Leo Drive Losses Wildlife

The Leo Drive subdivision has commenced with clearing of the site well under way.   'The Greens' Clr Amanda Findley believes that this action should be a catalyst to spark community discussion on how we the community view growth for the area.

" Focusing on Ulladulla through the development control plan review is great but we also need to look at the bigger picture for our area."

'The Federal government is insisting on 1.3% annual growth, giving us the much talked about 36 million people. The knock on effect of that is Councils are left with planning for growth. Or as it is NSW having the will of the State Government put upon us." Amanda said

There is much to talk about locally.
Do we want to see valuable farmland lost to housing.
Is urban sprawl acceptable.
Can we retain character and have medium density housing.

Clr Findley wants the community to have a conversation about how we see ourselves in the future and is calling for all interested residents to meet in Narrawallee this Thursday at 10am at the unnamed street half way along Leo Drive on the western side.

"I think it will be constructive for people to witness first hand what is happening on site and then have a discussion about the future and how we can plan for sustainable growth and think about housing expectations." A report on these discussion will be forwarded to the Times for further comment.

ACTION: 10am Meeting Thursday 18 March 2010
