MEDIUM and HIGH DENSITY HOUSING SET TO DESTROY PITTWATER
SYDNEY’S NORTHERN BEACHES LOCAL HOUSING STRATEGY – 2021
State Government with forced Council Amalgamations resulted in the loss of Pittwater Council and the formation of Northern Beaches Council who many in the community are now describing as the Old Warringah Council ON STEROIDS ! ! !
A new version of the discredited Mona Vale Place Plan is to be foisted on Pittwater. Mayor Michael Regan now wants this 'FAST TRACKED'. Planning Minister Rob Stokes wants medium density across the board.
Mayor Michael Regan will sacrifice our villages to high-rise.
Either way we lose!

Proposed catchment areas for medium to high density of the Northern Beaches Housing Strategy for Pittwater have areas of 1 and 1.5km radius.
Areas of 1km radius around Pittwater Villages, shown in the image below the result is most of the area around the villages and Pittwater is captured for the medium to high density in the circles.
However the Council Plan also provides an extension to this to allow for a 1.5Km hub to allow flexibility in determining the boundary of the 1Km hub!! Applying the 1.5km radius captures virtually all of Pittwater for medium to high intensity development.
It is important for all residents to know what’s now being proposed for Pittwater by Northern Beaches Council. Concerns are that traffic is now gridlocked, any more development is just impossible. Many residents learned from going to the B Line Rally's in Village Park that it was always a Trojan horse. Interesting Pittwater place is mentioned, what do they want to do with it, the discussion was that budget housing is planned for the Darley street area and no garaging ....thus the need for the B line bus ....remember Joe Hockey said, poor people don’t drive! No garaging means more profit for the property developers and more cars parked on our streets, just like the Collaroy disaster.
Objections can be emailed to Northern Beaches Council [email protected]
