Brookvale Vision and Structure Plan

At its meeting on 8 August 2017,Council endorsed the Draft Brookvale Structure Plan for public exhibition.

The public exhibition will be for 6 weeks and will include a number of drop-in sessions for the community and stakeholders to discuss details of the Draft Plan with Council officers. There will also be opportunities for individual meetings with key stakeholders.

Council is working on preparation of the exhibition material and a further update will be posted when final dates have been determined.

The Brookvale Structure Plan preparation has been progressing in accordance with the project program, however the structure plan will not be exhibited for public comment this year, as was previously anticipated.

The consultants for the project, Hames Sharley, are also working on the Hospital Precinct Structure Plan at Frenchs Forest, and the exhibition of this plan will take precedence.

The consultants have continued to refine the Brookvale Structure Plan document, however with the Christmas holiday period approaching, it is now likely that a report on the Brookvale Structure Plan will be presented to Council early next year with an exhibition to follow.

Council’s consultants, Hames Sharley, have been busy analysing the comments received from Stage 2 engagement with business representatives and key stakeholders.

Hames Sharley will use the comments to feed into the development of the Draft Brookvale Structure Plan. We anticipate the draft plan will be on exhibition for public comment by the end of 2016.

The project has now moved into Stage 2 engagement which is specifically targeting the business community in Brookvale.

Throughout March, we are holding targeted workshops and meetings with key stakeholders and business interests to specifically identify their needs and aspirations as businesses in Brookvale.

There will be further opportunities for community input during Stage 3 which will involve exhibition of the draft Structure Plan, anticipated for mid 2016.

Thank you to all who provided feedback as part of Stage 1 engagement late last year.

An overwhelming number of people attended the information stall at Brookie show. More than 50 people attended the community drop-in sessions and more than 70 comments were received via our interactive map, emails and letters.

All comments received have been forwarded to our consultants to assist them in the preparation of the Structure Plan.
