    Section 2 Issues This section summarises the current issues facing the South West Local Area and provides directions to inform the LAP. 2 38 South West Local Area - Issues Paper Section 2 Liveable The Community Plan vision for 'Liveable' is: . A city that is well planned, attractive and sustainable; a city that provides affordable, attractive and sustainable housing; a city with high quality community assets; a city that protects and promotes its history and identity. 2.1.1 Current Urban form Urban form refers to the way the local area looks and feels. It includes dwelling types and their age, building height, the concentration of dwellings in a given area (or ‘density’), and the public domain areas including footpaths, roads, parks and plazas. Urban form also refers to how these elements integrate with natural features of the local area such as topography, bushlands and the areas around the Georges River and its tributaries. The existing urban form in the three local area centres – Panania, Panania Top of the Hill and East Hills – and the neighbourhood areas is discussed below. The role of the centres in Bankstown City has been previously identified in Council’s Residential Development Strategy as follows: Panania - Small Village Centre – this centre captures land within 400m of Panania Station. Panania Top of the Hill – Neighbourhood Centre - this centre captures land within 150m of the middle of the mainstreet. East Hills - Neighbourhood Centre – this centres capture land within 150m of the East Hills Railway Station.

    9 April 2020 Fei Chen Graduate Project Manager Tactical Group Dear Fei, Re: Non-Aboriginal Heritage Assessment: Moorebank Precinct West Stage 3 Artefact Heritage (Artefact) has been engaged by Tactical Group (Tactical), on behalf of the Sydney Intermodal Terminal Alliance (SIMTA), to prepare this non-Aboriginal heritage assessment to inform the Moorebank Precinct West (MPW) Stage 3 Environmental Impact Assessment. SIMTA has been issued Development Consent (SSD 5066) for MPW Stage 1 and (SSD 7709) for MPW Stage 2, under Part 4, Division 4.1 of the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act 1979 (EP&A Act), to construct and operate an intermodal terminal (IMT) and associated warehouses on the western side of Moorebank Avenue, Moorebank (the MPW site). It is understood that as part of MPW Stage 3, SIMTA propose to progressively subdivide the WPW site and establish a temporary works compound and associated road and underground utilities on the southern half of the MPW site. The purpose of this report is to provide a non-Aboriginal heritage assessment for the proposed works in accordance with the Planning Secretary’s Environmental Assessment Requirements (SEARs) issued for MPW Stage 3 (SSD 10431) on 20 March 2020. The report would inform the MPW Stage 3 EIS and confirm if the impacts will be consistent with the approved SSD 5066 and SSD 7709. A separate Aboriginal heritage assessment has also been prepared to inform MPW Stage 3. MPW Stage 3 Location The MPW site is generally bounded by the Georges River to the west, Moorebank Avenue to the east, the East Hills Railway Line to the south and the M5 Motorway to the north (Figure 1).
