Councillor Motion - No Change to Urban Growth Boundary

 

This is taken from JIM CHILD'S Blog 
At next Tuesday night's council meeting Cr Len Cox will move that Council:
1. Supports the retention of the Urban Growth Boundary without amendment.

2. Authorises officers to write to the Minister for Planning and all submitters advising them of this position.

My Comment:

Members of the public can make submissions to this item, and also make a request to be heard.

I would like to hear from the Officers outlining what the costly analysis has found so far in regards to extending the UGB. Why no Officer report in regards to this motion?

This item is another example of Council's new meeting procedure which forewarns the public of pending Councillor motions and gives the public and the Council Officers an opportunity to comment.
