Communications Subcommittee (CECS) hosted
a Community Discussion, attended by a small but enthusiastic group of
both SIRAC and community members, to discuss various issues related to
Parks & Reserves and Water & Wastewater.
Bill Gye welcomed participants followed by brief introductions from Judy Readman and Jenny Frazer (CECS). Group facilitators Sharon Kinnison (Parks & Reserves) and Judy Readman (Water & Wastewater) gave brief introductions, after which the participants chose a topic and engaged in thoughtful and frank discussion of the issues and possible solutions, with comments recorded on the paper tablecloths provided. The discussions concluded with a summary from both facilitators. Following best practice in Community Engagement processes, a draft of the Comments Summary was distributed to participants for their final input along with an event evaluation form to complete. Thanks to everyone who participated especially Emmie Collins for refreshments and Leanne McLean for colourful decorations both of which contributed to the welcoming atmosphere. SIRA would like to welcome everyone to our Island Vision Drop-in in the Hall, next Sunday 22nd June from 10am as part of the Winter Solstice Festival. Come along and share your vision for this wonderful place we call home. Please click on the links below for:
