Background 1.1 Council profile The Ku-ring-gai Council Local Government Area (LGA) is located on Sydney's upper north shore, about 16km from the Sydney CBD. The LGA is predominantly residential, but contains significant areas of bushland, parkland, and waterways with often steep terrain. The LGA includes 1,100ha of council-managed bushland and 1,646ha of National Park Estate (Ku-ring-gai Chase, Lane Cove and Garigal National Parks) of which the dominant vegetation type is eucalypt forest. Development is concentrated along ridge-tops and medium density housing has arisen in areas near key transport infrastructure, such as the Pacific Highway and railway stations. Recent growth has occurred in areas in existing urban areas of Gordon, North Turramurra and Turramurra. Significant built infrastructure includes the north shore railway line, the University of Technology Sydney (Ku- ring-gai Campus), the CSIRO Telecommunications and Industrial Physics facilities, the National Measurement Laboratory and a number of community service facilities such as aged-care centres and hospitals. The LGA supports one critically-endangered and four endangered ecological communities which are ‘likely to suffer a loss of species if subject to repeated high frequency fires’ (Ku-ring-gai Council, 2006 in Ku-ring-gai Council, 2011a).

He and wife Beatrice (1885?-1978) moved into Villa Maria in 1920 and developed a fine garden. In 1929 they moved to a new house, Santos, at 11 Yosefa Ave. “Mr Aley, the architect, and incidentally the owner, has planned both house and garden with the utmost care, so that each should combine to make a delightful whole. The irregular shape and sloping nature of the ground presented many difficulties, but at the same time abounded with possibilities, of which he has taken full advantage. The most important thing, in a house of this sort, and indeed in any house, is aspect, and here it is just right.

Nine out of the 10 councillors voted in favour of the motion to go forward with placing these heritage-significant items on public exhibition, before a report is prepared for the NSW Department of Planning and Environment. The properties, in Wahroonga, Turramurra, Lindfield, East Lindfield and Pymble were originally part of a group of 92 items, which were considered for listing in 2013 but got deferred. media_camera Killara’s Greengate Hotel is a heritage item media_camera Pymble’s Ku-ring-gai Town Hall is also on the list Reports dating back to 1987 had outlined their heritage significance. Wahroonga’s Matt Sexton was among a handful of residents to voice their objection to the council’s process of notifying affected households. His Wahroonga Ave house was one of those listed and he said the decision would impact negatively on his family. “The issue was the process itself ... we weren’t notified that our house, specifically, was subject to this heritage proposal. “Everybody in the room at the council meeting felt the same thing,” he said. “When we went to make a change to our laundry ... that’s how we found out that it was subject to a proposal.” media_camera Pymble’s Lanosa house which is linked to the infamous opening of the Sydney Harbour Bridge by protester Francis de Groot riding on a horse named Mick.(Source: KMC — Mr John Cottee) media_camera Cr Armstrong was the Labor candidate at the last state election Mr Sexton’s home was built in 1929 but he pointed out that 80 per cent of the structure was under 20 years old.
