PETITION 
 View our powerful petition at change.org : 

click here to view --> Ban new development in Sydney's Wildlife Corridors

THIS DA WAS REFUSED BY COUNCIL 
​REFUSED BY THE PLANNING PANEL
REFUSED BY THE LEC

but the developer has decided to try again -
despite overwhelming community objections
despite a resounding council rejection ,
despite so many refusal reasons by the Planning Panel ,
​despite the Commissioner of the LEC refusal


Thank you for the enormous community support

Replacing a wildlife corridor, with 5 acres of 7 buildings, 3 storey apartments, with all associated noise, bright lights and traffic IS NOT in the public interest
  3 storey apartments are entirely inappropriate to the character of Bayview

Saving Wildlife Corridors & Vulnerable Species IS in the public interest
This Development  proposal is in the wrong place

Together with our local petition letter we have already received -
over 78,000 signatures 
of support for this petition

( note:  we now have over 78,000 signatures asking this type of development to be stopped !!  )

​Determination of the 2nd SCC Application was made by the NSW Planning & Environment
on 27th March 2017.   Unbelievably that SCC was Approved to proceed to a DA even though
there were clear legal, scale and environmental issues with this proposal. 
The DA was refused , by Council, the Planning Panel and the LEC.
​That 2nd SCC expired in March 2019

​However - the developer has decided to try again and re-submitted a new SCC application, with a very similar proposal as that which was reject by the LEC, to the Department of Planning Industry and Environment (DPIE).


Wildlife Corridors were created to allow Fauna to move freely between Habitats.

 Any proposed residential  development of Units on Bayview Golf course would prevent wildlife from moving between the coast at Winnererremy Bay Mona Vale and major habitat areas around Katandra Bushland Sanctuary and Nangana Road Bayview.

​ This Third  new SCC application should be rejected by the Department of Planning.
​There are many reasons why this application should be refused


 This 3rd attempt  for approval for a major  building  development was made in September 2019 on this very important Wildlife & Coastal corridor  by  using an SCC to try to REZONE OPEN SPACE land, that  would completely cut this High Priority Wildlife Corridor (Map 9 Pittwater Council website) , isolating fauna from their feeding area in the remnant trees.

Over 100 old remnant trees would be removed plus other trees totalling  252 to be removed for this proposal. 

Many Threatened and Endangered Native species owe their survival
to these Wildlife Corridors and they need the habitat for feeding and protection .
We don't need High Rise apartments on OPEN SPACE. 

 Any further  development in these Wildlife Corridors should be stopped  -
​Any further development in High Risk Bush Fire Prone areas should be stopped -
particularly  such over-developments like the ones in Bayview &  others across Sydney.
​The release in Ingleside precinct was cancelled due to severe bush fire risks.
​
​Fire evacuation risks for  existing residents increase dramatically with such additional Seniors Housing villages

Is this what Bayview will have to look forward to? Seniors Housing Villages and apartments should not be built in High Risk Bush Fire Areas such as Bayview, Terrey Hills and Ingleside

The ANZAC retirement village at Collaroy Plateau was evacuated recently due to the severe bush fire risk.
