“Govt’s green light for Sandon Point

Stockland’s $22 million residential subdivision at Sandon Point has been approved by the State Government, paving the way for more than 180 houses and 80 apartments to be constructed on the controversial site.
The NSW Department of Planning’s deputy director-general Richard Pearson will today officially announce the approval of the 181-lot residential subdivision and one super-lot where up to 80 units could be constructed.
Planning documents indicate that the approval was granted by former planning minister Kristina Keneally on November 29 – only two days after new legislation was passed to rezone 20.5ha of the site for residential development.
Four days later, Ms Keneally became the state’s first female premier after Nathan Rees was rolled in a leadership challenge.
The Mercury revealed last week that the Sandon Point site had been quietly rezoned under the State Environmental Planning Policy (Major Development) Amendment (Sandon Point) 2009. The legislation overrides council planning controls and other State Government planning policies.”
