Alpine Resorts 2020 Strategy Implementation

Council has a legislative responsibility to review and co-ordinate the implementation of the Alpine Resorts Strategic Plan, the current version of which is known as the 'Alpine Resorts 2020 Strategy'.

The Victorian Alpine Resorts 2020 Strategy was prepared by the Government to guide "the sustainable long term planning and management and to assist in investment attraction in Victoria's six alpine resorts: Falls Creek, Lake Mountain, Mount Baw Baw, Mount Buller, Mount Hotham and Mount Stirling".

The Strategy was released in June 2004. It sets out a vision of the future: "Four season, vibrant, sustainable resorts", and defined a series of "actions" grouped under six strategic directions.

A "lead agent" and "partner/s" were listed for each of the "actions". All such agencies have a statutory duty to take all reasonable steps to give effect to the Strategy. The Strategy requires that each agency identified as being accountable for particular "actions" is to report on their progress and states that the Alpine Resorts Co-ordinating Council is to collate this information.

In March 2007, Council surveyed all relevant agencies on their progress in implementing the actions for which they were responsible. The information provided by the ˜lead agents" has been collated by the Council and web-published.

A new survey of agencies was undertaken in April 2009 and an updated progress report has been published.
