STILL TIME TO HAVE YOUR SAY ON FINAL DRAFT OF MACQUARIE RIVER CORRIDOR MASTER PLAN

Dubbo Regional Council is reminding residents to have their say on the Final Draft Macquarie River Corridor North and South Precinct Master plan which is now on public exhibition.

The master plan was placed on public exhibition during December 2022 with an extended period to assist residents in having enough time to have their say during the Christmas period.

Residents still have six weeks to have their say, with the plan remaining on public exhibition until 17 February 2023.

Manager Recreation and Open Spaces Ian McAlister said some great feedback has already been received via the online portal.

“We really want to make sure all residents have their chance to make a comment,” Mr McAlister said.

“We believe we have addressed the concerns of the community by taking a balanced approached, but we need to hear from the community to see if we have it right and this process is the best way for people to have their say.”

Residents have a number of ways to comment on the plan, including via the Dubbo Regional Council website which allows them to provide comments on individual sections of the master plan or comment on the plan as a whole.

Residents are also encouraged to read through the list of Frequently Asked Questions displayed on Council’s website.

A review of the Final Draft Master Plan will be undertaken based on community feedback with a report provided for consideration at the March 2023 Ordinary Meeting of Council.
