Due to the state government's seven-day lockdown, the community engagement drop-in session scheduled for Thursday 12 August at the Newport Community Hub for Planning Scheme Amendment C114 (the proposed rezoning of Precinct 16 West from industrial to residential land use) has been cancelled.
The purpose of this session was to support community members interested in making a written submission and to answer any questions regarding the proposed rezoning of Precinct 16 West from industrial to residential land use. 'Precinct 16 West' includes land at 5-7 Sutton Street, 9-9A Sutton Street and 41-59 Stephenson Street, South Kingsville.
In place of the face-to-face session, community members can book a 15-minute individual online consultation with a member of Council's Strategic Planning team to discuss the proposal and ask questions about making a written submission. Residents interested in making a submission are encouraged to book a consultation.
