Background

The Council owns land which is zoned as a neighbourhood reserve, but is not well used because it is isolated and it has poor visibility.

Council proposes to rezone the land as two industrial titles and one residential title, and to create an esplanade reserve adjacent to Jenkins Creek. This will make better use of this land, while still providing for recreation and access along Jenkins Creek.
