Copyright © 2025, Arkansas Democrat-Gazette, Inc. This document may not be reprinted without the express written permission of Arkansas Democrat-Gazette, Inc. The Weekly SOURCE is published by DCM Media Following public consultation with Sydney’s north-west, the New South Wales Government has scaled down its proposal for the Bella Vista and Kellyville Transport Oriented Development (TOD) precincts, but some concerns still remain.   The Bella Vista and Kellyville Precincts already have capacity for 22,576 dwellings and the originally exhibited plans identified a further 20,700 additional homes beyond this. In the finalised plans, this has been reduced to an additional 4,600 homes.  Mayor of The Hills Shire, Dr Michelle Byrne, has warned that despite the positive changes made, the State Government’s updated proposal was half-baked, did nothing to address longstanding infrastructure concerns and that the exhibition period should be re-opened so residents could have their say.  “While I’m glad the New South Wales Government’s absurd original proposal has been scaled down, we need to know why all housing growth on the Blacktown side has disappeared and the additional growth has actually doubled on the Hills side,” Mayor Byrne said.  “Instead of having an additional 18,200 homes on the Blacktown side as originally exhibited, Blacktown will now have no new homes while the Hills has an additional 4,600 on our side, in addition to the 18,600 homes we already have capacity for.  “This is a fundamentally different proposal in terms of the yield and built form outcomes on several key sites. Residents, businesses and Council should be afforded the opportunity to have their say.  “If Council or a developer submitted plans this light on detail, the NSW Government wouldn’t even let us put it on exhibition. Meanwhile the government is completely reshaping the face of The Hills Shire with the stroke of a pen.”   Mayor Byrne said that this is a major uplift and will require a significant investment from the State Government in infrastructure like local roads, schools, parks, playing fields and community facilities.  “The Government keeps talking about the $520 million they have to spend across eight TOD precincts, but still have released no plans on how they will use it.  “These will still be city-shaping precincts yet there’s no funding for new schools, no funding for new playing fields, no funding for new community floor space and no flood study to back up how these buildings can actually be constructed.”  Mayor Byrne said that despite repeated requests for a meeting with Minister for Planning and Public Spaces, Paul Scully, the rezoning announcements were made without any discussion between the government and Council.  “It’s disappointing that the Minister has steamrolled Council with this announcement. There are a lot of issues with this half-baked proposal that need to be addressed and now these rezonings will be made without us having a chance to voice our concerns,” Mayor Byrne said.  “The first we heard of this announcement was when we read it in the papers this morning, before the Department had even finalised and released the extremely scant details which were published on their website this afternoon.  “The Hills Shire already has the most overcrowded schools in New South Wales and the government’s only commitment as part of this process is to undertake further investigations to increase school capacity.  “This simply isn’t good enough and they need to act fast before quality of life for Hills residents is significantly eroded.”  Disaster recovery support is now available to flood impacted communities in Bourke, Brewarrina and Walgett in northern New South Wales....

364 by 2041 - reflected ownership arrangements involving community title schemes “Resolving some of these factors could lead to more apartment buildings and improved amenity for residents,” it said “Not all precincts with uplifted planning controls will be delivered immediately and the government’s new housing reforms are intended to increase housing supply not only over the period of the National Housing Accord but also over the medium- to long-term.” The exhibition of plans for Kellyville and Bella Vista along with five other “accelerated precincts” under the TOD program and the Planning Department will respond to feedback Plans for the eighth accelerated precinct, Bays West, have been delayed until next year while the government awaits a review into whether the Glebe Island industrial ports should be relocated to make way for high-density housing at The Bays Federal Labor minister Michelle Rowland has asked for suburbs in her electorate to be excluded from the state government\\u2019s plan for more housing near transport hubs Rowland\\u2019s concerns relate to plans to rezone areas of Glenwood and Stanhope Gardens as part of the NSW government\\u2019s signature Transport-Oriented Development Program road and transport infrastructure \\u201Cneed to be remedied before further density is considered for these suburbs\\u201D She also said her petition to \\u201Cstop high-rises in Stanhope Gardens and Glenwood\\u201D had amassed more than 1000 signatures It would increase Glenwood\\u2019s capacity from 1872 to 12,603 dwellings She warned rapid growth in Sydney\\u2019s north-west had already left key arterial and feeder roads at capacity \\u201CThe streets around Glenwood and the entry and egress for the suburb mean that residents are wedged in traffic jams even as they leave their own driveways,\\u201D she wrote in her submission \\u201CMass transit options are also at capacity with locals complaining that parking and bus services around the precinct\\u2019s metro stations are struggling to properly service residents.\\u201D the necessary infrastructure does not yet exist in Glenwood and Stanhope Gardens to support the scale of the accelerated rezoning that is proposed\\u201D Asked about Rowland\\u2019s position at a budget estimates hearing on Friday Scully rejected assertions by opposition planning spokesman Scott Farlow that Rowland was a \\u201CNIMBY\\u201D and instead branded the Liberals the \\u201Canti-housing party\\u201D for trying to disallow the entire Transport-Oriented Development Program in the parliament \\u201CYour housing target is zero,\\u201D Scully said Premier Chris Minns and Deputy Premier Prue Car to relay the community\\u2019s concerns about the plans Minns \\u201Chas made it clear that our community must stop taking all the growth\\u201D \\u201Cthen the projected yield within this part of the precinct should not be transferred onto land east of Old Windsor Road\\u201D \\u201CResolving some of these factors could lead to more apartment buildings and improved amenity for residents,\\u201D it said \\u201CNot all precincts with uplifted planning controls will be delivered immediately and the government\\u2019s new housing reforms are intended to increase housing supply not only over the period of the National Housing Accord but also over the medium- to long-term.\\u201D along with five other \\u201Caccelerated precincts\\u201D under the TOD program have been delayed until next year while the government to make way for high-density housing at The Bays This website is using a security service to protect itself from online attacks The action you just performed triggered the security solution There are several actions that could trigger this block including submitting a certain word or phrase You can email the site owner to let them know you were blocked Please include what you were doing when this page came up and the Cloudflare Ray ID found at the bottom of this page BELLA VISTA — Efforts to expand biking infrastructure and culture in Northwest Arkansas are getting a lift OZ Trails plans for the first chairlift-served downhill mountain bike park in the region to be located at the junction of Bella Vista and Bentonville along U.S Thomas Saccente covers Bentonville and Benton County news for the Northwest Arkansas Democrat-Gazette He has spent most of his life in Arkansas and started his professional journalism career in Fort Smith in 2015 He began working for the Democrat-Gazette in 2019 covering the River Valley before moving to Northwest Arkansas in 2024 CIA Bella Vista’s Miles Sadler orchestrates the offense during practice, leading the charge for the No. 6-ranked team in the nation.

BELLA VISTA -- The city is evaluating a road issue on Oldham Drive The New South Wales Government has unveiled the first three rezoning proposals for Transport Oriented Development (TOD) Accelerated Precincts as part of its efforts to create more well-located homes Set to deliver up to 30,000 new homes supported by almost 80,000 jobs and Macquarie Park rezoning proposals will deliver homes close to jobs and transport This is part of the New South Wales Government’s commitment to rebalance housing growth around transport infrastructure where there is existing infrastructure as part of its plans to confront the housing crisis and provide a future for the next generation of people in Sydney According to a report by the New South Wales Productivity and Equality Commissioner between 2016 and 2021 Sydney lost twice as many people aged 30 to 40 as it gained with a net loss of 35,000 young people from the city To encourage vibrant communities in the TOD Accelerated Precincts Special Entertainment Precincts (SEP) will be enabled to support live entertainment through extended trading hours for live music venues and favourable noise controls that provide operational certainty for venues The TOD Accelerated Precincts will also share in $520 million which has been reserved for investment in community infrastructure such as critical road upgrades The proposals for these first three TODs are:  Kellyville and Bella Vista – 20,700 new homes (between 620-1,650 affordable homes) and 10,000 jobs  The Kellyville and Bella Vista proposal is designed create a new community around two of the newest Metro stations in Sydney With the new Metro line extension to Waterloo slated to open on 4 August people who move into this area would have a direct train link to the Chatswood The new master planned area would include apartment buildings with direct access to a wide range of retail and commercial offerings expansive open space areas and new active transport links with walking and cycling connections to the Metro stations A three to eight per cent affordable housing target has been set with the homes to be affordable in perpetuity to encourage a diverse community the master planning and draft rezoning for Kellyville and Bella Vista was combined shared infrastructure can be identified to support new homes in these precincts Hornsby – 5,000 new homes (between 250-500 affordable homes) and 3,450 jobs  Hornsby CBD is set for a modern makeover with up to 5,000 new homes planned to be added over the next 20 years to a new 38.9ha precinct spanning both sides of the train line built upon Hornsby Shire Council’s Hornsby Town Centre Masterplan which has already had extensive previous community engagement would create 3,450 jobs underpinned by more diversified housing with an affordable housing target between five to ten per cent in perpetuity meaning 250-500 homes set aside as affordable housing just minutes from the Hornsby train station and close to excellent schools come with all the advantages of living close to retail Macquarie Park Stage Two – 4,600 new homes (460-690 affordable homes) and 66,000 jobs  The Macquarie Park rezoning proposal will provide a mix of homes open space and commercial premises to transform the innovation and living hub for the 21st century The Macquarie Park TOD would bring the area to life with more apartments and street level vibrancy leading to an 18-hour economy Essential workers are catered for with ten to 15 per cent affordable housing in perpetuity The New South Wales Government is also exhibiting an Explanation of Intended Effect (EIE) which will include speeding up development assessments with changes to the State Significant Development threshold in the Precincts exemptions from certain concurrence and referral requirements This is in addition to consents in the TOD Accelerated Precincts being time-limited requiring proponents to begin works within two years A public exhibition on the state-led rezonings proposals for these three TOD Precincts will occur from 9 July to 9 August 2024 allowing communities to have their say on Kellyville Bella Vista New South Wales Minister for Planning and Public Spaces said that the remaining TOD Accelerated Precinct rezoning proposals are set to go on public exhibition soon “The New South Wales Government’s planning reforms are focused on building better homes and better communities These first three rezonings allow for up to 30,000 more homes supported by almost 80,000 jobs,” Minister Scully said but the housing crisis across New South Wales well-built home that suits all stages of their lives “I encourage everyone to take a look at the proposals and provide their comments.”  said that the funding of major infrastructure remained a sticking point and that residents only have until 9 August to share their views with the New South Wales Government by making a submission “The proposal would see close to 100,000 people living in the Kellyville and Bella Vista Precincts Residents need to have their say on whether this is the type of future they want for our Shire,” Mayor Gangemi said “Both Windsor Road and Old Windsor Roads are already a car park during the morning and afternoon peak even without the additional growth being proposed “Intersections along Norwest Boulevard and Showground Road need urgent upgrades to improve traffic flow “The Hills is home to the most overcrowded schools in the state and without a significant investment in new educational facilities demountables will cover sporting fields at local primary and high schools.”   The Hills Shire said that more than 40 per cent of Hills schools had exceeded their enrolment cap by more than 100 students Council called on the State Government to deliver the following infrastructure saying that it would be required to support the proposed growth:   “The infrastructure needed for our precincts will cost a lot more than the $520 million set aside for all TOD precincts let alone the two in our Shire,” Mayor Gangemi said “We look forward to working with government to ensure that they commit to funding this vital state infrastructure should their proposal remain in this form.”  Disaster recovery support is now available to flood impacted communities in Bourke Brewarrina and Walgett in northern New South Wales...
