At our request, Cr James Dooley called the issue into Council last December before a recommendation had been made.
Council Officers have now recommended that the application be refused.
It would be useful to have at least one person address the Council to strongly support the officer's recommendation and their justifications.
A few in the gallery will also demonstrate the strong community interest in the Wetlands.
