Help shape the growth of Wattle Range
Wattle Range landowners and residents have an important role to play in shaping the growth of the region by responding to the Council's 25-Year Strategic Land Use Plan - Opportunities and Constraints report.
The report sets out some key ideas on how the Wattle Range region should develop, whether it be future land use, environmental protection, or community infrastructure and services such as walking and cycling facilities, parks, healthcare, or education.
Consultants Holmes Dyer facilitated a number of face-to-face community engagement sessions across the region last week.
Stephen Holmes of Holmes Dyer said: “We spoke to around 60 people across the four sessions in Millicent, Penola and Beachport. This has really helped us to build a picture of what areas we need to examine more closely in the next phase where we prepare a draft report.”
Landowners and residents are encouraged to provide their thoughts on the Opportunities and Constraints report, to ensure it is based on sound information. “We remain keen to hear from the community and encourage everyone to either complete the survey on the Council website, or to email us directly at engagement@holmesdyer.com.au if they have any questions,” Stephen added.
The current phase of community consultation closes 5pm on Wednesday, 23 March 2022 - so there is still time to have your say.
Feedback received will be presented in the draft 25-Year Strategic Land Use Plan, on which Council will seek further comment and input from the community before it is adopted.
