Register to address the KLPP at a public meeting

If you have made a submission to Ku-ring-gai Council during the development application notification process, your submission will be considered by the assessing officer and provided to the KLPP to be considered by the Panel before the application is determined. Once you have been advised of an application going before the KLPP, the assessment report is completed and no further written submissions will be considered. An opportunity to make a verbal submission to the Panel in a public meeting is available for registered speakers. However, if you elect not to speak at the public meeting your original submission will still be considered by the Panel.

Members of the public wishing to address the Panel regarding an agenda item must have already lodged a written submission on the Development Application (DA) if they wish to address the KLPP. 

To address the KLPP at a public meeting please register on Council’s website by 3pm on the Wednesday before the meeting.

Each registered speaker will be allocated 3 minutes to address the KLPP.

Please note the Panel is required to make an audio record of the public meeting and make the recording publicly available on Ku-ring-gai Council's website. You should be aware that this may include your personal information if you are addressing the Panel.
