With the aim of providing high standards of transparency and openness in town planning and development decision making, this page provides details of all ‘Prescribed Contact’ Cr Chris Cornish has with ‘Developers and Interested Parties’.
This page will be updated within a few days of any contact with a developer, lobbyist, adviser or other person whom I deem to be an interested party in relation to significant residential and non-residential developments. It is effective from the 1st of March 2016.
