Community land hearing to be held tomorrow night
Central Coast Council has extended the public exhibition period of its draft Plan of Management for Community land until Tuesday, February 28.
However, the independent public hearing required to reclassify council land as "community land" is not being rescheduled.
It is being held tomorrow night at 6pm at the Peninsula Community Centre.
Registration for the hearing is required.
Council director Dr Alice Howe said the draft Plan of Management provided direction for the future management of community land owned by Council.
"Community land is Council-owned land that is held in perpetuity for community use.
"This new plan aims to replace a range of management plans from the former Wyong and Gosford Councils," said Dr Howe.
Council administrator Mr Rik Hart said the public hearings provide an opportunity for the community to understand the key issues about the categorisation of community land before making a submission.
"Each hearing will consider a different set of land parcels that are being categorised for the first time or which Council proposes to re-categorise," said Mr Hart.
"I encourage residents to look at the full list of land parcels on our website to decide whether to attend a public hearing or make a submission."
