Folder RWA & SMDA Plans by REDWatch, last updated: Sep 06, 2011 02:10 PM
One of the last major acts of the Redfern Waterloo Authority (RWA) in 2011 was to exhibit the Draft Built Environment Plan Phase 2 for the redevelopment of the public housing estates in Redfern and Waterloo. The draft included a mixture of government policy about the redevelopment and draft planning controls. The HNSW Preliminary Master Plan is a continuation of this process. Meanwhile the Sydney Metropolitan Development Authority which subsumed the RWA is to undertake a wider study across the Redfern Waterloo area and as part of this it is to finalise the BEP2 controls and put them on public exhibition. Here you will find links to the RWA and SMDA plans.
Folder Local Research by REDWatch, last updated: Sep 06, 2011 01:52 PM
Research is best done in a transparent manner recognising the vantage point from which it is being undertaken and the purposes for which it is intended or likely to be used. There has been tension for some time between local residents, organisations and government over research issues resulting from government failure to release earlier studies and a lack of belief in HNSW assurances that it will be different in this project. For the Redfern Waterloo Redevelopment HNSW set up a "Waterloo Community Learning & Research Project" which is independently chaired by Dr Judith Stubbs. Time will tell how this unfolds but initially HNSW undertook a baseline study without reference to the community and a University of Western Sydney Residents’ Voices project has been initiated independently of HNSW. Here we have gathered some of the information about research in Redfern Waterloo - see also section in Redevelopment on Social Mix.
Link City of Sydney Council Submission on Draft BEP2 by REDWatch, last updated: Sep 06, 2011 12:54 PM
The City of Sydney Submission tested various aspects of the Draft BEP2 and made a number of recommendations for changes to the plan. The council also proposed lower densities for the Redfern public housing estate and increased density in Waterloo arround a proposed new railway station.
Folder City of Sydney and Public Housing by REDWatch, last updated: Sep 06, 2011 12:50 PM
During 2006 the City of Sydney undertook an Urban Design Study of Redfern Waterloo. This study included land owned by the then NSW Department of Housing. The study found that some areas of Public Housing were of quite low density and that there were opportunities to increase density on Housing New South Wales (HNSW) lands and decrease heights. Here we have bought together the key aspects of this study as it relates to public housing. We have also some maps from the CoS Draft LEP in September 2010 which show what CoS proposed as their controls for the HNSW area prior to RWA BEP2 and HNSW's Preliminary Master Plan. While the Draft BEP2 proposed an increase of 35% in density over the Council study, the Council submission on BEP2 actually proposed increased density in Waterloo if a new railway station on the Airport line could be constructed.

Folder HNSW Preliminary Master Plan by REDWatch, last updated: Sep 06, 2011 10:38 AM
The Preliminary Master Plan is funded by a 2009 Federal Government Affordable Housing Fund Grant and is to be completed by June 2012. While it falls within the Draft BEP2 framework it is not the comprehensive Master Plan referred to within the BEP2. More work will need to be funded to both take the Preliminary Master Plan to a full Master Plan for the area covered in the project and to cover off all the areas in BEP2. REDWatch is posting these documents so they are publicly available electronically in the absence of Housing NSW being able to post them on their own website.
