Acceptance of CID proposal
11 Acceptance of CID proposal
The Authority must, if satisfied that a CID proposal has been properly made under Division 1, accept the CID proposal.
Despite subsection (1), the Authority may reject a CID proposal—
if, in the Authority’s opinion, the CID proposal may unreasonably exclude members of the public from spaces or areas where the public otherwise have a right of access, or
if, having considered the report referred to in section 10(3), the Authority believes—
there has been inadequate consultation on the CID proposal, or
there is no reasonable prospect that each local council whose area is within the boundaries of the CID will support the CID proposal, as referred to in section 14, or
if, in the Authority’s opinion, there is not a reasonable prospect of the CID proposal achieving the required support in a CID proposal ballot,
Example—
The Authority believes there is insufficient evidence provided of community or council support for the CID proposal.
