Inefficiencies in transport links drive up the costs of doing business in the Illawarra and compromise future opportunities for market expansion. There are strong concerns that without effective planning and action now to address this issue, the projected expansion in the passenger and freight movement task over the next 20 years will see the transport and logistics costs for business increase significantly.

  • 1. UNDERSTANDING of the PROJECT REQUIREMENTS Austral Understands That the Project Will Be Assessed Under Part 4 of the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act 1979
    Reference: 1988 27 August 2020 Kelly MacDonald Principle Civil Engineer Indesco PO Box 504 Wollongong NSW 2500 Dear Kelly, RE: PRELIMINARY HISTORICAL HERITAGE ASSESSMENT FOR HENRY PARKES DRIVE (LOT 442, DP1201831), KIAMA DOWNS, NEW SOUTH WALES Austral Archaeology (Austral) has been engaged by Indesco to provide Preliminary Historical Archaeological Assessment for a planning proposal to rezone Lot 442 DP1201831, Henry Parkes Drive, Kiama Downs, New South Wales (NSW) [the study area] (Figure 7.1, Figure 7.2 and Figure 7.3). The study area consists of the entirety of Lot 442, DP1201831 the cadastral information of the lots surrounding the study area are shown in Figure 7.4. The proposed impacts from the planning proposal are likely to consist of the subdivision of the study area into residential lots. This will consist of a variety of cut and fill works throughout the study area, construction of footings, roadways, subterranean piping and construction related excavations for the development of a residential subdivision. The land clearing and earthworks required for this construction have the potential to remove any archaeological relics that may be present within the study area. 1. UNDERSTANDING OF THE PROJECT REQUIREMENTS Austral understands that the project will be assessed under Part 4 of the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act 1979. A Preliminary Historical Heritage Assessment has been undertaken to determine whether any heritage values within the study area will be impacted as part of the planning proposal. The study area does not contain any heritage items that are listed in either the Shellharbour Local Environmental Plan 2013 (Shellharbour LEP) or the Kiama Local Environmental Plan 2011 (Kiama LEP), which is demonstrated in Figure 7.5.

  • Beaches and Dune Vegetation
    PO Box 38 GERRINGONG NSW 2534 [email protected] 17 December 2020 BY EMAIL Sarah Lees Director – Southern Region NSW Department of Planning, Industry & Environment [email protected] Dear Madam Re Submission on Draft Illawarra Shoalhaven Regional Plan 2041 Hereinafter the abovementioned Plan is referred to as “the Draft Plan”. Beaches and dune vegetation As shown in some of the quotes below, the Draft Plan states that management of coastal areas “must” protect homes and infrastructure, natural shorelines and beaches; that Councils prepare studies and plans to manage these risks, and that the NSW Government “will continue to support these processes” through Coastal Management and Floodplain Risk Management program. • “This year, of all years, has shown how strategic planning must adapt to meet changing circumstances and needs. Many communities are still reeling from the devastating bushfires and floods, and the COVID-19 pandemic has shown how the region's natural assets – its beaches, parks, open spaces, leafy streets – are key to public life.” (page 8 – Foreword) • “Beaches, parks, gardens and sports fields, leafy streets, libraries, museums and galleries, are all key to public life. The safety and wellbeing of people and the coastal and rural lifestyles on offer will be maximised by integrating land use planning with planning for natural hazards, resilience, open space and waterway health processes.” (page 44 – A sustainable and resilient region) 1 • “Management of coastal areas must protect homes and infrastructure, as well as the natural shorelines and beaches. Areas are naturally prone to flooding due to the region's location between the ocean and the escarpment where water flows towards the sea.
