Rural Lands committee to be reestablished

DUNGOG Shire Council will reinstate its Rural Lands Steering Committee, following a motion at its 18 June meeting.

Originally established in 2019, the Committee was designed to inform and guide the development of the Rural Lands Strategy.

With the strategy now being revisited under the Commonwealth’s Housing Support Program, Council has endorsed to re-activate the committee with updated terms of reference and the implementation of an expressions of interest campaign to appoint three new independent community representatives.

The committee will consist of the Mayor (Chair), three Councillors, three independent community members, and three agency representatives from relevant planning and agricultural departments.

Expressions of interest for community representatives will open on Friday 20 June and close at 5pm on Monday 7 July.
