The document, Sanusi said, would be presented to the public from February 19 to March 27.

He said the revised Alimosho Model City Plan would be made accessible in various locations throughout the community for four weeks.

Sanusi quoted Oluyinka Olumide, the commissioner for physical planning and urban development, as saying that the planning document would allow for robust participation and ownership.

“The planned document will be available at nine locations: Alimosho local government secretariat, Alimosho, Agbado Oke-Odo LCDA secretariat, Abule-Egba, Ayobo-Ipaja LCDA secretariat, Ipaja, Egbe-Idimu LCDA secretariat, Isheri, Mosan-Okunola LCDA secretariat, Ipaja.

Sanusi also said that there would be a dedicated stakeholder engagement meeting after the public review period, to discuss the plan in more detail and address specific concerns from different groups within the community.

The engagement would be held on April 4, at the Noble Castle Event Centre, Igando.
