Event description

> Monday 28 October 2024, 5.30 to 7 pm

The NSW Department of Planning, Housing and Infrastructure has placed Council’s (EIS) on raising Clarrie Hall Dam on public exhibition. The exhibition end date is Wednesday 6 November 2024. Â
> Review the EIS and make a submission to the department through the NSW Planning Portal. Council cannot receive submissions on the department’s behalf.
View a hard copy of the EIS at our face-to-face information sessions, Murwillumbah and Tweed Heads offices, and the Tweed Heads, Kingscliff and Murwillumbah libraries.
Your voice is important. The NSW Government will consider all submissions received before making a recommendation to the Minister for Planning and Public Spaces, who will make the ultimate decision on whether the proposal can go ahead and what conditions would apply.
Raising the dam by 8.5 metres would almost triple its storage capacity and secure the Tweed’s water supply until at least 2065. This would ensure Council can continue to provide a safe, sustainable and affordable water supply for decades to come.
