Daily Telegraph –
Up to 800 “desperately needed” homes proposed to be developed on a southwest Sydney cattle farm could be blocked by local bureaucrats, highlighting a “sadly too common” barrier to building new housing in the city.
Officers at Camden Council have asked councillors to reject plans at a meeting on Tuesday for hundreds of new homes at Tidapa, near Cobbitty in the city’s southwest, over what they see as a lack of nearby infrastructure, the impact on a neighbouring heritage-listed vineyard and the environmental impact on the former cattle grazing run.
