Review of Council policies (batch 1)

At its meeting on 19 February 2025, council resolved to review its local policies in batches. This have your say post concerns the review of the first batch of policies

Under the Local Government Act, councils are required to review their existing policies after each election to ensure the policies are relevant, effective, and fit for purpose. If the policies are still required and the council proposes to adopt them with or without amendment, it must first exhibit the draft policy for a minimum period of 28 days. Council must also invite and allow submissions on the draft policies for a period of 42 days. So that a consistent approach is taken the draft policies listed below have been placed on public exhibition for the full 42-day consultation period.
