4. Consultation
Prior to the development of the Draft, internal consultation was undertaken with Council’s Natural
Areas Team and Disaster Management Team. An early Draft was provided to Queensland Fire &
Emergency Services for their review. The Draft was workshopped with Councillors on 17 December
2020 and presented to Council at its Ordinary Meeting of 18 February 2021, where Council resolved
to undertake public consultation over a four week period.
