Community Consultation
The purpose of community consultation is to (i) inform the community about matters under consideration by Council and, (ii) enable Council to make better informed decisions.
A community consultation process will usually be commenced after Council has received a proposal put to it by an external party, by its officer(s) or by Council itself.
Community consultation provides the opportunity for either a broad or restricted number of the community to make their opinion known to Council. All submissions lodged in an appropriate manner and by the due date will - either in summary or in full - be referred to Council.
As Council is a democratically elected decision making body, the results of a community consultation process should not be construed as binding on Council nor a mandate for it to act in accordance with the majority opinion, irrespective of the total number of respondents for or against a matter.
