Editor's Notes
- #2 Structure Focus on Dress Circle Highest quality and finest grain buildings no central lane from john st to The Esplanade – 2 links and ped movement along the Dress Circle Convenient links back to parking Crossing to foreshore - at signals and mid block refuge Better cycle links to surrounding suburb
- #3 Latest NSW Government Projections LHRS targets - 60,000 additional residents and 36,000 additional dwellings, 12,000 jobs by 2031. 93% urban by 2050 39% of people over 55 by 2031 Changing household size and composition Changing employment structure Ageing – up from 30% now. ABS Catchment (WB, Lakelands, Speers Point, Eleebana, Valentine) data – income, unemployment, vehicles LHRS and LS2030 consistent policy direction for town centres: support compact, distinct and diverse urban centres provide local employment opportunities Increase local services and facilities Support compact, walkable urban areas Increase dwellings in and around town centres Serviced by public transport
- #4 Create good places for pedestrians notice Small scale shops, interesting shop fronts Awnings, entries, display windows, Good quality façade materials and detailing places to sit, to walk, to meet
- #5 Shops on street not internalised – no shopping centre like Glendale or Charlestown. Half of people drove a car and half use active travel modes to travel to centre. Divided on need for another supermarket Make cycling and walking easier and safer Tourist accommodation Public Wifi
- #6 This is what we want Medical and health Personal services, hairdressers Accountants solicitors financial advisers Cafes and restuarants
- #7 tendency to look forward and down as we walk Human scale – 5 storeys can still see people in street and recognise faces – beyond this social connection is quickly lost
- #8 Viewing from Speers Point and from red Bluff – ensure treed ridgeline is still visible behind ne development. Enclosure – street wall compared to area of sky – determines the feeling of openess or enclosure - details in Framework
- #9 Community protective of heights close to water in core of centre, less concerned about heights away from water and south of town core. Generally regarding building heights: 16% supported heights up to eight storeys; 24% supported heights up to six storeys; 33% supported heights up to four storeys; and 27% supported heights up to two storeys
- #10 Esplanade Dress Circle Postmans lane at the rear Allows construction on narrow sites dev can happen without amalgamation Finer grain, small scale frontages around 10m Lane – also allows res at rear
- #11 Incentive to develop –owners unlikely to knock down 1 to 2 storey building and replace with 2 or 3 storey building. Building type A B C D E etc Used principles to arrive at height in storeys the building type suited to each street Provide incentive for Dress Circle dev Larger sites (orange and blue) can handle setbacks on upper levels to reduce bulk East of Charles 3 storey to transition to lower res dev
- #12 SGS shows 27000m2 total Modelling to see if we could we meet this target
- #13 possible supermarket on D3 and D8
- #14 John St Central parking – to replace existing and new parking for new commercial floor space and apartment Some commercial return Funding model not determined. Caroline to talk about how Streetscape Masterplan fits with town structre.
- #15 Façade controls in Area Plan To ensure articulation, smaller scale façade areas, public art opportunity, street level retail, bus stop. Example Knox St Double Bay
- #16 Tension between network flow on main roads and the town centre traffic – All RMS intersections in yellow conflicts between network traffic and pedestrian safety and crossing The Esplanade - GTA transport study recommends signals at all 3 intersections John St right turn out of John to King – local circ Bayview roundabout – 4 leg to connect with Charles St
- #18 Major capital works project to implement $2m
- #19 Structure Focus on Dress Circle Highest quality and finest grain buildings no central lane from john st to The Esplanade – 2 links and ped movement along the Dress Circle Convenient links back to parking Crossing to foreshore - at signals and mid block refuge Better cycle links to surrounding suburb
