    EUROBODALLA NATURAL HISTORY SOCIETY Inc. PO Box 888 MORUYA NSW 2537 www.enhs.org.au NEWSLETTER NUMBER 153 JULY 2012 Threatened species need our help Will you ‘adopt a beach’ for the shorebirds? It‟s rapidly approaching that time of the year when we start seeing more of our shorebirds and seabirds appearing on our local beaches. Each year during spring and summer the National Parks and Wildlife Service puts a program in place that focuses on monitoring and protecting these birds, particularly the „famous four‟ - Hooded Plover, Little Tern and the Pied and Sooty Oystercatcher. The program is volunteer-based and it would be nearly impossible to do the work required without the help of dedicated people taking an active role in the conservation of these threatened species. Do you spend time on the beaches and estuaries in your area? Do you own a pair of binoculars and a notebook? If the answer is yes to these questions then you can help with the program this year! The NPWS is looking for anyone who visits the beaches and nearby lakes regularly to keep a special eye out for our „famous four‟ and this year the Hooded Plover takes centre stage. The Hooded Plover is currently on the „critically endangered‟ list in NSW. There are only 50 known individuals located between Wollongong and the Victorian border. In the Eurobodalla over the 2010/11 season, a pair of adults was reported from the Tilba/Bermagui area and a pair of immature birds was photographed at Potato Point. Hooded Plover can be seen at the water‟s edge where they feed on prey: crustaceans, marine worms, small insects and bivalves.

  • 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.

    INDEPENDENT REVIEW PANEL SOUTH COAST SENSITIVE URBAN LANDS REVIEW _________________________________________________________________________ REPORT TO THE HONOURABLE FRANK SARTOR MP MINISTER FOR PLANNING OCTOBER 2006 SOUTH COAST INDEPENDENT REVIEW PANEL The Hon Frank Sartor MP Minister for Planning Level 34, Governor Macquarie Tower 1 Farrer Place SYDNEY NSW 2000 Dear Minister, RE: SOUTH COAST INDEPENDENT REVIEW PANEL Following the release of the Draft South Coast Regional Strategy, you appointed me to chair a Panel to investigate the suitability for development of some sixteen sites in the region. We received some 188 submissions and held public hearings over six days in the towns of Nowra, Batemans Bay and Bega as well as in Sydney. Fifty one people appeared at the public hearings. Having given due regard to all the submissions, we present our report, with recommendations, on each of the sites. It is important to read the recommendations along with the body of the report, especially the planning assessment and the environmental assessment sections of each site’s evaluation. We have also suggested some planning issues for further discussion that arose during our investigations and deliberations. My colleagues on the Panel, Mr Vince Berkhout and Dr David Robertson have brought considerable experience and expertise to the task, and we are unanimous in our recommendations. Of the total area already zoned for potential development (about 2200ha) we recommended less than 30% to be developed. Of all the land investigated (about 5900ha) we recommended that almost 30% be for environmental conservation. We were very ably assisted in all the preparations for our meetings and public hearings and preparation of the report by Mr Paul Freeman.

  • South Coast Housing and Land Monitor
    South Coast Housing and Land Monitor 2010-2011 Report October 2012 © State of New South Wales through the Department of Planning and Infrastructure www.planning.nsw.gov.au July 2013 ISBN 978-0-7313-3628-9 Disclaimer: While every reasonable effort has been made to ensure that this document is correct at the time of printing, the State of New South Wales, its agents and employees, disclaim any and all liability to any person in respect of anything or the consequences of anything done or omitted to be done in reliance upon the whole or any part of this document. 2 Introduction The South Coast Housing and Land Monitor (Monitor) is a product arising out of the Department’s South Coast Regional Strategy (February 2007) and a key action of the Settlement Planning Guidelines (August 2007). The Monitor applies to the South Coast Region of NSW, being the three local government areas of Shoalhaven, Eurobodalla and Bega Valley and is a collaboration between the Department and the three Councils. The Monitor tracks overall development, the types of development and land availability to provide a context for setting and reviewing settlement policy within the region. It is also designed to assist with the roll-out and servicing of new urban areas and infill redevelopment. This brings increased certainty to the planning process and ensures the orderly release of land and appropriate housing to meet the needs of future communities. Specifically, the Monitor: Collects historic data on lot capacity and dwelling construction Records capacity estimates for new residential lots and new dwellings across the range of housing types Forecasts annual greenfield lot release Identifies expected delivery of approved greenfield lots, and Records the ongoing supply and take up rates of rural residential development.

  • Planning for Coastal and Flood Hazards in a Changing Climate: Eurobodalla Shire Council Action
    Planning for coastal and flood hazards in a changing climate: Eurobodalla Shire Council action Council Name Eurobodalla Shire Council Web Address www.esc.nsw.gov.au Size 3,422 sq. km Population 37,714 (June, 2010) Awards Eurobodalla Shire Council’s Coastal and Flood Management Planner, Norm Lenehan was awarded the National Climate Change Adaptation Research Facility (NCCARF) Climate Adaptation Champions 2011 1. Background 1.1 Council profile Eurobodalla Shire is located on the South Coast of New South Wales about 300km from Sydney and 150km from Canberra. The Shire incorporates 112km of coastline, from North Batemans Bay to south of Tilba and extends 53km inland at the widest point. Eurobodalla local government area (LGA) is a rural, growing residential and resort area, with most of the population located along the coastal fringe, or living beside the lakes and rivers. The LGA has approximately 35 Intermittently Closed and Open Lakes and Lagoons (ICOLLs), one inlet and small coastal river and three large coastal rivers with catchments covering in excess of 1,500km2. While the LGA covers a total land area of over 3,400km2, about three-quarters is national park or state forest. Significant infrastructure in the Eurobodalla LGA which is vulnerable to riverine inundation and sea level rise includes Moruya Airport, Princes and Kings Highways, Batemans Bay Campus of University of Wollongong and Moruya Campus TAFE. The coastal location and proximity of Eurobodalla Shire to Canberra means there are a large number of investment properties. Consequently, 28 per cent of the rate base lives outside of the LGA. This, in conjunction with an ageing population, low-skilled employment base, high unemployment, low average household income and low growth rate of 1.2 per cent imposes considerable resource constraints on Council and issues for community consultation.
