PROTECTING PITTWATER
- Where To From Here?
The forced amalgamation of Pittwater
Council was just the beginning of massive changes proposed for our area.
We’ve already seen plans for 3,400 new homes at Ingleside, a new height
limit of six-storeys for the redevelopment of Mona Vale (currently on
hold) and trees cut down in Mona Vale Park for a B-Line bus stop.
However, there’s so much more that we don’t know about:
- What impact will the new government planning body -
the Greater Sydney Commission – have on Pittwater?
- How will development approvals be carried out?
- Are our Crown Lands, tree canopies and open spaces
safe?
- How can we recover our local Pittwater Council?
- What is the best way forward to protect this special
place for future generations?
These are some of the questions we
urgently need answered.
All residents will have the opportunity to join in the discussion and a
number of other community representatives have been invited to speak.
