The decisions will be discussed at a authority meeting with councils in March next year.

The authority was established in 1999 and is jointly owned by eight of the nine councils in the Braddon Electorate.

It’s currently based in Burnie, despite Burnie withdrawing from the authority in 2021, saying it wasn’t getting value for money from its membership, costing almost $160,000 a year.
