      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Do you have ideas, priorities and concerns about Healesville and its future?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Yarra Ranges Council is preparing a structure plan for the township and is looking for your input.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;As a first step, Council has released a discussion paper, which is based on the themes of housing, business, heritage, built form and public spaces, natural environment, community facilities and services, physical infrastructure and transport and parking.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It also includes statistics about Healesville&amp;rsquo;s population, age, households, education and employment and poses questions about Healesville&amp;rsquo;s future.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;As a resident, visitor or business owner of Healesville your views and opinions are important. What do you have to say about the future development of Healesville?&lt;/p&gt;
