Lords Road Planning Proposal, 24 Nov 2018

"A new Planning Proposal has been submitted for Lords Road.
The previous proposal to rezone the land and construct 315 apartments was refused by the Central Sydney Planning Panel in September 2017.
The new proposal includes:
-rezoning from IN2 Light Industrial to R3 Medium Density Residential
-235 dwellings
-Additional permitted uses including 3,000sqm community, creative and employment uses
-A proposed FSR change from 1:1 to 2.4:1
-Five buildings around the site perimeter ranging from 3-9 storeys with a proposed reduced level height limit of 35m
Council officers are assessing the proposal against relevant planning policies and State and local transport and environmental strategies and the community engagement undertaken by the Proponent;
The officer's assessment will be provided to the Inner West Local Planning Panel for advice. It is expected that the proposal will be presented to the panel late 2018/early 2019. The report and proposal will be available on the panel's website about a week before they review it and the public are permitted to attend the meeting where the matter is considered.
The advice from the panel will then be presented to Councillors. The report will be available a week before the meeting and the public may attend and speak.
Councillors will decide whether the proposal warrants being sent to the gateway process with the Department of Planning.
The Gateway process determines whether there is statutory approval for the proposal to proceed to further community consultation; and
If the Council determines not to forward the proposal to gateway, the proponent could ask the Department of Planning to review such a decision."

Save the Bower, Addison Road Community Centre, 22 Nov 2018

"Update From the Bower Friday 23rd November 2018
Although we’re still locked out and the eviction hasn’t been overturned, ARCCO will allow us to continue with our original plan to demolish the parts of The Bower as required to fulfill the Council’s compliance order! Hurrah!
Come on down to The Bower from 9am – 5pm Saturday and Sunday [24/5 November] to help us out. Many hands make light work and we’ll have people coordinating different jobs. Please bring your own protective gear: steel cap boots, dust masks etc. We’ll also gratefully accept all offers of food and refreshments to support the volunteers helping us.

Bower Eviction, 19 November 2018

The Bower is a wonderful story and I am a huge fan (photo at the annual auction Saturday before last) and from the response to the petition (8,842 have signed. Let’s get to 10,000! in 23 hours) it would seem that so are many others. If nothing else they fixed my Sony CD Walkman at a Repair Cafe! Coincidentally, I put up an amendment saying that we need to support these types of ventures in Inner West Council's waste policy on Oct 30, but it was not supported.

Amend point 6 to:
6. Develop a strategy to divert resources before they enter the waste stream by:
a) Increase recycling collection points at Council Premises to complement those provided by Businesses (eg for e-waste, styrofoam, batteries, mobile phones etc);
