At Tuesdays meeting council voted to defer consideration of two developments. The first was Item 9.1.4 structure plan and scheme amendment for Lots 348,349 & 350 Kearsley Rd. This was deferred so that the documents could be amended to reflect Councils planning policies. Item 9.1.7 Development of 68 grouped dwellings - Lot 358 Smith St. was deferred so that a site inspection and briefing can take place. The proposal for 21 park homes for permanent accommodation at Ocean Beach Caravan Park - the Council voted to defer consideration and required the proponent to provide information requested by the Department of Water and the Department of Environment and Conservation. The council did vote 11/1 to adopt the Climate Change Committees recommendations to participate in the Cities for Climate Protection program AND switch to purchasing 25% Natural Power from Synergy as the first step in the longer process of becoming carbon neutral… the Shire used about $75,000 worth of electricity last year so you can see we are big consumers… more about this later.
