A Community Panel is a group of individuals who are selected to provide feedback and insight on various issues related to a community. They may be asked to review proposed policies, provide input on community projects, or weigh in on important decisions that affect the community.

The goal of a Community Panel is to ensure that diverse perspectives are represented and that decisions are made with input from a broad range of community members. Additionally, Community Panels can help build trust and transparency between local government and community members by providing a platform for open dialogue and collaboration.

Any current resident of the City of Casey 18 years and over is eligible to register for our Casey Community Panel.

EOI applications will open periodically throughout 2024 as we aim to build our panel to 500 members.

You will need access to a computer or phone to participate in online surveys and polls, materials can be provided in accessible format upon request. We invite you to share any access issues or support you may need in the registration form.

We aspire to create a Casey Community Panel that represents a sample of the broader community, based on 2021 Census data.
