Building Blocks 2021 Illawarra Shoalhaven BUILDING BLOCKS A PRACTICAL APPROACH TO INFRASTRUCTURE AND LAND SUPPLY Illawarra and Shoalhaven Edition August 2021 UDIA BUILDING BLOCKS NSW ILLAWARRA & SHOALHAVEN Message from the CEO Steve Mann UDIA NSW CEO The Illawarra Shoalhaven is at a crisis point as we face a rapidly decreasing supply of serviced land for development. The critical shortage of greenfield housing extends throughout the region and is having a major impact on deteriorating housing affordibility. House sales have seen up to a 50% lift beyond market expectations and we are well ahead of projected lot releases. This is the result of a combination of factors including record low interest rates, regional migration, government home purchase incentives and COVID-19 induced demand for space. Our 2018 UDIA NSW Building Blocks report proposed several enabling infrastructure projects for the Illawarra Shoalhaven to support greenfield housing in the key urban release areas. Over the past three years, not much has changed. In-migration is increasing, as people look for regional housing solutions out of Sydney. Whilst there have been lots released in West Lake Illawarra and apartment development in the Wollongong CBD and Kiama township, the pace of development is not keeping up with demand and house prices continue to climb. Over the past 12 months, we have seen house prices rise by more than 20% in Shoalhaven and 12% in Wollongong. Kiama now has an average house price of $1million. In June 2021, the Minister for Planning and Public Spaces released the Illawarra Shoalhaven Regional Plan 2041 and in August 2021, Transport for NSW (TfNSW) finalised the Illawarra Shoalhaven Regional Transport Plan. UDIA NSW supports these plans and our new Building Blocks Illawarra Shoalhaven 2021 report, prepared in collaboration with Cardno, identifies the critical enabling infrastructure needed to further support up to 500,000 people that will live in the region by 2041. To help achieve this, we request Government commits $136.6 million for six recommended water and sewer projects that will unblock 11,600 lots by 2024 in the West Lake Illawarra and Nowra-Bomaderry Urban Release Areas (URA). Illawarra and Shoalhaven With no funding allocated in the NSW Budget 2021-22 for critical enabling Partner water and sewer infrastructure to support growth in the Illawarra Shoalhaven, we are concerned that the region will continue to suffer from rising house prices, home rental increases, housing stress and homelessness. The development industry will also suffer due to a dwindling greenfield pipeline and a direct threat to construction jobs. The NSW Government needs to take urgent action to ramp up the delivery of enabling infrastructure to avoid dire consequences for jobs, housing affordability and the wider economy in the region. The recent announcement by the Minister for Planning and Public Spaces to establish a Regional Housing Taskforce to identify solutions to improve housing supply in regional NSW is a positive step and this Building Blocks report will be a key advocacy tool for the region. 2 UDIA BUILDING BLOCKS NSW ILLAWARRA & SHOALHAVEN Above: Coast, Manyana by Fountaindale Group Cover Image: Coast, Manyana by Fountaindale Group 3 UDIA BUILDING BLOCKS NSW ILLAWARRA & SHOALHAVEN West Lake Illawarra West Lake Illawarra is the primary Urban Release Area (URA) in the Illawarra Shoalhaven region and is proposed for 20,000 dwellings, or 60% of the total 30,000 new houses to be provided in the region by 2041. There are still large areas of unzoned land at West Lake Illawarra, including Calderwood, Cleveland, and Avondale. We have focused on the enabling infrastructure required to support zoned areas at Yallah Marshall Mount, North Macquarie and Tullimbar, which can result in greenfield housing being released in a three-year time frame. Building Blocks Illawarra Shoalhaven 2021 recommends four key critical infrastructure projects for the West Lake Illawarra URA, unlocking 8,100 lots within three years, and more in the medium term. These key projects are critical because without them development cannot proceed. The projects are: 1. Kembla Grange and Yallah Marshall Mount Sewage Pumping Station and associated Trunk Gravity Mains Capacity constraints require a major investment to ensure future development at Huntley, Cleveland and Avondale can proceed. There is also no capacity available to service proposed development at West Dapto Stage 3 and Yallah Marshall Mount. 2. Avondale Reservoir and Trunk Main Without a new reservoir, supply and pressure issues will continue to restrict development. 3. Calderwood Sewage Pumping Station, Rising Main and Trunk Main Future development on the northern side of Calderwood Road, including Town Centre East and the proposed school sites, are reliant on the future Calderwood sewage pumping station (SPS). The pump station was originally to be commissioned by end of 2021 but this has now pushed out to 2026 based on the latest Sydney Water Growth Servicing Plan. 4. Mt Terry Water Lead-In The Mt Terry Water Lead-In is required to service elevated pockets of lots within Calderwood especially those lots above Raised Level (RL) 60m.

  • Changes to Driver Licence Sanctions in Your CLSD Region
    Changes to Driver Licence Sanctions in Your CLSD Region In 2020, Revenue NSW introduced a hardship program focused on First Nations people and young people. As a result, the use of driver licence sanctions for overdue fine debt changed on Monday 28th September 2020 in some locations. How are overdue fines and driver licence sanctions related? If a person has overdue fines, their driver licence may be suspended. The driver licence suspension may be removed if the person: • pays a lump sum to Revenue NSW, or • enters a payment plan with Revenue NSW, or • is approved for a WDO. A driver licence suspension can be applied for multiple reasons, so even after being told that a driver licence suspension for unpaid fines has been removed, people should always double check that it is OK to drive by contacting Service NSW. Driver licence restrictions can also be put on interstate licences and cannot be removed easily. If you have a client in this situation, they should get legal advice. What has changed? Now, driver licence sanctions will not be imposed as a first response to unpaid fines for enforcement orders that were issued on or after 28 September 2020 to First Nations people and young people who live in the target locations. What are the target locations? Locations that the Australian Bureau of Statistics classifies as: • very remote, • remote • outer regional, and • Inner regional post codes where at least 9% of the population are First Nations People. Included target locations on the South Coast are the towns of Batemans Bay, Bega, Bodalla, Eden, Eurobodalla, Mogo, Narooma, Nowra Hill, Nowra Naval PO, Merimbula, Pambula, Tilba and Wallaga Lake.

  • Micro Brewery at 466 Kangaroo Valley Rd the Above Mentioned DA Is
    Deputation to Council DA 20/1222 – Micro Brewery at 466 Kangaroo Valley Rd The above mentioned DA is scheduled for discussion and vote next Tuesday 2th March with a recommendation of approval. The community has only been notified of these latest developments in the last few days and we ask that in the interest of procedural fairness and transparency that the vote be deferred to enable appropriate community response to the new submissions. This DA should be rejected or at least the vote deferred based on the following justifications: Procedural Fairness 1. Residents who objected to the DA should have been notified as to the additional documents submitted in the period since our objections were lodged. Nothing has been received despite verbal enquiries in 2020. 2. COVID restrictions until very recently have prohibited residents from meeting to discuss the issue. 3. Progress on the DA application appears to have proceeded to the point of an approval recommendation by council staff without our knowledge until Friday 26th February with a vote scheduled 2 working days later. Some people on the list have not received any notice at all. 4. A crucial Supplementary Traffic Statement with projections of traffic and accidents that persuaded staff to recommend approval was not made available to residents. 5. NSW Police responded twice to referrals predicting an increase in serious motor vehicle collisions. 6. The process has not been open, transparent and fair to the community. 7. Further, a brief review of documents now obtained indicates a recommendation that traffic be diverted along Tourist Road. This impacts the residents of Tourist Road who again have not been notified and are unable to respond to this development.

The Biodiversity Conservation Trust will invest $240 million in the period to June 2021 to support landholders who wish to participate in private land conservation. Landholders who enter voluntary agreements to conserve and manage biodiversity can access a range of funding programs that will diversify income streams, with potential for long-term annual payments. The Shoalhaven area is a hotspot for biodiversity as it is an area where species from the Sydney area and species from the far south coast overlap. Shoalhaven City Council has recently entered into one of these arrangements for land it owns in Narrawallee and another agreement has also been made at Worrigee. Developers of large projects in areas adjoining the coast, who are required to purchase land to offset loss of biodiversity, are seeking suitable sites for these offset requirements. Your property, Manyana Beach Estate, would be highly suitable for an arrangement of this type as an Endangered Ecological Community has been identified on site and the presence of migratory species, the black-faced monarch and rufous fantail, strengthen the claim for preservation. Red Head Villages Association, representing the local community surrounding Manyana Beach Estate, would appreciate your interest in investigating whether some or all of your property could be used in the offset program.
