Council has three documents on public exhibition that you might be interested in commenting on – dog policy, rezoning and bike paths.
Update from last meeting
- In response to the SCC policy requiring CCBs to hold insurance when they use council facilities, and concern regarding the draft CCB Policy and the draft Community Engagement Strategy the CCBs have met and established a ‘combined CCB group’ to liaise with Council. The focus for many CCBs is sharing information between Council and community and for these purposes insurance does not seem necessary, especially as it would require fundraising of some kind.
- Because the HWCV made a submission to Council regarding 4 Murdoch St modifications the HWCV was invited to make a presentation to the Land and Environment Court conciliation process at 4 Murdoch St in April. Jo Warren made a presentation for the HWCV; there were 5 other community presentations. The conciliation was terminated by the Court and will likely be followed by a hearing later in the year.
