                    State and Federal election advocacy priorities 2022

                    The City of Melbourne's Federal and State election advocacy priorities 2022 outline how Melbourne will bounce back bigger and better to support residents, businesses and visitors.

                    We have ambitious plans to drive economic recovery, embolden our city following the impacts of COVID-19 and prosper well into the future.

                    The pandemic has disproportionately impacted Melbourne, and we need a proportionate response to recover.

                    The strong foundations of our city economy remain, and we are seeing green shoots as our recovery begins, but there is more to be done to encourage investment and support jobs.

                    Our advocacy priority documents identify the City of Melbourne's priorities where the city ambition needs to be matched by other levels of government.

                    The documents include measures critical to the short term and casts our minds to the future, where the need for city-shaping projects will produce a double dividend – jobs and stimulus as we build them while making our city more liveable, prosperous and resilient in the long term.

                    The City of Melbourne looks forward to working with all levels of government to create durable partnerships to see these advocacy priorities come to fruition.
