La Montagne Promenade Realignment: Final Days to Comment

Loading player...
This week on Uncensored we focus on the 13 December deadline for public comment on the La Montagne walkway realignment.

EDTEA has classified this as a new structure in a high-risk coastal zone.
Responsibility for repairs after storm damage remains unclear, as KDM’s maintenance plan does not cover this section.

Once authorisation is issued, reversal is extremely difficult.
When no comments are submitted, silence is recorded as consent.

This episode takes you step by step through how to submit your comment.
No technical language. One email is enough.

The deadline is 13 December.
