Housing Strategy consultation extended
Council has resolved to extend the public consultation period on the draft Frankston Housing Strategy until September 13.
At Monday night’s Planning Meeting (PM015, August 5 2013), Councillors also resolved to hold three ward meetings later this month to inform the community in person about the strategy which focuses on likely population growth and housing demands through to 2031.
The draft strategy identifies future housing needs in Frankston City and makes recommendations on ways to address and manage these needs.
The Ward meetings are being held:
North West Ward - Thursday 29 August 2013, 7:30pm, Ebdale Community Hub and Learning Centre: 20 Ebdale St Frankston, 3199.
North East Ward - Tuesday 27 August, 2013, 6:00pm, Lyrebird Community Centre, Lyrebird Drive, Carrum Downs.
South Ward - Thursday 29 August 2013, 6:00pm, Frankston South Recreation Centre, 55 Towerhill Road, Frankston South.
Anyone wishing to view the strategy, provide feedback or complete a survey on planning matters in Frankston City can visit Council’s Customer Service Centres or online at: http://www.frankston.vic.gov.au/About_t ... index.aspx.
Residents can also comment in the same way on the Draft Frankston Activities Area Structure plan until August 26 and the Municipal Strategic Statement until August 31.
The Municipal Strategic Statement is a legislative requirement which both the finalised Housing Strategy and the Frankston Activities Area Structure plan will feed into.
