Item 8.2 -Implementation of the NSW Employment Zones Reform to Bega Valley Local Environmental Plan 2013

Self

Face to Face

I recently purchased my family farm which has had interest in turning the property into a heavy industrial area for over 20years. I would like to submit my property in Item 8.2 to rezone the area as I believe it is in a great location on the Princess Highway half way between Bega and Merimbula/ Pambula with access off the Highway from the same drive way as the Go kart track and Frogs Hollow air strip.
