MOVED
Director Bartram, SECONDED Director Young, that the role of the Electoral Area
‘H’ Village Planning Project Advisory Group be to confirm and prioritize local
issues, act as information sources for both the community as a whole and staff,
and help to guide the village plan preparation process.  Any number of interested volunteers including
residents, landowners and stakeholders can participate in the advisory group,
although staff will be encouraging residents to attend as many meetings as
possible, and will encourage broad representation at the meetings. The
individuals who attend the Community Planning Advisory Group Sessions will
participate through a series of public meetings to:

work with Planning staff on the
development of one or more village plans, based on the outcomes of
community-wide events. This means that the advisory group will carry forward,
refine or add to the work accomplished or the feedback provided at
community-wide events, and take this additional work/refinement back to the
community-at-large at key stages for information and feedback.
·
