Welcome to the Kirrawee Brick Pit campaign website

Introduction

A new Development Application has been lodged with N.S.W. Department of Planning under Section – Part 3A of the Environmental Planning & Assessment Act 1979.

The new application is almost twice the size of the original proposal that was rejected by the Sutherland Shire Council. The Council defended their decision in the Land and Environment Court at a cost of approximately $500,000. The defence represented the existing Council Planning Regulations and concerns put forward by the community.

The Land and Environment Court made its decision and rejected the proposal on all points.

The Developers, Henroth Investments Pty Ltd have totally ignored the 3,500 community and business objections, The Sutherland Shire Council’s decision, and the Land and Environment Court decision.

Henroth Investments has now lodged the much larger proposal directly to the N.S.W. Government Planning Department. This Government Department can approve the application without any regard for Council Planning Regulations or community concerns.

This is a major site that is delicate to the sustainability and lifestyle of our Shire.

N.S.W. Government should reject this proposal. Approval of the development will set a precedent for all major developers to prostitute our Shire by building whatever they want without any consideration to the needs and wants of the shire and the community.

Find out all the details and assess whether you think this is the right development for the Kirrawee Brick Pit Site. Attached are links to documentation that will help you decide if this development should go ahead.
