With markets contributing socially, culturally and economically to the region the new policy is designed to assist by providing a consistent approach to managing regular markets across the region.

The public exhibition period has been extended to ensure the community has ample opportunity to provide feedback.

The policy outlines requirements around the use of public spaces and aims to support market organisers to run successful events for the benefit of the whole community.

It applies to all regular markets taking place throughout the MidCoast region on Council owned land, or Council controlled public land – including farmers markets.

For further information head to Council’s website www.midcoast.nsw.gov.au/Have-Your-Say where you can view the document and provide feedback until Monday 14 January, 2019.
