Public Forum
Council will hold a public forum prior to each Ordinary, Extraordinary or Committee Meeting of Council for the purpose of hearing oral submissions from members of the public on items of business to be considered at the meeting, where speakers have been approved by the General Manager.
For ordinary meetings and any extra-ordinary meetings held at 9.30am, Council will hold the public forum at 9am on the day of the Council Ordinary and Extraordinary meetings. Conditions are outlined in Council's Code of Meeting Practice.
Speakers have to be approved by the General Manager prior and must speak for or against an agenda item. To apply to make a presentation at a public forum, please submit your request to the General Manager for review and determination on our Application to present to Council (Public Forum) Online Form by 12pm the business day before the public forum.
Applicants will be notified of their speaking time by email.
If a public forum is to be held the list of speakers will be added to Council's website prior to the meeting.
The public forum will be recorded and uploaded to Council's website as soon as possible. Recordings of Public Forums held after the November 2023 Council meeting will be available to view from Council's website.
