Freshwater Village Town Centre
Consideration of future development outcomes - land comprising Council's Oliver Street car park
Council has been asked by private landowners in the Freshwater Village Town Centre to consider the possibility of obtaining vehicular access over Council's Oliver Street car park to the rear of the properties on the northern side of Lawrence Street. To enable such an outcome, the new Warringah 'Standard Instrument' Local Environmental Plan would need to be amended. Council is seeking your views. More on the proposal and complete the online questionnaire.
IMPORTANT SEPP NOTICE: State Environmental Planning Policy 2008, made under the provisions of the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act 1979 was amended to exclude Warringah from its application. More on SEPP Notice.
