Following positive trial feedback over the last 18 months from the public and local businesses, we've given the green light for the next stage of the Street-Side Dining project. The project, which introduced expanded outdoor dining spaces to help support small business navigating out of COVID19, has been praised for adding vibrancy to the city’s streets and attracting more visitors and locals. A City of Hobart survey showed 94% of the public and 88% of surrounding businesses supported the trial. The three trial sites at Simple Cider, Straight Up Coffee + Food, and Pilgrim Coffee will be reinstalled with durable materials and will remain in place for five years. We're working on developing a formal Street-Side Dining Program with guidelines for other traders interested in creating their own outdoor dining areas, ensuring the streets remain functional and safe.

Over the last few months we've engaged and listened to the business community to hear what people think of the plans for the Collins Street transformation. We received some great input and also saw themes emerge on key topics like parking, so we've updated our project page to include more information and FAQs. If you would just like to be kept up to date with the project or have questions or ideas, you can find relevant links on the following page: https://lnkd.in/g_vAmWKq #cityofhobart #collinsstreet #future #transport [Image of design concept for Harrington to Victoria Street.

Craig Garth is our very own Chief Remote Pilot here at the City of Hobart. He runs all the drone operations and is the main person behind the controls. From snapping beautiful shots of Hobart to checking solar panels and making 3D maps, Craig's drone skills help the city get a lot done. Craig will be at the Festival of Bright Ideas performing demonstrations and answering questions for current and aspiring drone pilots. If you can't make it to the sessions for schools on Friday and the general public on Saturday, then read our article to learn what Craig's best tips are for those recreational drone pilots out there! https://lnkd.in/gguhqAag #cityofhobart #festivalofbrightideas #education #stem [Image of Craig holding a drone.]

State of the City data dashboards are live on our website! Ever wondered what makes our city tick? We do. All the time. Decisions we make are based on data we collect either directly from you in the community (via in person or online engagements) or through the use of external data sources like the Australian Bureau of Statistics and others. To make it easy for community members, developers, business owners and others to also use the data, we’ve created a one stop data shop all about Hobart that is now live on our website. This tool not only enhances our organisations ability to quickly access and track the city's progress but also empowers you, our community with the information you need be informed, be involved and make decisions. The State of the City Dashboards can be accessed at https://lnkd.in/gedyyxFU #cityofhobart [Image of a snapshot of a State of the City Dashboard]

Recently the team at Lady Gowrie Tasmania contacted us to thank our cleansing team for providing joy to the children at the Battery Point childcare centre. The cleansing team regularly clean the streets surrounding the centre and the drivers often take the time to show the sweepers in action while the children look on, happily waving and smiling. After receiving the thank you from Lady Gowrie we arranged a special visit by some of our wonderful cleansing team members. We really aren't sure who enjoyed this experience the most! #cityofhobart Image of children from Lady Gowrie enjoying the visit from our cleaning team.

The Australian Taxation Office understands there is a lot to be across when running a small business, which is why they have developed an online learning platform and series of masterclasses. We think this a great tool for our local businesses to utilise. The platform and masterclasses were co-created with small businesses and educational experts to deliver learning that can be customised, depending on each stage of a business’s life cycle, structure and industry. You can access free and flexible online courses to sharpen your knowledge of tax, super and the core aspects of effective small business management. The masterclass is a great opportunity to take your online learning further, you can ask questions particular to your small business needs and hear from others. To get the most from the masterclass make sure you complete the online learning before attending. The first masterclass is 15 August... don't miss it!
