Richmond Valley Council has already spent $944,000 in legal fees from 1999-January 2009, assuming by 2019 well in excess of $1 million dollars in ratepayer funds. The waste of our money on this unsustainable development needs to end. 2. Environmental concerns Koala - is a threatened species, who are losing natural habitat specifically in the Evans/Woodburn/Broadwater region as a result of land clearing for the highway, Iron Gates will displace and remove critical natural corridor that allows the koala & other species to migrate. The recent Bush Fires has accelerating the destruction of native habitat for the koala and other native species proceeding the tragic Rappville & Bora Ridge fires. Koala droppings were found on the perimeter of the proposed development site, a reasonable person knowing Koala’s move to find specific eucalypt trees to feed on would think they would move within the site boundary to source the specific trees they eat that are established within the proposed development site.

  • Ballina Shire Council
    MAYORAL INTRODUCTION Accommodating the needs for housing and employment growth in a manner which balances economic, social and environmental outcomes is an important challenge for local councils. The Ballina Shire Growth Management Strategy is the key strategic land use planning document by which the Council establishes how and where projected population and employment growth are to be accommodated over the next 20 years. The strategy will guide the Council in planning services and infrastructure as well as setting the foundation for more detailed planning investigations to be undertaken at the local level. It is also hoped that the strategy will assist residents, community organisations, businesses and other government and non-government agencies in their own planning. David Wright Mayor, Ballina Shire Council EXECUTIVE SUMMARY CONTENTS The purpose of the Ballina Shire Growth 1 INTRODUCTION __________________ 1 Management Strategy is to provide the framework for managing population and employment growth in Ballina Shire, with 2 GUIDING PRINCIPLES FOR SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT _____ 6 respect to residential, commercial and industrial development opportunities, over the planning period of 2012-2031. 3 FOUNDATIONS FOR GROWTH ______ 8 The strategy provides for growth by 4 LAND SUPPLY AND DEMAND _____ 15 outlining the process for Council's consideration of significant changes to 5 GROWTH MANAGEMENT Council's land use planning regime.
