DELIVERY PROGRAM REPORTS
A LIVEABLE CITY
A Leading City
Comment from Director – Craig Butler
The Darug Tribal Aboriginal Corporation has a land claim. This covers a very extensive area and includes lands within Penrith. The claim was lodged in 1997 and is yet to be determined.
Late last week a letter was received from a third party. The letter, which is from the Darug Tribal Aboriginal Corporation, claims that native title has not been adequately considered in preparing and advancing the draft LEP.
Council’s officers have previously consulted with the Corporation on at least three occasions and this point has not been made by the Corporation. Based upon our experience and understanding of the EP&A Act, we believe due process has been followed in the preparation of the draft LEP.
If Council adopts the recommendations this evening, there are drafting changes to be made to the Plan before it can be sent to the Minister for Planning for it to be made. This will allow time to further examine the Corporation’s assertions and to confer with the Department of Planning.
I have circulated to the Councillors a draft recommendation which I feel will provide the Council with comfort that the Plan will not be advanced to the Minister without our current view on this matter being corroborated.
