Guiding development

The Central Hobart Plan is ready to move to the next stage after finishing its extensive consultation period earlier this month.

Future Hobart Portfolio chair Helen Burnet said they were now moving towards implementing the plan, which the council had been working in partnership with the Tasmanian Government and the community. The plan will be a comprehensive guide to future develop in the city over the next 20 yeas.

“All of the stakeholder and community feedback will be carefully considered to further enhance the draft plan to even better reflect the diversity of voices, ahead of its presentation to the Hobart City Council for adoption later in the year,” Cr Burnet said.

“After the adoption of the plan, the City of Hobart will start to deliver, partner and advocate for the implementation of its actions.”
