Consultation has concluded
All Council policies need to be reviewed within 12 months after the Local Government Election. We now have a further six policies up for review. Changes made to the polices as part of this review process are outlined below:
Competitive Neutrality Complaints Policy – No changes have been made to this policy given the current review of policies and processes being undertaken by IPART. Council has been involved in a joint submission with other councils and it is anticipated a final report will be presented to the Treasurer and Minister for Customer Service by February 2023 and the Policy will then be reviewed and amended accordingly.
Road Names Policy - The policy has been updated to more clearly reflect Council’s requirements when assessing new road name proposals. It has been expanded to:
include a specific focus on the inclusion of Aboriginal language and names
create a more equal gender balance among proposed commemorative names
clarify the intent and purpose of the Road Names Register
include specific road name proposal requirements for small and large lot subdivisions and
include Council’s preference for avoiding duplication of road names within the LGA.
The following Local Aboriginal Land Councils were notified of the proposed changes to the policy.
Ngambri LALC
Ulladulla LALC
Batemans Bay LALC
Mogo LALC
Additionally, Dr Aunty Matilda House received a copy via Paul Girrawah House.
Two responses were received. Neither indicated that we should not proceed to full community consultation.
NOTE: This Policy has prior approval from Department of Planning and Environment Water provided no substantial changes are made.
On-Site Sewage Management Policy – Standard legislative updates throughout document have been made as well as additional information around the process for dealing with failed systems.
Open Burning Policy – Policy reviewed. No changes made.
Environmental Controls on Construction Sites Policy – This Policy is a former Queanbeyan City Council Policy. It has been completely overhauled and re-written.
