The Woden Valley Community Council engages as widely as possible with the Woden community on a range of issues that affect the Woden community. The Council engages with the ACT Government on behalf of Woden residents on a range of issues including planning, public spaces, community facilities, health, education, housing and the environment.
On-going issues of interest to the Council are:
- Ensuring that densification is done well which requires land use planning for the Woden Town Centre including,
- mixed building heights that allow sun into public spaces and the judicious placement of residential towers where they do not significantly overshadow residents.
- public spaces
- community facilities including: a community centre, higher education (a CIT), a multi-purpose sports hall and a new aquatic centre.
- public transport
- promoting and restoring the environmental values and amenity of natural green areas, such as creeks, ponds, urban open spaces in the Woden Valley
- hospital developments and retention of the hydrotherapy pool
- education facilities
- upgrades of play spaces in all the suburbs and co-location of playgrounds at the local shops
