Local government has a responsibility for community well-being, which covers social, economic, cultural and environmental aspects. However, everything that local government does is within the legislative framework established and maintained by Parliament. Under the Local Government Act 2002, local authorities must undertake a robust planning process. This starts with community consultation to determine the community's needs and wants (called community outcomes).
