The Independent Planning Commission has scheduled a third day for the public meeting on a proposal to develop the Moss Vale Plastics Recycling Facility, to accommodate the strong community interest.
The Commission received 135 speaker registrations, more than can be accommodated in two days.
The previously scheduled dates (28 October 2024 and 1 November 2024) will still go ahead, however both will now be held in person at the Bowral Memorial Hall.
The Commission has allocated speaker timeslots for these two days in the order in which the registrations were received by the Commission.
A third day has been added on Tuesday 12 November 2024 to ensure everyone has the opportunity to present their views. This third day will be held entirely online.
Chair of the Independent Planning Commission Andrew Mills has welcomed the high level of community interest.
“Broadly speaking the task of the Commission is to review and assess three primary considerations – the departmental assessment, the feedback from stakeholders and the application of law and policy,” Mr Mills said.
“We appreciate the community’s patience as we have made changes to the meeting arrangements to meet the demand.
“We will be emailing all registered speakers and would ask everyone to check the details carefully to ensure no one misses their chance to present.”
The deadline for written submissions has also been extended to Tuesday 19 November 2024.
