Residents of Bangalow, business people and those who love the town are urged to read the Draft Bangalow Village Plan and tell Council what they think.
The plan has been developed in collaboration with the Bangalow village guidance group, comprising 19 community members and three councillors.
The draft plan sets out the aspirations of residents for their village and is intended to guide its improvements and development over the next 15 years.
Council planner, Jamie van Iersel, said ‘staff have been working very closely with the Guidance Group for more than two years to develop the draft plan’.
‘The residents, businesses, families and older people who call Bangalow home, have such a strong commitment to making sure future development complements the village.
‘The plan aims to ensure that the things people love about Bangalow – the heritage buildings, the trees, the village feel, sense of community and natural environment are enhanced,’ Ms van Iersel said.
Council staff have been out and about in Bangalow this month talking to people about the draft plan.
The Draft Bangalow Village Plan: Vision and Initiatives is on public until December 17.
To read the draft plan go to www.byron.nsw.gov.au/Community/Place-planning/Bangalow-Village-Plan.
People can make submissions by going to www.yoursaybyronshire.com.au or via email [email protected].
