The campaign now enters its next phase.
The proposed Narrow Neck Road development is awaiting a decision by the NSW Minister for Planning and Public Spaces. While the public exhibition has closed, the Minister can still consider community views before making his decision.
We’re encouraging everyone who cares about the future of the Blue Mountains to write a short, respectful letter asking the Minister not to approve the proposed development at 142–150 Narrow Neck Road, Katoomba, to exempt the Blue Mountains from the Housing Delivery Authority (HDA) pathway, and to request an Independent Planning Commission public hearing into the proposal.
Download our Letter Writing Guide for suggested points, instructions and contact details.
