Greater Shepparton City Council is inviting community members to share their views on safety across the region as part of a consultation now open on the Shaping Greater Shepp website.
The consultation, which runs from Monday 7 April to Friday 25 April 2025, is part of Council’s review of the Safer City Camera Network (CCTV) and perceptions of safety across Greater Shepparton. Council is seeking feedback from residents, visitors and businesses to help assess the effectiveness of current safety measures and identify opportunities for improvement in public spaces.
Mayor, Councillor Shane Sali, said community input is vital in helping to shape the future of safety infrastructure across the municipality.
“Council is committed to supporting a safe and accessible Greater Shepparton,” he said.
The Safer City Camera Network is a partnership between Council and Victoria Police where CCTV cameras are used across the Shepparton CBD, Victoria Park Lake and the Shepparton Sports Precinct to support pro-active crime prevention and response.
The consultation follows a Council resolution requesting that a report be produced reviewing the effectiveness of the current network, including the cost and feasibility of future stages. It also directed Council to review current Memorandums of Understanding relating to the program, and to conduct public consultation across Greater Shepparton as part of the review.
The survey takes less than five minutes to complete and is available on the Shaping Greater Shepp website.
