However, HRCC may consider lodging a submission through the public feedback process during Parks Victoria’s consultation period.
The decision on whether HRCC will lodge a submission, and the nature of any submission, will be guided by the new council.
The updated draft management plan is now available for public consultation on the until December 2.
