Summer at the Foreshore Summer Foreshore Enhancement Program 2019/20 Summer at the Foreshore www.bayside.nsw.gov.au Summer Foreshore Enhancement Program 2019/20 The Bayside foreshore is a popular destination and an inner suburban oasis for locals. Over summer, we have a significant increase in visitors and usage of the foreshore area of Botany Bay from Kyeemagh to Dolls Point. This year Council has developed a summer foreshore program to help reduce our environmental footprint, preserve our beautiful marine life and beaches, and maintain safe and enjoyable community spaces for residents and visitors alike. What are some of the new program initiatives to the foreshore? Smoke Free Zone Breathe Easy Trial New smoke free trial zone from the start of Little Grand Parade (Bestic St) to the Brighton Kiosk. Education Campaign Watch your Butt You will see our ‘Watch Your Butt’ anti-smoking campaign signs targeting cigarette litter. Working Together The Summer Rangers are back with additional Police patrols and increased Waste and Parks services. They will be roaming the foreshore, attending events and encouraging visitors to act responsibly. Waste Education Don’t be a Tosser Council is providing extra rubbish bins, litter collections and beach cleans. We want to make it easy to keep our beaches, parks and foreshore reserves clean – and protect marine life. Bin Capacity Smart Sensors Overflowing bins are unsightly and lead to environmental damage. Bin sensors enable Council to know exactly which bins are ready to be emptied and collect data about peak usage periods. Waste Education with Local Businesses We recognise that we have a key role to play in the protection of the environment, but equally, we have a responsibility to provide the wider community with the knowledge and tools to preserve the environment. We’re working with local businesses to educate and to help provide resources encouraging their customers to act responsibly. Contact Council for more information on volunteer programs for community members and corporate businesses. What’s happening on the foreshore this summer? We are fortunate to boast a variety of events over the summer period! Come along and join in the festivities.

After the ceremony at 10am, enjoy a free delicious sausage sandwich. Have you seen our new residents at the foreshore? The Crab 2018 Sculptures @ Bayside Acquisition Prize Winner Artist: Joy Heylen The inspiration for the Crab sculpture is a play on scale; creating a GIANT momentous presence of a crustacean. The performance of Corten Steel blended with laser cut organic inspired patterns, capture industrial engineering and design concepts which fuse feminine and masculine intrigue. Corten, which is high tensile steel creates the strength in steel, and the orange colour of the steel changes naturally in the marine environment. She is also colloquially called ‘Big Bertha’. She has travelled far and wide in Australia and has been further developed to create a narrative about the unique red crab migration with animatronic moving baby crabs. Come Out, Come Out Hippo, Wherever You Are 2019 Sculptures @ Bayside Acquisition Prize Winner Artist: Gillie & Marc Schattner The game of hide and seek conjures feelings from our childhoods of safety, love, and joy. Gillie and Marc believe that all people and all creatures have the right to live in a world where safety and love are the rule, not the exception. Unfortunately, safety is often seen as a privilege rather than a right for many species of animal and endangered species have had to hide from humankind for far too long. With Come Out, Come Out Hippo, Wherever You Are the artists call on the world to welcome these species out from hiding, into a place of safety and love. THE CRAB GENERAL HOLMES DRIVE KYEEMAGH C-Side Restaurant COME OUT HIPPO How can you play your part this summer? Summer will be safe, clean and fun for everyone if we all play our part. Here's how you can play your part this summer. Use the Bins Dumped rubbish on our beaches, parks and streets can end up in our bay and endanger marine life. It also impacts on how we enjoy our beautiful public spaces. Please leave no litter behind! Butt Out We encourage all smokers, whether they are at the beach or elsewhere, to dispose of cigarette butts properly to ensure our beaches remain litter free. Responsible Dog Ownership We know dogs love our beaches and parks too, so we have an off-leash area at Kyeemagh Beach, between Gate 60 and Gate 61 from 4pm and 10am only. Please keep your dogs on a leash in all public places, including streets and footpaths. Pet owners must carry appropriate waste bags and clean up after their dogs. Keep us informed To ensure our foreshore stays welcoming please report any dumped rubbish or issues on 1300 581 299 Complaints about smoking in public spaces should be lodged with NSW Health Department on 1800 357 412 Bayside Customer Service Centres Rockdale Library 444-446 Princes Highway, Rockdale Westfield Eastgardens 152 Bunnerong Road, Eastgardens Monday to Friday 8:30am – 4:30pm Saturday 9am – 1pm Phone 1300 581 299 | 9562 1666 Email [email protected] Web www.bayside.nsw.gov.au.

  • Frequently Asked Questions & Answers Reopening East West
    Frequently Asked Questions & Answers Reopening East West Runway Q: How many runways does Sydney Airport have? A: Sydney Airport has three runways: • East-west runway, also known as runway 07/25 • Main north-south runway, also known as runway 16R/34L • Parallel north-south runway, also known as runway 16L/34R Q: When are the three runways typically used? A: The Australian Government agency responsible for air traffic control – Airservices Australia – manages runway usage to ensure safety. Weather – especially wind direction and strength and rain – is a major factor in deciding which runways can be safely used for take-off and landing. Aircraft generally take-off and land into the wind, or with minimal tail wind. Based on wind direction, air traffic control will decide which runway is used at any given time. However, the decision to take-off or land ultimately rests with the pilot-in-command of the aircraft. Q: What is “noise sharing” and how is it implemented? A: At Sydney Airport, the Australian Government’s noise sharing policy – known as the Long Term Operating Plan, or LTOP – also influences when a particular runway is used. The LTOP is a program to manage aircraft noise from Sydney Airport. It aims to make sure flights are sent over water and non-residential land, as much as possible. Where this is not possible, it aims to share noise across communities in Sydney and provide periods of respite from noise. It provides ten different ways of using the airport’s three runways and associated flight paths, some of which involve use of the east-west runway.

  • Robin Nicolle My Essay on the Beautiful Botany
    Name: Robin Nicolle My Essay on the Beautiful Botany Bay 2018 Ron Rathbone Local History Competition Introduction 1 There are many beautiful places around the world but there is only one Bayside Council and you can only find it here in Sydney, New South Wales, Australia. The Bayside encompasses various suburbs including Arncliffe, Wolli Creek and Rockdale to name a few. It is an area rich not only in history, that dates back to 1770 when the first settlers arrived but also in architecture, culture and a big variety of people from all corners of the globe. Since people first settled in the Bayside Council, most of the development and infrastructure has been slow however the decisions made by a lot of influential people over the last 200 years have helped to shape it into the thriving community that we know today. In short the Bayside Council continues to grow every year and we want it to be well established as one of the best places in the world to live. For my essay I decided to focus on two of the most important elements of the Bayside Council, the History and the Architecture Architecture ANSI POPO Cr CIP,O. 5' 00, -PrJ al SO" BUILDING ELEVATION History of Botany Bay and Surrounding Suburbs 2 British Settlement The history of Botany Bay dates as far back as Sunday 29th April 1770.

  • Rates Explained Council Issues Its Rate Notices for the Upcoming Twelve (12) Months in July Each Year
    Rates Explained Council issues its rate notices for the upcoming twelve (12) months in July each year. Your rates notice will contain details of all your rates and annual charges, due dates and amounts, and all the payment options available. Your first payment whether paying in full or by instalments is due by the 31 August. If you choose to pay by instalments, your remaining instalments will be due on the 30 November, 28 February and 31 May. Reminder notices will be posted to you in the month prior to each due date. Rates are Council’s primary source of ongoing income that is used to provide essential infrastructure and services to our community. These rates are determined in accordance with the provisions of the Local Government Act 1993. Rates, Levies and Charges 1. General rates Your property is categorized for rating purposes as either residential, business, mining or farmland depending on the dominant use of your property. Some properties may be eligible for mixed development rating where the property has a mixed use. Rates are calculated using: The land valuation supplied by the NSW Valuer General; and Using the advalorem rate per $ of land value adopted each year by Council for your rate category. Note: if the valuation multiplied by the rate per $ falls below the minimum rate, a minimum rate will be charged. LAND VALUATIONS New land values are currently issued by the Valuer General every three years. As the Bayside Council’s overall rates income is limited by rate pegging, an increase (or decrease) in your land value does not necessarily mean a corresponding increase (or decrease) in your rates.

    1 Introduction This chapter provides a brief overview of the proposed New M5 project, including its location and key features, and outlines the benefits of the project. This chapter also describes the purpose and structure of this environmental impact statement (EIS). 1.1 Project overview NSW Roads and Maritime Services (Roads and Maritime), is seeking approval to construct and operate the New M5 (the project), which would comprise a new, tolled multi-lane road link between the existing M5 East Motorway, east of King Georges Road, and St Peters.

Approval is being sought under Part 5.1 of the NSW Environmental Planning and Assessment Act 1979 (EP&A Act). The project is declared to be State significant infrastructure (SSI) under section 115U(2) of the EP&A Act by reason of the operation of clause 14 and Schedule 3 of the State Environmental Planning Policy (State and Regional Development) 2011. Accordingly, the project is subject to assessment under Part 5.1 of the EP&A Act and requires the approval of the Minister for Planning. An EIS is therefore required. For the purpose of this planning application for the project, Roads and Maritime is the proponent.
