FAQs

The project team will review all the feedback we heard from the community during the engagement period. 

All feedback is important and is one factor in the decision-making process for Council. The graphic below shows some of the factors we consider in our decision making:

The project team will consider all feedback received and the draft review of the Code of Meeting Practice may be varied as necessary. 

A report will be prepared for Council detailing what was heard and present recommendations on final amendments. 

Council will consider this report and provide a resolution on how to proceed. 

All those that have given feedback will be notified of the date of the Council meeting and how to view the relevant documents.

If the Model Meeting Code is released by the NSW Office of Local Government prior to this exhibition and re-adoption process, Council may pause or cancel the readoption of the current Code of Meeting Practice. However, any such decisions will be in accordance with any detailed guidance provided to Councils by the NSW Office of Local Government on relevant transitional arrangements for moving to the new Model Meeting Code.
