Lane Cove Council Slam Bushfire Accessibility Report

Lane Cove Council have issued a report which analysis the Department of Planning commissioned Lane Cove Bushfire Accessibility Report.

The report was commissioned in response to the Rural Fire Service withholding the endorsement of Development Applications lodged within the Bushfire Prone area of the Mowbray Precinct. The report was aimed at being a comprehensive traffic study designed to assess the cumulative effects of the rezoning and what impact this would have upon residents evacuating during a bushfire emergency.

The report has been read by the SBCRA and as such we fully support the view held by Council in response to the report.
