Project Update - November 2020

Thanks to those who have participated in the project’s engagement to date, and for your recent feedback to the draft concept design. Your comments and contributions will now be reported to the Council for its consideration.

The report of the feedback will be available to view on the agenda of the City Infrastructure Committee November 2020 meeting from COB tonight – at this webpage:

http://hobart.infocouncil.biz/

The report presents the results of the survey that was conducted through October, and will be discussed by the committee on Wednesday evening 25 November 2020. You can tune in to the meeting which will be livestreamed on the City of Hobart YouTube channel from 5.15pm.

We’ve heard lots of views and have aimed to capture a true record of those views in the report. If you feel that your views have not been sufficiently captured, and that you have more say, there are two additional pathways open to you.

1) Email elected members
You can email your elected members to let them know – as a group electedmembers@hobartcity.com.au.

Or to the individual elected members on the City Infrastructure Committee -

Councillor Harvey (chair) cr.harvey@hobartcity.com.au
Lord Mayor Councillor Reynolds lord.mayor@hobartcity.com.au
Deputy Lord Mayor Councillor Burnet cr.burnet@hobartcity.com.au
Councillor Ewin cr.ewin@hobartcity.com.au
Alderman Behrakis ald.behrakis@hobartcity.com.au

2) Make a deptuation
Alternatively, you can request to make a deputation to the committee. This is a process where members of the public are given five minutes to address the Committee in relation to a report. Committee meetings are currently by Zoom and are broadcast on YouTube, and recorded. The committee chair is required to approve any requests for deputations.

If you would like to consider applying to make deputation, please contact Council Support Officer, Belinda Herbert to discuss on 6238 2721 or herbertb@hobartcity.com.au

Once the City Infrastructure Committee has considered the report, it will then be considered by the full Council, where it will make a decision about the next steps for the project, at its meeting on 7 December 2020.
