| Council meetings to consider general matters take place on the third Monday of every month, commencing at 7pm in the Council chambers. Town planning matters are considered at the town planning committee meeting, which takes place on the first Monday of every month, commencing at 7pm in the Council chambers.
A full list of the general council meeting and town planning committee meeting dates are accessible through the link below.
Both meetings are open to the public and residents are encouraged to attend. Copies of meeting agendas are available from 3.30pm on the day of the meeting at the Council offices.
If a member of the public wishes to raise a question at the general council meeting, it must be in writing and delivered to the Chief Executive Officer prior to 12 noon on the day of the meeting. Questions can only be raised at general council meetings, not in town planning committee meetings.
To raise a question, the following items must be taken into account:
| |
 | 1. Time constraints may limit Council in accepting all questions raised. | | 2. The Mayor may refuse to deal with any question. | | 3. The Mayor will direct the question to the appropriate Councillor or officer for response. | | 4. The Councillor or officer may take the question on notice for reply at a subsequent meeting if they are not able to answer the question at the meeting. | | 5. Question papers must be submitted by midday (12 noon) on meeting day. These may be hand delivered or via facsimile or email. | | 6. The Local Law also requires that the person who has lodged the question must be in attendance during question time. | | 7. Generally, questions that are repetitive or similar in general nature to questions previously raised will not be accepted.
