Consultation has concluded
After the feedback we received previously during consultation in September and October last year, the policy has been rewritten to be clearer and better explain what the policy applies to.
The policy is seeking to reduce the impacts of wood smoke by limiting the installation of new solid fuel heaters.
This policy restricts the installation of new solid fuel heaters in the urban areas of:
- Queanbeyan (excluding Greenleigh)
- Jerrabomberra
- Googong
- Jumping Creek
- Tralee
- Bungendore township (including Elm Grove Subdivision)
- Braidwood township (including Braidwood Ridge Subdivision)
Under the policy, existing approved solid fuel heaters do not need to be removed. Existing approved solid fuel heaters can still be replaced with new solid fuel heaters.
Submissions may be made:
