Commission to Review Feedback On Southlands
The Ministry of Public Works and Environment noted the conclusion of the public consultation on the draft management plan for Southlands Park, with the Parks Commission now set to review all submissions before finalising its recommendations.
A Ministry of Public Works and Environment spokesperson said, “The public consultation period for the draft management plan for Southlands Park has now concluded.
“The Ministry extends its sincere thanks to all individuals and organisations who took the time to share their perspectives. In response to the high level of public interest, the deadline was extended to ensure that as many residents as possible had the opportunity to participate.
“With the consultation now closed, the Parks Commission will begin a thorough review of all submissions received. This independent analysis is a critical step in the process, and the Commission will carefully consider every contribution before finalising its recommendations.
“For clarity, the draft management plan is separate and unrelated to any proposals for commercial development at Southlands. Proposals concerning potential commercial activity remain under review by the Department of Planning through its own statutory process.
“These are two distinct processes, and the conclusion of the draft management plan consultation does not affect or determine the outcome of the Department of Planning’s consideration of development applications.
“The Ministry acknowledges that Southlands, once privately held and inaccessible to the wider community, now presents an opportunity for residents to establish a new relationship with this now public space.
“The Parks Commission’s review will reflect this reality by giving full and careful consideration to all submissions received.”
