"Moira Shire has a diverse natural landscape with forested rivers and waterways, lakes, productive agricultural plains and gentle sloping hills," Cr Mustica said.
"Our landscape supports an array of plants and wildlife, and, as a community, we are dependent upon the environment in which we live.
"There are many threats to the health and well-being of our natural environment and our communities."
Residents can provide feedback on the Moira Council website until May 27.
