Make a submission to the NSW planning review
Oct 27th, 2011 by webmaster
The intended outcome of the NSW planning review, which is now in progress, is that local councils will have uniform guidelines in place for the majority of applications before them for approval. One aspect that would be beneficial to radio amateurs is to have in place a regulation permitting the erection of towers and structures without having to submit development applications.
The WIA has suggested that this is an opportunity for NSW amateurs to have input to the review and hopefully achieve an outcome of an easy approval for their tower requirements. The more submissions the review receives recommending this the more likely the desired outcome would be achieved.
The IARS committee recommends all NSW amateurs make individual submissions to the planning review. This is fairly easy to do, for example, it can be done by email.
Submissions to the review close on Friday 4 November.
For more information, including guidance for making a submission, see the WIA news release.
