Annual plan
Annual plan hearings have been placed on hold while we consider revising the plan and re-consulting with our community.
The official consultation period ended on Sunday with 285 written submissions and 72 requests to speak with councillors during hearings that were originally scheduled for 13-15 May.
These hearings, and later deliberations scheduled for 2-4 June, have now been placed on hold.
If we do consult again, people who have already submitted will be able to retain, revise or retract their submissions. People who have asked to be heard will be advised of new hearing dates when they have been finalised.
