Work on the People’s Junction to continue in 2013
Last year was a busy year for the People’s Junction project which began with the project team exploring different ideas and concepts for the future of Spit Junction.
Safety of awnings over public lands
Council has written a submission to the State Government about the safety of awnings over public lands.
Planning proposals
We’re currently working on three planning proposals. These are planning documents which explain how Council is proposing to amend its Local Environmental Plan. Once they are completed they are submitted to the NSW Department of Planning and Infrastructure for approval to proceed and place on public exhibition.
Council Submission on A New Planning System for NSW – Green Paper
The NSW Government is reviewing the State’s planning system. The Review began late last year and a Green Paper was prepared seeking feedback and comment from the public. A submission has been prepared on behalf of Mosman addressing a number of issues of particular relevance to this community.
You said it and now the project team has responded
Following a month of extensive community consultation a a report on the outcomes is now available.
Call to action…last chance to input to development of draft plan
The project team has worked all year to refine and draft a Masterplan for Spit Junction.
Market Fever
The ‘Planners in Pink’ from the project team last Saturday spoke to over 50 people at the Mosman Markets. The planners were impressed at the level of interest shown by passers-by and community members who made the effort to come down to the Peoples Junction stall to speak to them about the Masterplan and Civic Centre site concept plans.

A thriving High Street at Spit Junction
High streets are characterised by significant diversity and complexity, in terms of scale, geography, function and form. No two high streets are the same. As a result, the way in which they are affected by and respond to change is diverse and varied.
