“Last Thursday of the Month” Meet-Up
Many thanks to all those who came along to the meeting last night, in particular to Andrew Montague for delivering his presentation, on making good submissions to the council, to the Planning and Urban Form Linkage Group.
We hope to hold regular meetings this year on the “last Thursday of the month” for PPN members to come together, find out more about the network, and get to know one another’s organisations.
Our next “last Thursday of the month” meeting will be on Thursday 24 February, from 7.00pm – 8.30pm: Guest speaker to be confirmed.
Please save the date.
