This decision is expected to improve the overall market experience for residents and vendors alike.

The proposed changes to the markets policy follow a public exhibition where only one supportive piece of feedback was received. The Lord Mayor moved to discuss the revisions, highlighting the importance of good regulation that aligns with community support.
