Meeting space and environmental needs

The preparation of the West Rasanae RDTR is expected to pay attention to space utilization, environmental sustainability, as well as the balance between development and environmental carrying capacity.

For the community, the direction of the discussion is important because it concerns how regional space will be used and how environmental considerations will be placed in the planning.

Public consultation is a forum for gathering input, suggestions and views to improve the substance of the RDTR and KLHS. Both documents are still in the process of being drafted.
