Council voted to:

  • withdrew its support for a 13 lot subdivision at 1300 Oceana Drive, Tranmere following information from Mineral Resources Tasmania (MRT) outlining the potential for landslip risk which could not be mitigated under the current plan of subdivision, but maintains its support to rezone the land to General Residential Zone 
  • committed to transitioning from degradable to compostable dog waste bags and conduct a review of public dog waste infrastructure to ensure the changeover can be completed cost effectively, and authorised the CEO to include, as part of the FOGO (Food Organics, Garden Organics) program development, possible options to best address the issue of dog waste.
