  • Glebe Island and White Bay Master Plan Incorporating the Ports Improvement Program and SEPP 61 Exempt and Complying Development November 2000 Introduction
    Glebe Island and White Bay Master Plan Incorporating the Ports Improvement Program and SEPP 61 Exempt and Complying Development November 2000 Introduction Glebe Island and White Bay form part of the area covered by State Regional Environmental Plan 26 (SREP 26). The State Government is committed to Sydney Harbour continuing to be a working harbour. Under the provisions of the SREP the site is zoned for “Port and Employment” uses. SREP 26 provides that development consent for development in the Glebe Island and White Bay Port Area is subject to a Master Plan adopted by the Minister for Urban Affairs and Planning. The Glebe Island and White Bay Master Plan will control and direct the future development of the Port facilities. The consent authority must take the Master Plan into consideration when determining a development application. The Master Plan requires a Ports Improvement Program to be established. The Ports Improvement Program includes guidelines that will enhance the appearance of the port through landscaping, signage and selected colour schemes and provide standards against which development will be assessed. This document is divided into two parts: Part A Master Plan Part B Ports Improvement Program Each part is an independent document. Future development needs to consider both parts. In order to provide a comprehensive set of planning instruments relating to the Glebe Island and White Bay Master plan area, a copy of State Environmental Planning Policy 61 is attached. This provides a simpler approvals process for routine proposals and clarifies the extent of exempt and complying development on port land. Letters from the Department of Urban Affairs and Planning indicating adoption of the Master Plan, approval of the Port Improvement Program and gazettal of SEPP 61 have also been inserted in front of each relevant part.

  • Ecology of Pyrmont Peninsula 1788 - 2008
    Transformations: Ecology of Pyrmont peninsula 1788 - 2008 John Broadbent Transformations: Ecology of Pyrmont peninsula 1788 - 2008 John Broadbent Sydney, 2010. Ecology of Pyrmont peninsula iii Executive summary City Council’s ‘Sustainable Sydney 2030’ initiative ‘is a vision for the sustainable development of the City for the next 20 years and beyond’. It has a largely anthropocentric basis, that is ‘viewing and interpreting everything in terms of human experience and values’(Macquarie Dictionary, 2005). The perspective taken here is that Council’s initiative, vital though it is, should be underpinned by an ecocentric ethic to succeed. This latter was defined by Aldo Leopold in 1949, 60 years ago, as ‘a philosophy that recognizes[sic] that the ecosphere, rather than any individual organism[notably humans] is the source and support of all life and as such advises a holistic and eco-centric approach to government, industry, and individual’(http://dictionary.babylon.com). Some relevant considerations are set out in Part 1: General Introduction. In this report, Pyrmont peninsula - that is the communities of Pyrmont and Ultimo – is considered as a microcosm of the City of Sydney, indeed of urban areas globally. An extensive series of early views of the peninsula are presented to help the reader better visualise this place as it was early in European settlement (Part 2: Early views of Pyrmont peninsula). The physical geography of Pyrmont peninsula has been transformed since European settlement, and Part 3: Physical geography of Pyrmont peninsula describes the geology, soils, topography, shoreline and drainage as they would most likely have appeared to the first Europeans to set foot there.
