Draft Plan Engagement
The Draft Plan was developed through a planning process that involves active public engagement and provided several feedback loops. The Draft Plan has been subject to public and stakeholder consultation which included both in-person and online engagement including a community survey to gather feedback on the Draft Plan. This also included consultation with community stakeholder groups and council advisory committees.
