Proposed rezoning of 147 Garnet Road, Kareela | Consultation Outcomes Report | 19 May 2020
Ethos Urban | 2200243 2
1.0 Introduction
This engagement outcomes report has been prepared by Ethos Urban on behalf of Sylvanvale, to outline the key
matters raised during local community engagement in relation to the proposed rezoning of 147 Garnet Road,
Kareela. The findings of the local community engagement have been used to inform Sylvanvale’s site Subdivision
Application and the Planning Proposal (rezoning application) for part of the site.
This report includes information about the project context, the approach to local community engagement, and the
feedback received. It has been prepared for Sutherland Shire Council to provide information about community
sentiment in relation to the proposed future development of the site.
1.1 Project Context
Sylvanvale’s head office has been located at 147 Garnet Road for a number of years. The facility is now aging and
no longer fit for purpose. Sylvanvale is currently investigating the opportunity to relocate their office to a more
suitable business centre, enabling Sylvanvale to achieve higher design standards for accessibility and inclusion,
including improved access to public transport and a more suitable typography for people with a disability.
Sylvanvale own the land at 147 Garnet Road. The relocation of the office would free up some of the site for sale,
noting that existing recently constructed childcare centre will be retained under a proposed site subdivision.
The proceeds from the sale of the site would allow Sylvanvale to relocate its head office to better meet the needs of
the foundation and clients, and will support Sylvanvale in pursuing the provision of Specialist Disability
Accommodation throughout the Sutherland Shire.
Couvaras Architects have worked on an initial development proposal which includes 42 new townhouses on site.
The development of the townhouses requires a Planning Proposal (rezoning application) to be submitted to
Sutherland Shire Council (Council), to rezone part of the land to R3 under the Sutherland Shire Local Environmental
Plan 2015.
The site is currently zoned SP2 (Educational Establishment), with a height limit of 12m and no maximum FSR or
minimum landscaped area requirement.
The development would require future dwellings on site to comply with the maximum building height of 9m,
under Zone R3. This would allow the dwellings to have a good relationship with the site topography and
surrounding buildings.
Sylvanvale is committed to engaging with the Sutherland Shire community and saw value in early community
engagement in relation to the proposals on the site. Sylvanvale is committed to further engagement as part of the
Planning Proposal process, which specifies statutory periods of community consultation and feedback.

2.0 Engagement Approach
The community engagement approach was developed in close collaboration with Sylvanvale and the project
planners, Wynne Planning. It was designed to be practical and effective in capturing valuable feedback from the
local community including immediate neighbouring organisations, immediate residents and other residents in close
proximity to the site (with 250m walk by road).
2.1 Objectives
The objectives of the consultation were to:
Introduce Sylvanvale, their vision, and hopes for the new office and Specialist Disability Accommodation.
Provide an overview of the proposed development draft scheme, including the findings of the background
studies, the possible impacts identified and mitigation strategies.
Explain the rezoning application process, including periods of community consultation.
Develop and build the relationships between Sylvanvale and the local community.
Understand and consider the views of the local community, prior to submitting the Planning Proposal to Council.
2.2 Principles
The engagement process was developed considering the following principles:
• Accessible and inclusive – people were given the opportunity to attend a meeting, call or email the project
team. Immediate neighbouring organisations and residents were able to nominate their preferred time of the
meeting. An evening session was held for other local residents, noting many of them may have other
commitments during the day.
• Engaging and appropriate – online video conference software was used to allow Sylvanvale, the project team
and local community members to ‘get to know’ each other. Project team members were available to talk about
the proposal and answer questions.
• Respectful and genuine– Sylvanvale reiterated its commitment to contributing positively to the Sutherland
Shire and working closely with the local community to ensure the best possible outcomes.
• Tailored and constructive – the communications and engagement approach was tailored to the specific needs
of individual local community members. Individual discussions with local organisations enabled an
understanding of their specific needs and interests.
2.3 Methods
The engagement period was undertaken during the COVID-19 pandemic; therefore the engagement methods were
selected to comply with physical distancing measures but ensure the opportunity for local community information
and feedback were not compromised.
2.3.1 Emails and letters to immediate neighbours
Personalised emails and letters were prepared to immediate neighbours to invite them to a one on one video
conference meeting with Sylvanvale’s Chief Executive Officer and project manager, the project planner and project
engagement representative. The emails and letters included contextual information about Sylvanvale, their
relocation plans and proposed plans for the site.
Contact included:
Four emails to neighbouring organisations – Sylvanvale Mikarie Child Care Centre (tenant), Aspect Australia
(tenant), Council (Joseph Banks Nature Plants Reserve landowner and manager); and Bates Drive School.
Three letters to neighbouring residents – 1, 3 and 4 Mikarie Place.

Ethos Urban | 2200243 5
2.3.2 Letterbox drop to residents
Letters were delivered to local residents on Friday 1 May 2020, to invite them to attend a community information
webinar. The letter was delivered to approximately 50 households, including properties on Mikarie Place, Manooka
Place, Albany Place and Garnet Road (between Marshall Road and Mikarie Place).
A copy of the letter is in Appendix A and the distribution area map is included in Appendix B. A guide to logging
into and using Zoom was also included with the letter.
2.3.3 Presentation
A presentation was developed to support the engagement activities. The presentation included information about:
The purpose of the meeting and agenda;
The rules of engagement and guidance on how to use Zoom during the session;
Sylvanvale’s background, vision and aspirations; and
The proposed rezoning and subdivision intent and process, the constraints and opportunities of the site, the
studies undertaken, the draft scheme and proposed landscaping and parking, and the outcomes of the parking
and traffic assessments.
A copy of the presentation is in Appendix C.
2.4 Activities and tools

Joseph Banks Nature Plants Reserve during the engagement period, however previous discussions have been held
with Council regarding the proposal. A meeting with be organised as the proposal progresses.
2.4.2 Community information Webinar
The community information webinar was held on Tuesday, 12 May 2020, between 6pm and 7.30pm, using Zoom
video conference software. The purpose of this community information session was to provide local residents with
information about the proposed rezoning and subdivision applications and give them an opportunity to ask
questions prior to the submission of the Planning Proposal. Nine local residents attended the session, from five
households.
The webinar was facilitated by an independent community engagement consultant from Ethos Urban. The webinar
begun with a presentation from the project team including Sylvanvale’s Chief Executive Officer, the project planner,
architect and traffic engineer. The presentation was followed by a question and answer session.

3.0 Engagement Feedback
3.1 Community Organisations
The following feedback was received from local community organisations. All local community organisations were
supportive of the proposal.
Organisation Comments or question Response
Aspect Australia • Commented on its innovation
• Thought it was sensible and would be of great benefit to Sylvanvale and Aspect
customers
• Agrees with the site being difficult to access for people with a disability
• Liked the landscaping proposal
• Asked when construction would begin and where excavation would take place
• Mentioned local residents will be interested
in the parking strategy.
• Preliminary Landscape Design Plans have been developed for the draft scheme.
• An Access, Parking and Traffic Assessment demonstrates positive.
• Sylvanvale will continue to keep Aspect Australia up to date. Aspect Australia is due to move off the
site in 2020 so will not be directly impacted by the construction period.
Bates Drive School • Supportive of the relocation and understand how it will benefit Sylvanvale’s customers
• Requested continued access via Mikarie Place. This is currently informal; their
preference would be for this to be formalised as a secondary access point.
• Requested the removal of tress adjoining
their land due to health and safety concerns.
• Sylvanvale will investigate the formalisation of secondary access to the school via land at 2 Manooka Place and 147 Garnet Road. Primary access will remain on Bates Drive.
• Tree removal to be discussed as part of the future development application.
• Sylvanvale will continue to keep Bates Drive
School up to date.
3.2 Local residents
The section below provides a summary of the feedback received from the nine residents at the community
information session and in the two feedback emails.
16 feedback topics were raised – 12 at the community information session and four on emails. The most commonly
related to traffic and access, the details of the draft scheme and fire protection.
It is worth noting that, the majority of local residents contacted about the community information webinar chose not
to attend, suggesting a low level of community concern about the proposal.
Topic Comments or question Response
Traffic and access (5
comments)
• Question about the assumption about the number of cars per dwelling
• Request for information on the traffic and parking assessment
• Comment that there have been
some traffic incidents outside the Childcare Centre, request for information about how this will be
reduced
• Question about whether there is appetite to provide access to the townhouses via Bates Drive
• Perception that the proposal will result in an increase in traffic on quiet residential streets
• Traffic consultants have used data provided by Roads and Maritime Services (Transport for NSW)
• An Access, Traffic and Parking Assessment been
completed and provided to Council.
• There will be a no parking zone either side of the 2 Mikarie Place driveway and the driveway will be widened by 1m to
allow for two cars to pass
• There are a number of constraints which prevent access to 147 Garnet Road via Bates Drive.
Proposed rezoning of 147 Garnet Road, Kareela | Consultation Outcomes Report | 19 May 2020
Ethos Urban | 2200243 8
Topic Comments or question Response
Details of the draft
scheme (3
comments)
• Question about the height of the new townhouse in the context of
visual impact for local residents
• Question about whether the draft scheme is purely hypothetical at this
stage
• Question about where Council standards on medium density in a
cul-de-sac
• An R3 Zoning would allow townhouses of up to 9m. A Visual Impact Assessment has been carried out and
shows limited visual impact, with the proposed development only being visible to a few direct neighbours.
• The R3 Zoning is considered appropriate for the site due to
the surrounding topography and mix of nearby industrial and residential uses.
• The draft scheme has been developed to demonstrate the
capability of the land under a residential zone, it is not being presented as a Development Application.
Fire protection (2
comments)
• Question about fire protection, noting the draft scheme shows one road in and out.
• Request for information about the fire buffer zone
• A Bushfire Assessment has been prepared to support the Planning Proposal. This must also be reviewed by the Rural Fire Service as part of the planning submission.
Parking (1 comment) • Comment about frustration with current number of cars parked on the street and concern that
proposed car spaces will end up being used as storage space, leading to an overspill of cars on the
streets
• The parking has been designated as per the DCP requirements and includes visitor parking.
• Parking spaces will be provided to discourage storage use,
as opposed to lock up garages
• There will be minimum storage requirements for the townhouses inside and within basements
• An Access, Traffic and Parking Assessment shows less
traffic movements and no requirement for parking overspill on the surrounding residential streets.
Road reserve at 2
Mikarie Place (1
comment)
• Question about whether Council has provided any information about the
intended future zoning of 2 Mikarie Place
• Council has not provided any indication that there will be any change to the existing zoning of 2 Mikarie Place.
Project timeline (1
comment)
• Question about the earliest possible timescale construction will take place.
• Prior to any construction commencing, Sylvanvale must gain approval for the land rezoning (via a Planning Proposal) and development (via Development Application),
and the land would need to be sold. This process is likely to take 2 – 3 years.
Childcare Centre
traffic and parking (1
comment)
• Question about the Childcare Centre staffing, customers, access and parking, and whether the proposed
zoning with change this
• The Childcare Centre drop off, access and parking requirements will remain the same. No reduction or expansion is planned.
Appropriateness of
the proposal (1
comment)
• Concerned that the land is not appropriate for medium density residential development, and townhouses would give an adverse
effect on the neighbourhood character and flora and fauna of the area
• The draft scheme has been developed considering the local topography and surrounding residential use of the local area, and is considered appropriate in the context of the surrounding land use zoning and built form.
• Opportunity and constraints analysis has been undertaken to identify issues for consideration, this guided the background technical studies which were undertaken
which demonstrate the suitability of this development.
Disagreement with
the sale of the land
(1 comment)
• Concern that the development is solely about the generation of money
• The proceeds from the sale of the site would allow Sylvanvale to relocate its head office to better meet the needs of the foundation and clients, and will support
Sylvanvale in pursuing the provision of Specialist Disability Accommodation throughout the Sutherland Shire.
• The site is not suitable for future use by Sylvanvale and the people it supports.

4.0 Conclusion and next steps
This engagement outcomes report provides an overview of the local community engagement undertaken prior to the
submission of Sylvanvale’s Planning Proposal to request the rezoning of land at 147 Garnet Road, Kareela.
Sylvanvale, in partnership with Wynne Planning and Ethos Urban, developed and implemented an engagement
strategy to ensure local community organisations, direct neighbours and other local residents, were informed about
the proposal and given the opportunity to ask questions and provide feedback.
Local community organisations (including the Mikarie Childcare Centre, Aspect Australia and Bates Drive School)
expressed their support for the proposal. The majority of local residents chose not to attend the community
information webinar, suggesting a low level of concern.
Nine local residents attended the community information webinar (from five households) and two feedback emails
were received. Feedback asked questions about or made comments about the following issues:
Traffic and access proposals;
Details of the draft scheme;
Fire protection measures;
Parking – existing and future;
Road reserve at 2 Mikarie Place;
The project timeline;
Childcare Centre traffic and parking;
The appropriateness of the proposal; and
Expressing disagreement with the proposal (one person).
Sylvanvale addressed all of the questions and comments during the engagement period, questions and comments
were responded to at the community information webinar and emails were replied to.
A range of technical studies have been undertaken, which address many of the feedback received and demonstrate
the appropriateness of the proposed subdivision and rezoning.
Sylvanvale will continue to provide opportunities for the local community to enquire about and provide feedback on
the proposal as the Planning Proposal and subsequent Development Application progress.

Dear Resident,
Supporting Sylvanvale’s future – Possible rezoning of land at 147 Garnet Road, Kareela
I am writing to inform you of our proposed future plans for the Sylvanvale head office site, located at 147 Garnet Road, Kareela.
Sylvanvale has been an essential community provider in the Sutherland Shire since 1947, starting life as the Handicapped Children’s Centre New South Wales. Our core was and still is – community. We are committed to providing a high quality, customer-focused service to the people we support and their families. Today, we support more than 750 children and adults with disability throughout the Sydney metropolitan area and, to this day, have a strong presence in the Sutherland Shire.
Unfortunately, our head office facility is aging and is no longer fit for purpose. The office is also difficult to access due to public transport limitations and the topography of the area. We are currently considering opportunities to relocate our office to a more suitable business centre, with higher design standards for accessibility and inclusion.
The relocation of our office is subject to the sale of the land we own at 147 Garnet Road. In addition to a new head office and associated customer facilities, the proceeds from the sale of the land would support the provision of new Specialist Disability Accommodation in the Sutherland Shire.
We are in the process of preparing a Planning Proposal (rezoning application) to request the rezoning of the land to allow for the development of new townhouses. We are expecting to submit the Planning Proposal to Sutherland Shire Council in mid-May 2020.
A number of background studies have been undertaken to inform this proposal, including an assessment of bushfires, flooding, flora and fauna, traffic and parking, stormwater, landscaping and visual impact. The recently constructed childcare centre will remain open.
We are committed to ongoing community engagement as our proposal develops, as the proposal is in the early stages, this will initially involve engagement with neighbouring organisations and residents.
As a neighbouring resident, we invite you to attend a community information webinar to find out more about the proposal, our vision for Sylvanvale and to ask questions.
Details of the community information webinar are as follows.
