Public Information and Workshop Session: Development of Kenny (18 May 2010)

Announcements, Meetings, Planning/Development No Responses »

May 082010

The ACT Planning and Land Authority (ACTPLA) has started planning for the new Gungahlin suburb of Kenny, where land release is scheduled to begin in 2012-13.

The North Canberra Community Council believes this issue is of interest to North Canberra District residents and will directly impact our region as this new suburb will be directly opposite Watson on the other side of the Federal Highway.

The NCCC waits with anticipation to discover whether ACTPLA actually intends to letterbox Watson residents to inform them of this public information session and workshop.

You can directly contribute to Kenny’s planning by attending a community information and workshop session on 18 May 2010. Everyone with an interest in Kenny is invited to attend. You will be able to discuss the issues you think need to be addressed in planning for Kenny with consultants and ACTPLA staff.

Community information and workshop session

Date: Tuesday 18th May 2010,
Time: 6-8pm
Where: Harrison Public School – Multipurpose meeting room Wimmera Street, Harrison
