COUNCIL TO HOLD MEETINGS IN ULLADULLA
Shoalhaven Council will hold the next Development Committee Meeting and General Meeting at the Ulladulla Civic Centre. The focus will be on DCP56 amendment 5, a plan designed to guide development in the Ulladulla CBD. A Joint Submission has been lodged by the Business Chamber and The Ulladulla & District Community Forum raising concerns about some aspects of the document, especially proposed height limits near the harbour. It will be made clear at these meetings as to whether Councillors have taken on board this Submission. The Forum urges those interested in the future of our town to attend these meetings and hear what our elected Council plans for our Town.

Development Committee Meeting will be held on Tuesday 10th August commencing 4pm, The General Meeting on Tuesday 24^th August commencing 4pm

COMMUNITY CHANGES PROFILE OF NEW WOOLWORTHS DEVELOPMENT

Woolworths have been given the go ahead on their proposed development after changes made by Woolworths in consultation with the Community. The original design did not meet the Development Control Plan for Ulladulla DCP56. This Control Plan requires active shop-fronts on any development facing the Princes Highway. A modified plan by Woolworths, while aesthetically more pleasing still did not meet the DCP requirements. An alternative design by local architect Belinda Scott was submitted to Woolworths for consideration and was accepted by Woolworths and Council as an appropriate design for this development.

Civic Centre Upgrade

The $5.5m allocated to the upgrading of the Civic Centre was the focus of the U&DCF July meeting. Feed back from the community by way of a questionnaire has provided a valuable insight into the community expectation for this upgrade. A "Strategy Group" with representatives from the Business Community, the Forum and various other groups has been established to further determine what should be done with the money allocated for this project.

Community Housing

The State Government has bypassed community consultation and has pushed ahead with plans for community housing in Ulladulla. The community has responded with numerous letter and petitions. The main cause of concern is the lack of community consultation. David Borger State Minister for Housing says he is not interested in listening to community concerns.

Harbour Triangle Development

Wason St

A two storey development consisting of retail and commercial premises has replaced the previous proposal which would have seen a five storey residential, commercial and retail development on this pristine site. This new development application meets with the proposed height limits in the new DCP56

Shoalhaven Local Environment Plan
The 2009 draft SLEP is a legally binding document formulated by Council and the NSW Department of Planning. This document will guide the future development in the Shoalhaven and will override Development Control Plans (DCP) and State Environmental Planning Policies (SEPP). Draft Amendments to the SLEP have been made but Council have blocked community access to these amendments. It will be important that the community look closely at the detail of the SLEP when made available. It might be that land was safe from development under the old SLEP has been re-zoned or can be re-zoned under the new LEP.
It's possible Eleven (11) metre (3-4 Storey) height limits for residential and water front sites will replace the existing two (2) storey limit. The Nowra, Huskisson and Ulladulla town centres will have even greater heights permitted.
