While we all appreciate the need for housing, The Hills does not have the infrastructure to support the additional 21,000 apartments proposed by the Minns Labor government.
This is a 400% increase on the original 5,600 dwellings planned for this area between Kellyville and Bella Vista Metro Stations. With no land set aside for schools, or playing fields, it is clear this Government has no concept of what a functioning community needs.
The increase in traffic congestion along Old Windsor Road, which thousands of residents already suffer each day, will be intolerable. I am shocked that this plan was even created, let alone proposed by this Government.
I would strongly encourage anyone who is opposed to Labor’s proposed gross over-development of the Kellyville area to make your concerns known by make a submission at www.planningportal.nsw.gov.au/draftplans/exhibition/kellyville-and-bella-vista-state-led-rezoning-proposal
NSW passes embedded Network Laws
I am proud to advise that after raising the matter of Embedded Network Energy Providers in the media, and subsequently chairing the Law & Safety Committee about this matter, new Legislation was passed by Parliament on 24 June 2024 ending the reign of financial terror placed on NSW residents by price gouging electricity providers. I am very proud that this very first piece of Legislation regarding embedded networks has come to fruition, and I anticipate that it may be replicated by other states across Australia.
Labor Dismantles Service NSW The NSW
Labor Government has lost control of the Budget and now they’re slashing Service NSW – cutting more than 200 frontline staff. This means cuts to frontline workers who help make your life easier. Whether it be renewing your driver’s licence or getting a copy of your birth certificate Service NSW has made life easier for everyone.
Chris Minns’ promises to union bosses have cost the NSW Budget more than $9 billion, with more to come, and now they are slashing more than $100 million from services that support NSW residents at critical times. These cuts will decimate Service NSW, cripple essential services, and leave our communities vulnerable in times of crisis.
