About Planning Committee
Committee Meetings are open to the public, except for discussion of legal, staff or other confidential matters. Members of the public can make requests to speak at meetings.
Before each Committee meeting, a Business Paper is prepared detailing the items that are to be presented to the meeting. Business papers include an agenda (list of items to be considered at the meeting), reports (details of items to be considered by Council) and minutes (details of decisions made at previous Council and Committee meetings).
Readers should be aware that the Recommendations and Notices of Motion as set out in the Council Business Paper are simply proposals to the Council for its consideration. The Council may adopt these proposals, amend the proposals, determine a completely different course of action, or it may decline to pursue any course of action. The decision of the Council becomes a resolution of the Council and is recorded in the Council Minutes.
Agendas and Business papers for Council meetings are available from Council’s Customer Service Centre, libraries and on our website from the Saturday prior to each meeting. Minutes of Council Meetings are placed on Council’s website within 10 working days of the meeting. For further information on Council meeting agendas, minutes or business papers please contact Council’s Governance department on 9748 9930.
