Local government elections are being held this October. From 12pm Tuesday 17 September until 6pm Saturday 26 October, Council will enter a 'caretaker period'. During this time, Council business is conducted in accordance with our Election Period Policy.
Section 6.8 of the Code of Conduct has been updated effective 1 November 2023 and now states:
That within seven days of the interaction, Councillors must disclose all interactions with planning applicants (applicant and their representatives), developers and objectors, via any and all means, and these details are to be recorded on a register.
A register has been created to collect and collate Councillor interactions with persons and or companies associated with statutory and strategic planning matters.
