Over the last two days I attended the Victorian Local Governance Association’s (VLGA) Changes and Challenges Program.
This program, which included lectures from many renowned experts, provided an overview of Melbourne 2030 as well as information on the planning process, including methods of community participation.
The program provided invaluable information on how the planning system works and the association between State and Local Governments in regard to planning matters, I would recommend that all new councillors attend this free two day seminar.
