Learning from the Past Research Project – Central Coast, NSW
Governance 21 Learning from the Past Research Project – Central Coast, NSW Rolf Fenner Australian Local Government Association Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT In 2003, the then Sustainable Ecosystems Division of the CSIRO was engaged by the Central Coast Region of NSW to undertake a detailed regional futures analysis based on a dynamic systems approach (Senge, 1992). A key component of such a research approach was the need to better understand and appreciate the historical context of previous regional planning policy initiatives. As a regional planning practitioner of several years experience, I was engaged by the CSIRO to undertake this “learning from the past” investigation. This paper summaries the value of such a research project by both examining the methodology adopted and findings arising from such an investigation. In short, the paper argues that as a consequence of reflecting on past policy experiences it is possible to better understand and appreciate what policy decisions were previously undertaken, and subsequently improve the opportunities for future policy decision making and implementation. A total of eighteen individuals were interviewed for the project. The regional participants chosen to be interviewed were a mixture of previous community leaders, politicians or senior professional bureaucrats. To encourage frank discussion and minimise any possibility of conflict of interests, all research participants at the time of interview were no longer in their substantive positions they once held. The process of identifying key individuals and relying on oral histories is not without methodological deficiencies. Whilst acknowledging these potential weaknesses, the project nevertheless was able to make a valuable contribution to regional planning on the Central Coast by identifying previous experiences and policy relationships as they related to matters of social, economic, environmental and local/ regional governance. -
Lifestyle – a Better Choice of Living
Lifestyle – a better choice of living The Central Coast offers a perfect mix of town and country life for those who make it their home. A superbly relaxed lifestyle in a magnificent, natural, pollution-free environment is available to all, with the benefits of city living never far away. Families are offered a safe, secure and caring environment with the opportunity to live life to the full. It is the reason so many people choose to live in the region. Areas of particular benefit are: • Residential property – the Central Coast offers the opportunity to acquire a quality residential property at values substantially lower than in the Sydney Metropolitan areas. • Shopping – the region is serviced by a large choice of retail shops with modern shopping centres offering goods and services that match any Sydney suburb. • Schooling – public and private schools provide a high standard of primary and secondary education. TAFE colleges, the Central Coast Community College and the University of Newcastle’s Central Coast Campus provide for tertiary learning. • Health – A healthy, pollution-free environment with hospital and medical facilities comparable with those in major cities. • Leisure – Central Coast residents have the opportunity to participate in a wide variety of leisure activities, all within 15 to 20 minutes of home. • Sport – The Central Coast could well be described as “A Sporting Mecca”. The choice of sport for all age groups is almost limitless. • Entertainment – there is always something interesting to do and see, from bars and clubs to live music, movies and restaurants, to seeing a national football game at the Central Coast stadium. -

It is connected to the city by rail, the M1 Pacific Motorway and the soon to be completed North Connex connecting the area with Western Sydney. It forms part of the Sydney Greater Metropolitan Area which has a population of some 3.5 million people. The local working population is 104,734 of which approximately 30% commute into the City each day for work. Most of these commuters would prefer to work locally. The Central Coast has a resident population of 337,000 people and will grow to over 400,000 in the next 25 years. Gosford is the Capital City of the Central Coast and is presently seeing unprecedented investment. The NSW Government has made a commitment to the growth of the region and is investing almost a billion dollars in support of that growth while at the same time private investors have invested a similar amount with plans to spend more. -

Research NSW Retail Market Overview • July 2007 Contents Market Indicators 2 Economic Overview 2 Sydney CBD Retail 3 Major & Super Regional 4 Regional Centres 5 Sub Regional Centres 6 Neighbourhood Centres 7 Bulky Goods Retailing 8 Deal Tracker 9 Outlook 10 Executive Summary • The NSW retail market comprises approximately 6.8 million sq m of retail space across 497 centres. The Sydney metropolitan area accommodates 64% of the state’s retail space with the remaining 36% located within regional NSW. • Growth in retail spending in NSW for the 12 months to May 2007 was 4.78%, up from 2.88% the previous year. Whilst this represents a strong increase on the previous years growth, it continues to lag the Australian total 5-year average of 5.93%. • Despite sluggish growth in the state economy and in retail spending, the NSW retail sector managed a healthy total return of 17.27% for the year to March 2007 (PCA/IPD), supported by low vacancy rates underpinning steady rental growth, a pick up in retail spending and yield compression on the back of strong investor demand across all retail asset classes. • Rental growth was experienced across all retail asset classes in the 12 months to July 2007. Sub-regional centres experienced the strongest growth with net rents increasing 4.2%. Bulky goods centres faired the worst with rents increasing just 1.8% over the period. Incentive levels remained tight across all retail asset classes. • A total of 302,000 sq m of new retail space is due to enter the market in 2007, before surging in 2008 when a further 593,000 sq m is due for completion. -

Tuggerah Estuary Management Study
Management Status 2.2.7 Sewerage Management The reticulated sewerage system of Wyong Shire is generally confined to the urban areas, with septic systems being used in the rural areas. The reticulated system has built-in failure points where sewage can overflow in case of pump failure, or similar problems. Generally, the overflow points will be adjacent to stormwater systems or a waterway. Given that sewage is high in nutrients and turbid, it can have a significant impact on downstream environments. Septic systems, if well contained and frequently serviced, do not necessarily increase sediment and nutrient loads. However, poorly maintained systems can overflow or fracture, leaching nutrients and sediment into surface and groundwater flows. The reticulated system overflows relatively infrequently. However, it should be remembered that the reticulated system is composed of both a domestic sewerage line and trade waste line. Both lines have an overflow capacity, which allows discharge into the stormwater system. A significant overflow to Tumbi Creek occurred in May 2003, which saw 72,000L of effluent discharged following a combined pump/power failure at a pumping station (WSC, 2003a). Although unintentional and quickly rectified, this kind of discharge can have significant nutrient impacts on downstream environments. Four non-significant sewage overflows occurred in the Wyong system during 2001/02. Two were due to blockages of mains and two due to power failure at pump stations (WSC, 2002). The overflow points are sometimes located adjacent to sensitive environmental areas. For example, the overflow at Fishburn Drain can discharge sewage and trade waste to the Porters Creek wetland. -
