This document presents a vision for Hamilton’s future, reflecting what’s important for Hamiltonians. 

Everything we do is aimed at improving Hamiltonians’ wellbeing. We asked what kind of city you want, and where you want Hamilton to be in the future, and used this feedback to help create five priorities for 2020 - 2030:

1. Shaping a city that’s easy to live in
2. Shaping a city where our people thrive
3. Shaping a central city where people love to be
4. Shaping a fun city with lots to do
5. Shaping a green city.

The five priorities helped shape the 2021-31 Long-Term Plan, which set budgets and projects for 10 years.
