Outdoor Trading Submission Online Form

Matters raised in submissions should relate to the impact that the proposal may have on property, street or community, such as non-compliance with CN's Outdoor Trading Policy, noise, pedestrian or vehicular impacts.

If you choose to make a submission in objection to an outdoor trading proposal, the reasons for the objection should relate specifically to the current proposal and not to existing or historical concerns. Matters that are not directly relevant will not be taken into consideration in the assessment of the application. Existing issues are generally not matters for consideration.

If you require further advice, please contact our Duty Officer on 4974 2000 to clarify any matters that may not be clear to you. However, you will need to form your own opinion, as to whether to lodge a submission and the reasons for any such submission.

Any submission made, may be obtained under The Government Information (Public Access) Act 2009 (GIPA) and is considered ‘Open Access Information’. 'Open Access Information' is made available to the public and therefore is NOT confidential.

CN will remove personal information from the submission it provides to the public in accordance with the Information and Privacy Commission’s (IPC) guidelines.

Where necessary, a copy of your submission may also be reproduced and provided to authorised third parties associated with the application.

You will receive an email acknowledging receipt of your submission.

The assessment officer assigned to the application will consider each submission. If the assessment officer considers it necessary, they may contact you to discuss your concerns (so please always provide your contact details).

Petitions will be considered as a single submission to an application, irrespective of the number of signatories on a petition. Any correspondence will only be provided to the person who submitted the petition.

Only relevant matters, will be considered when assessing the application. Matters that are not directly relevant to the application, will not be taken into consideration in the assessment of the application.

CN does not respond to specific or individual concerns raised in submissions before determination. After the application is determined, you will be notified in writing of the outcome.

Submissions received after the notification closing date may not be considered. If you require an extension to the time period nominated, please contact us in writing prior to the due date, for the assessing officer to determine whether an extension will be granted.

Extensions will only be granted in exceptional circumstances and will be for a maximum of seven calendar days.

If you are making a submission and have previously made or will be making a political donation or gift, please read the following information carefully.

The Environmental Planning and Assessment Act 1979 (the Act) requires you to disclose any 'reportable political donations' and 'gifts' made by yourself or any 'associate' within the period commencing two years before the submission is made and ending when the application is determined.

Visit the Political Donations and Gifts page to learn more and if required, download a Political Donations and Gifts Disclosure Form to attach with your submission.
