    Council's strategic planner, Matthew Zenkteler, met with the Rural Villages Strategy reference panel on Wednesday 3 September, and a copy of his presentation is now available for download here on Your Say Tweed.

    The presentation provides a summary of the consultation undertaken so far and discusses the project management approach for the next 'Design' phase, which involves the drafting of a Rural Villages Strategy.

    It also outlines the proposed structure of that draft document and overlaps with other Council strategies, particularly the Rural Lands Strategy.

    If you have any questions about the presentation, or the Rural Villages Strategy generally, please contact Council's Planning Reforms Unit on 02 6670 2503.

    Community workshops

    As part of the 'Discovery and Dreaming' phase of Council's Rural Villages Strategy, community members are invited to participate in a series of workshops to identify future planning priorities for key rural villages in the Tweed.

    Following an initial round of information sessions in late 2013, Council officers have drafted a discussion paper, which summarises key themes and ideas raised by the community.

    This current round of workshops will provide the village communities with an opportunity to review the discussion paper and identify their priorities for future planning, before a draft Rural Villages Strategy is prepared in the coming months.  Details are provided under the Key Dates section or in this printable poster

    Discussion paper

    In addition to the workshops, formal submissions on the discussion paper  are invited until close of business on Friday 8 August 2014.  

    Submissions should be addressed to: 

    Rural Villages Strategy
    The General Manager
    Tweed Shire Council
    PO Box 816
    MURWILLUMBAH NSW  2484

    or emailed to tsc@tweed.nsw.gov.au.
