FW: Citizen's Petition Progress

FYI

This should be posted on the various sites given that Council has flagged that it “going absolutely by the book” despite there being 1,493 signatures. So much for community engagement, accountability and “Organisational Values”!

Good morning Ray
 
I am responding on behalf of the General Manager.
 
As outlined in the Council Report on 11 April 2016, the General Manager, in accordance with s60(2) of the Local Government Act 1993 (the Act), will report to Council within 42 days after tabling the petition. This will therefore be on or before 23 May 2016.
 
Following the Council Meeting, if the petition complies with s59 of the Act, the council will hold the public meeting within 30 days after the meeting, which is on or before 22 June 2016.
 
When we have determined the date of the Council Meeting, you will be advised regarding the petition's compliance and the date of the Council Meeting in accordance with s60(1) of the Act.
 
Regards
John

Dear Robert and Albert,

I note from the Council minutes that the Citizen Petition to Council has been tabled in accordance with Section 58 of the Local Government Act 1993 (Tas) and I have advised several petitioners of this fact.

I am however receiving many enquiries about the expected timeline from this point forward in respect to the petition. In particular, as the authorising person, I’m being asked about the anticipated date for the public meeting. I would appreciate any advice that you are able to offer in order that I can more adequately advise petitioners seeking this information.

Regards,

Ray
