ITEM 6

PC5/25 - Hornsby Town Centre – Draft Public Domain Plan, Development Contributions Plan and Development Control Plan Amendments

 

Additional information with CHANGE to Recommendation

 

Since the finalisation of Director’s Report No. PC5/25, an omission has been identified in the Hornsby Town Centre draft Public Domain Guideline.

As Councillors would be aware, Hornsby Shire Council has joined the Northern Sydney Dementia Collaborative to work towards becoming a dementia friendly community. To align with this, Council’s existing Public Domain Guidelines (which relate to Asquith, Beecroft, Waitara, Thornleigh and West Pennant Hills) include specific dementia friendly design and maintenance considerations and reference Alzheimer’s Australia’s ‘Guidelines for the Development of Friendly Communities” and Local Government Toolkit. 

The Hornsby Town Centre Public Domain Guideline should also include the same design and maintenance considerations and references. It is recommended that the document be updated during public exhibition.  

 

RECOMMENDATION

THAT:

1.         Council endorse the draft Hornsby Town Centre Public Domain Guidelines, draft Hornsby Town Centre Precinct Section 7.12 Development Contributions Plan 2025 and draft amendments to Hornsby Development Control Plan 2024 attached to Director’s Report PC5/25 for public exhibition.

2.         During exhibition period, the draft Hornsby Town Centre Public Domain Guidelines be updated to reflect the specific dementia friendly design and maintenance considerations and references from the existing Public Domain Guidelines.

3.         Following exhibition, a report on submissions be presented to Council for consideration.

4.         Council write to Transport for NSW and Department of Planning, Housing and Infrastructure to express concerns about the traffic generating changes to the proposed split bus interchange.
