Ethos Urban has prepared a Foreshore Scenic Character Study for Council. This Study investigates the mapped extent and zoning of the Foreshore Scenic Protection Area (FSPA), in accordance with the resolution made by the Georges River Local Planning Panel on 25 and 26 June 2020. 

The Study clarifies the types of local character present in the Georges River foreshore areas through surveys of every street. The Neighbourhood Character Site Survey Matrix details the findings of the street-by-street surveys.

The Study is a technical and evidence-based document and it was reported to Council’s meeting in June 2021.

The Study will help Council in developing and reviewing local planning measures, including future amendments to the Georges River Local Environmental Plan and the accompanying Development Control Plan.

Ethos Urban has developed a set of Frequently Asked Questions to help with understanding the Study.
