Going up - Elyard Gardens

So, the demolition of the houses on Somerset Avenue is the beginning of the Elyard Gardens development, according to an article in the Macarthur Chronicle today. It's the beginning of high-density development in the heart of our area and follows on from similar developments planned for Oran Park and Leppington.

You may remember last year at a Council meeting the development application to remediate the area immediately behind the Narellan Town Centre. This is part of Elyard Gardens development.

To help you get a sense of what the development may finally look like I have brought together the three key documents including the original master plan. I can't find anything more recent at the moment but the three documents I have found are:

The original Elyard Garden Masterplan (2005).
DartWest submission to South West District Plan. (March 2017, 15.0m file - really slow loading because someone left layering on).
Camden Planning Proposal 2011. The most recent publicly available document and likely the most accurate. see Anexure A.

​Hopefully these will help cut through the speculation to see what is actually planned.

    My name is Alvin Stone. I'm a former community newspaper editor with Fairfax and News Corp. In that role, I always fought for my local community. I thought those days were well past but the rise of party politics at Camden Council at a crucial time in the region's development has brought me back via this website.
    Local media outlets are struggling with too few staff and too many stories, so I have decided to keep my focus simple - Camden Council. The idea is to help keep our council transparent and highlight in plain language the decisions they have made, so residents can remain informed about what is going on in their name.
