Statement on West Franklin project

On 10 May 2022, Council was provided with an update on the West Franklin Stage 2 project. Council discussed this matter at some length and agreed that an important next step is to engage with nearby residents of the proposed development about options to reach a satisfactory outcome on the site.

An invitation to meet with the Lord Mayor and the CEO will be extended to concerned representatives in coming days for this purpose.

Following this meeting, a further update will be provided to Council to inform its decision making and next steps in this matter.

The outcome of Council’s deliberation will be communicated to those engaged as part of this process.
