As part of Bellingen Shire Council's advocacy for urgent support and long-term solutions, we are asking residents and local businesses to complete our Community Impact Survey.
The survey is designed in two parts, one for residents and households, and one for local businesses, so that questions are relevant and reflect different experiences. If you are both a business owner and a community member, you are welcome to complete the survey twice, once for each perspective.
The survey asks practical, straightforward questions about travel times, extra costs, access to work, school and healthcare, and business impacts, as well as an opportunity to share your personal experiences. The responses will be combined to provide clear, measurable evidence for State and Federal decision-makers.
The survey takes around 15 minutes to complete and closes on Sunday 22 February 2026.
