Summary of Local Government Boundaries Commission comments The Boundaries Commission has reviewed the Delegate’s Report on the proposed merger of Pittwater Council and part of Warringah Council to determine whether it shows the legislative process has been followed and the Delegate has taken into account all the factors required under the Local Government Act 1993 (the Act). The Commission has assessed that: the Delegate’s Report shows that the Delegate has undertaken all the processes required by section 263 of the Act, the Delegate’s Report shows that the Delegate has adequately considered all the factors required by section 263(3) of the Act, with the exception of the factors listed under subsections 263(3)(e2) (employment impacts) and 263(3)(e5) (diverse communities), and the Delegate’s recommendation in relation to the proposed merger is supported by the Delegate’s assessment of these factors. 2.

Communication Licence Rent
Communication licences Fact sheet Communication licence rent In November 2018, the NSW Premier had the Independent Pricing and Regulatory Tribunal (IPART) undertake a review of Rental arrangements for communication towers on Crown land. In November 2019, IPART released its final report to the NSW Government. To provide certainty to tenure holders while the government considers the report, implementation of any changes to the current fee structure will apply from the next renewal or review on or after 1 July 2021. In the interim, all communication tenures on Crown land will be managed under the 2013 IPART fee schedule, or respective existing licence conditions, adjusted by the consumer price index where applicable. In July 2014, the NSW Government adopted all 23 recommendations of the IPART 2013 report, including a rental fee schedule. Visit www.ipart.nsw.gov.au to see the IPART 2013 report. Density classification and rent calculation The annual rent for communication facilities located on a standard site depends on the type of occupation and the location of the facilities. In line with the IPART 2013 report recommendations, NSW is divided into four density classifications, and these determine the annual rent for each site. Table 1 defines these classifications. Annexure A further details the affected local government areas and urban centres and localities (UCLs) of the classifications. Figure 1 shows the location of the classifications. A primary user of a site who owns and maintains the communication infrastructure will incur the rent figures in Table 2. A co-user of a site will be charged rent of 50% that of a primary user. -

Local Government Responses to Urban Consolidation Policy: Meeting Housing Targets in Northern Sydney
Local Government Responses to Urban Consolidation Policy: Meeting Housing Targets in Northern Sydney THESIS PROJECT Planning and Urban Development Program The Faculty of the Built Environment University of New South Wales Lauren Baroukh 3158821 - i - ABSTRACT Urban consolidation is the central housing policy guiding future residential development in the existing urban areas of Sydney. In accordance with the Sydney Metropolitan Strategy and subsequently elaborated in various Subregional Strategies, councils are required to achieve housing targets and accommodate higher density housing within their Local Government Areas. This thesis examines how councils are implementing these targets and achieving the urban consolidation objectives defined within strategic planning documents. It provides an analysis of council responses, primarily through the rezoning of land within revised Local Environmental Plans and local housing strategies. The thesis examines the factors which councils consider when selecting sites for higher density housing, such as proximity to town centres and public transport, the capacity of existing infrastructure and services, preserving the character of low density areas and determining appropriate building heights. The research indicates that councils are beginning to implement the housing targets and achieving many of the objectives suggested within the Sydney Metropolitan Strategy. In particular, the thesis identifies the issue of infrastructure provision as requiring further consideration by councils and state agencies. Higher density housing within existing urban areas needs to be appropriately located and planned in a way that responds to the unique characteristics of the locality. - ii - ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Special thanks go to Christine Steinmetz for her valuable advice, guidance and support which is much appreciated. I would also like to thank the interviewees for their time and insights which have made a valuable contribution to this project. -
