UDIA noted that the Draft SIC will underpin the anticipated growth in 45,000 jobs and up to 30,000 dwellings by 2041 to further grow the region, which contains four diverse local government areas including Wollongong City, Kiama, Shellharbour City and Shoalhaven City. UDIA commended DPIE’s vision to commence the initial steps to develop and lead the planning framework for the Illawarra Shoalhaven which needs the support of the development industry, local councils, the community, and key State government and utility agencies.
