Consultation has concluded
Feedback closed 20 December 2020
The new Draft Plan of Management for St Leonards Park is now on exhibition (available in the document library or click here).
The draft Plan of Management (PoM) for St Leonards Park sets out Council’s land management objectives for the Park, addresses current issues and identifies and prioritises required work. It meets Council’s obligations regarding public land management under the Local Government Act 1993, the Crown Land Management Act 2016 and the Native Title Act 1993 and enables flexibility of use by Council and the community.
Further background information is available on the "background' tab below or byclicking here.
Next Steps
Once the exhibition period has ended, Council’s project team will review all submissions. A report to Council will outline the community’s responses to the draft PoM, and any changes needed to finalise the document resulting from the submissions. Once adopted, the document will replace Council’s existingPoM for St Leonards Park 2011.
For further information call Megan White, Council's Landscape Planner on 9936 8100.
Note: Submissions are considered open access information under the Government Information (Public Access) Act 2009. In the interests of public transparency, submission in its entirety may be made available via Council’s website. Submitters are encouraged to read Council’sInformation Sheet: Making a Submission to Councilprior to making a submission. All feedback received will be considered, however it is not intended to reply to individual respondents.
