Community representatives receive briefing ahead of exhibition

Representatives of resident and ratepayer groups, business and industry groups and environment groups received a briefing on the upcoming exhibition of the draft Local Strategic Planning Statement at a special edition Stakeholder Forum held in Tweed Heads recently.

The draft Tweed Local Strategic Planning Statement, ‘the Statement’, sets out the 20 year vision for land-use planning in the Tweed. It describes the special characteristics that contribute to the Tweed’s local identity, the shared values the community want to maintain and enhance, and how growth and change will be managed into the future.

The Statement sets clear planning priorities required to support our community’s social, environmental and economic land-use needs into the future, including where these are best located and when they will be delivered. To meet the community’s future vision, it also outlines short, medium and long term actions to deliver on these priorities.

The draft Statement will be on exhibition for public comment from Tuesday 3 March 2020 to Friday 3 April 2020.
