Shaping Our Future: Corporate Plan 2023 - 2028
Maranoa Regional Council is planning for the future — and we want everyone to have their say in Shaping Our Future. This means updating our Corporate Plan and doing a progress check-in on our Local Plans, to make sure the Maranoa stays a great place to live, work and do business.
Our current Plans were developed with Councillors and the Maranoa community in 2018. While these Plans have helped us to create a strong, vibrant and connected region, we are excited to take a closer look at our priorities to make sure they reflect future opportunities and the changing needs of our residents.
As a well-known regional centre for agriculture, tourism, specialised sports, and energy and resources, we need to build on these strengths while exploring new opportunities to grow the region in a sustainable way. Long-term planning is key to unlocking Maranoa’s potential.
We want to hear from you as part of this important process and there are a number of ways you can have your say:
- By completing this online survey
- By having a conversation with your Local Area Director
- By attending a Councillor community meeting.
Keep an eye on Council’s website and social media channels to find out when a Councillor meeting is happening near you, or email council@maranoa.qld.gov.au to find out more.

Maranoa Regional Council is currently undertaking a full review of our community and local plans in the areas of industry, tourism, arts, culture, sport and recreation.
Residents may remember, or have been involved in, the development of our communities' first Local Plans in 2013. Those plans have guided Council's actions over the last 4 years.
However, the region has progressed significantly over the last 4 years, new residents have come to our region, and a new Council term commenced in 2016. It is timely, therefore, to take a fresh look at where we are heading, and seek our community's input into Council's directions for the next 5 years.

Maranoa Regional Council Pest Management Plan 2012-2016 has been developed for the benefit of this community. The expertise of many local stakeholders (including local and state government agencies, industry groups, environmental representatives, community groups and individual landholders) has been drawn on in planning for the cooperative management of pests on all land within the shire boundaries.
The key objectives of the plan are to:
- Reduce the economic, environmental and social impacts of pests within the Maranoa Regional Council area.
- Improve the use of resources and expertise available for managing pests within the Council area.
- Prevent the establishment of new pests and minimize the spread of current pests.
- Improve the protection of environmentally significant areas.
This plan has been developed in accordance with the requirements of the Land Protection (Pest and Stock Route Management) Act 2002 and will serve as a guide to all local land managers.
