Making a Submission

Your submission should be concise but cover all the points you wish to make.  If you wish to speak at the hearing on the proposed plan modification what you are able to say can be limited by what you have written.  Therefore, it is important to think carefully about the wording of your submission.  Be specific about your concerns and the decision you want the Council to make about the proposal.

Send only one copy of your submission.  Duplicate copies which arrive after the first copy are not used or referred to, unless there has been a change in the submission.  Copies of all submissions will be available to the public in libraries and service centres.

For more information on making submissions you can view a useful guide HERE. ( 77 kb PDF )

1. Your name and address for correspondence.
