Analysis at the University of Canberra, who offered insightful analysis of the UK experience and a practical way forward, Make sure you join us in May for the National Congress.
And with the recent announcement of new joint funding from the Smart Cities and Suburbs Program, we'll also be talking to the PM&C about the suitable projects and the best ways to apply.
