I agree with Owen’s assessment. If there is sufficient community support for changing the phrase to “shall” at the PPM - I’d define “sufficient community support” as a show of hands on that specific word choice, in addition to the discussion here - I see no need to require another public consultation in order to go to last call incorporating that change in terms.

I’m personally in favor of “shall", although I still support as written. Perfect as enemy of good, etc etc.

Thanks,
