Hey all,
Got this email from City Council. Seems the mtb survey and vision survey has been changed into this: (I've highlighted the important bits.) I guess it means if we don't go, mountainbiking might not be heard!
"Mt Coot-tha Future Plan update and invitation to Information Sessions
Welcome to those of you who are new subscribers to the Mt Coot-thaFuture Plan update. In our October 2009 update we said the next step for the Mt Coot-thaFuture Plan would be to hold a forum to look at consultation results andvision options.
We have replaced the proposed forum with a series of library workshop sessions around the city to ensure there are multiple opportunitiesacross the city for people to get involved. These are being held later this month running from 17/2/10 –28/2/10.
Please find attached an invitation from Cr Matic, Council's ChairmanEnvironment, Parks and Sustainability Committee, which details the timesand locations of the various sessions.
Next Steps
These sessions will complete the visioning stage of the communityengagement. Council will then write a draft vision document and seekyour feedback. We will let you know when this is available and how youcan provide feedback. I look forward to seeing you at a session.
RegardsFrances"
