Home>Residents>Community Building Initiative
In March 2006, the Department for Victorian Communities (DVC) announced the approval of a two year grant to the Alpine Shire Council for the establishment of a Community Building Initiative (CBI) project.
Community Building is a commitment announced in the State Government’s policy A Fairer Victoria. The CBI aims to bring residents, businesses, government and local organisations together to help transform their community into a place of opportunity and activity......

| The CBI is about focussing on determining issues facing the town and forming positive actions to address these.
It is also about building relationships in and across community to get things done, and is about empowering community to plan and act for itself and calling on all known resources to get the job done.
As part of the CBI project, each town involved has developed a "Community Atlas", containing a town profile, asset mapping, results of community workshops identifying the needs and aspirations of the town, information on what is planned for the town, challenges and next steps and also a community action plan. Each atlas is supported by demographics and other statistical data to provide a snapshot of the town and its people.
To access atlases and supporting documents, please follow the above links to each town page.
Alternately, a CD Rom containing a copy of the atlas documents for all towns can be obtained by contacting the Community Services department on (03) 5755 0555.
