Stonnington Tomorrow
On Monday 22 September 2025, the City of Stonnington adopted Stonnington Tomorrow, which incorporates:
- the Stonnington Community Vision 2040 – articulating the community's aspirations for the future
- our Council Plan 2025–29 – how we will strive towards this vision over the next four years.
Stonnington Tomorrow is our shared blueprint for the future – built on conversations we began with our community in late 2024. This included a process of deliberative engagement with our People's Panel. Stonnington Tomorrow sets out what matters most to our community and what we plan to deliver over the next four years.
Our vision for Stonnington is to be a safe, accessible and creative city with a modern, sustainable and interconnected community that supports the good health and wellbeing of all. A place that celebrates and embraces all cultures, including First Peoples past and present. Read the full community vision within Stonnington Tomorrow.
To bring this vision to life, our Council Plan 2025–29(PDF, 10MB) sets out 5 strategic directions to guide us over the next four years:
- Liveable city
- Vibrant destination
- Thriving community
- Sustainable environment
- Well-governed organisation
Thank you for the fundamental role you have played in helping shape our vision for our future. We look forward to continuing to work together to make Stonnington the best place to live, work, study and play for everyone.
Annual Plan
Each year, we develop an Annual Plan. This describes the activities we undertake each financial year to implement the Council Plan. Our Annual Plan is included in section 2 of our Annual Budget documents. Visit our Annual Report and Budget page for more information.

The Council Plan 2025–29 shapes what we do and how we will strive towards our vision. We will share progress in quarterly updates and measure it against the strategic directions of the Council Plan.
In these updates, you'll get information on how we are working to deliver each action. If we're on track, there will be a green tick. If we're behind, there will be a yellow or red symbol and an explanation.
