Folder State Significant Precinct (SSP) Declarations and Study Requirements by REDWatch, last updated: May 19, 2018 11:26 AM
On 18 May 2017 Waterloo Estate, including the private land within the Consolidated Estate boundary, and the Metro Station above ground now called Waterloo Metro Quarter were declared as two State Significant Precincts (SSPs). While the SSP requirements for each site have a lot of overlap there are some differences which we have highlighted in our comparison. Here is information about the SSP Declarations and the Study requirements. Please note however that the Study requirements are what NSW Planning and Environment require as a basis for setting new planning controls. The studies as undertaken by consultants cover these requirements in a different way. There are also other studies being undertaken which are not required for planning controls but which deal with more "people" rather than SSP requirements.
Folder Joint "Master Plan" studies and consultants by REDWatch, last updated: May 19, 2018 11:22 AM
On 29 May 2017 Land and Housing Corporation (LAHC) issued details on the way in which Urban Growth and LAHC consultants will undertake the studies required by the the Department of Planning. Waterloo Estate, including private land within the Consolidated Estate boundary, and the Metro Station above ground now called Waterloo Metro Quarter were declared as two State Significant Precincts (SSPs). The Study requirements in the SSPs are what NSW Planning and Environment require as a basis for setting new planning controls. Given the substantial overlap in the SSP requirements for both sites the studies are being done together and divided up among consultants. They will be tailored to a specific SSP site when placed on formal public exhibition. The consultant's studies cover the SSP requirements in a different way to the studies listed in the SSP. In everyday dealing during the master plan it will be these consultant studies which we are calling the "Master Plan" studies. There are also other studies being undertaken which are not required for planning controls but which deal with more "people" rather than SSP requirements and these are also included in this section.

Mirvac originally split its proposal for the Locomotive Workshop into two but the Department of Planning has placed both the Mirvac DAs on exhibition together.

The issues related to the movable heritage collection and how the development deals with the heritage fabric of the buildings goes across both DAs.

News Item Human Services in Redfern and Waterloo: A potted history listing of plans, interventions, activities, consultations and reports by REDWatch, last updated: Jan 16, 2018 10:03 PM
This listing is prepared to provide an overview of key announcements and activities relating to Human Services in Redfern and Waterloo. It is not exhaustive and generally reflects what was known publically. Most projects were announced and not evaluated or ceased for one reason or another. Future Human Services planning should be aware of the earlier work in the area and learn as much as possible from it. Here we have not tried to draw out those lessons just construct an overview of what has gone before. Where reports or further information is available we have provided links or indicated that reports or resources are available.
