According to The Gladstone Observer, the visioning committee will lead the project to enable community members to express views on how the Gladstone region should develop over the next 20 years.

The committee represents a diverse cross-section of the community, including local industry, Indigenous communities, environment groups and health bodies.

Committee members will bring to the table their main issues and concerns, but will also facilitate discussions about positive opportunities in the region now and in the future.
