The TSC ‘Final Options Paper‘, nominating 60 sites to be proposed for development or further development, was on the agenda of the December ’24 Tweed Shire Council Public Meeting.
The ‘Final Options’ presented by Council staff had combined several previously separately identified sites, clouding clear identification of environmental and other site constraints of these sites.
Concerns raised regarded flooding, lack of infrastructure and, most important for our organisation, environmental loss which may be the result of these development sites chosen, notably in the rural areas and greenfield areas of the Tweed.
The Councillors, by unanimous decision, have instructed Council staff to provide a report which is to include an analysis of environmental loss (and flood and lack of infrastructure issues) on all of the original 83 options.
