the special characteristics which contribute to local identity
shared community values to be maintained and enhanced
how growth and change will be managed into the future
Once the LSPS is in place, it will shape future reviews of the Wollongong Local Environmental Plan 2009, Wollongong Development Control Plan 2009 and inform an ongoing program of land use planning projects and works. It will also be used to test the strategic merit of Planning Proposal requests.
The LSPS draws on existing strategic priorities and programs to provide a single source document that sets out our approach to land use planning over the next 20 years, including the actions and outcomes we commit to. The Statement does not set any new strategic priorities for Council.
The draft LSPS also includes a chapter describing the key attributes of each Ward and key centres within the Wards. All suburbs within the Wollongong LGA are different and have their own environmental setting, history, character, constraints and opportunities. A one-size-fits-all approach is not appropriate. Many places have their own vision statement, strategies and action plans, prepared through the Town and Village program. The LSPS draws this information together.
