Council’s forestry approach Debate

Operational Considerations - Stakeholder Engagement

Option 1

The resident supporting Option 1 argues that the current commercial forestry approach has been financially successful and beneficial, providing a positive return. They express concern that the council's proposed shift to a non-commercial forestry model would introduce higher costs, resulting in a negative financial impact for the community. Additionally, the comment suggests that the council's proposal may be influenced by personal opinions of the councillors rather than reflecting the broader interests of the ratepayers.
