Background Information

At the Ordinary Meeting of Council - 18 June 2025 it was resolved that Council would publicly exhibit three new fees relating to development assessment applications under section 68 of the Local Government Act 1993 (NSW) and a pre-lodgement meeting fee for road widening applications.

These fees were excluded from the original public exhibition period due to an administrative oversight, and it was recommended to Council that these be publicly exhibited to ensure transparency and compliance with legislative requirements.

Your feedback is a way for you to share your thoughts and ideas on a particular issue or project. The goal is to make sure your voice and the community’s voices are heard and considered. It helps provide valuable insights, identify potential issues and suggest improvements. This way, decisions can be more inclusive, transparent and effective, reflecting what you and the community really needs and wants.

Responses to engagement projects are compiled and considered. When projects are reported to Council to make a decision a summary of community feedback will be included. Updates on projects will be included in these pages and elsewhere on Council's website.

Sometimes it takes some months to provide feedback to the community and to make a decision as further investigation is often needed. We are listening and we do take your suggestions on board!

Submissions received will be reviewed and a final report will be developed for adoption by Council. For project updates, please click "Follow" at the top of this page.
