UDIA commends Council for progressing contributions planning in the Wilton Growth Area given the impact of clause 270A of the Environmental Planning and Assessment Regulation 2000 in delaying development in Wilton. We welcome the certainty to industry from the release of the draft WCP.
However, UDIA has a number of concerns regarding the assumptions in the draft WCP, including the population growth, occupancy rates and dwelling take up rates used to derive the proposed charges. We also believe Council has not demonstrated sufficient nexus and apportionment for some of the items identified in the draft schedule of works.
