Community consultation


We value the input from the community and are excited about the benefits the Precinct will provide for existing and future community.

Involving people from the very beginning is the best way to make projects better. Urban renewal is a long process, and we value the feedback received over the years. Consultation with Traditional Owners, stakeholders, local community and landowners is continual and ongoing.

At key stages we run formal consultations to seek feedback on specific activities or decisions which can be influenced by community feedback – but we’re always available and open to hearing ideas and feedback. We would like to ensure the information on our website is also the type of information you are looking for, and appreciate your feedback.
