Community Participation within the Transit City Project was authored to ensure the aim of wider community participation and consultation within the Transit City Project. Through achieving this aim the community will hold greater confidence in the future of Ringwood and will more willingly accept a reasonable degree of change that will inevitably occur within the future as the project progresses.

It is crucial that the Ringwood Transit City Project gains wide acceptance within the Maroondah Community to ensure its successful implementation. In order to secure this acceptance community participation must be strengthened so that avenues are readily provided to facilitate discussion allow for any applicable responses and action upon any relevant concerns.

This submission contains a number of recommendations relating to the Ringwood Transit City Community Reference Group (CRG) as well as recommendations on engaging the broader Ringwood and Maroondah community.
