  • 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.

Simple, sunny, lazy, memorable. Regenerating. This publication gives an over- view of the Bawley Coast area, its history and its present. There is also information about our coastal retreat, Bawley Bush Cottages. We hope this guide improves your ex- perience of this beautiful piece of Australian coast and hinterland. Here on the Bawley Coast geological history, evidence of aboriginal occupation and the more recent settler past are as easily visible as our beaches, lakes and cafes. Our coast remains relatively unspoiled by many of the trappings of town life. Recreation, sustain- ability and environmental protection are our high priorities. Landcare, dunecare and the protection of endangered species are examples of environ- mental activities important to our community.

The Hon Gladys Berejiklian MP Premier Parliament House SYDNEY NSW 2000 Dear Premier, Report – NSW Bushfire Inquiry In January 2020 you announced the establishment of the NSW Bushfire Inquiry, noting it was to be completed by 31 July 2020. We now submit the final report of that Inquiry. The 2019-20 bush fires were some of the worst in the world and in recorded history. The Inquiry has worked to understand what happened during the 2019-20 bush fire season and how it was different to seasons that have come before. It makes 76 recommendations for future improvements to how NSW plans and prepares for, and responds to, bush fires. Some of these recommendations are for immediate action; others for actions that need to start now but will take some time to complete. Noting the breadth of the Inquiry’s Terms of Reference, the recommendations range from improvements to operational systems and processes through to significant research and strategic policy frameworks that require further development and consultation with key stakeholders. In presenting this final report we wish to acknowledge the assistance of many people – those who took the time to write submissions or talk to the Inquiry; the NSW fire agencies; colleagues from government departments in NSW and other jurisdictions; colleagues in industry, research organisations, and professional associations; and the Secretariat and Advisors to the Inquiry drawn from several government departments who worked hard to help us make sense of a complex matter.
