Background Information

Wingecarribee Shire Council gave notice in pursuance of the provisions of the Roads Act 1993, that it was proposing to close part of the unnamed Council Public Road Reserve at Bullio, as shown in the aerial map in the Document Library on this page.

The area of proposed closure was approximately 1,700 square meters, subject to final survey. The purpose of the proposed closure, along with adjoining land that was to be transferred to the Council, was to be consolidated and held for bushfire shed purposes (currently unfunded) in Bullio.

Upon closure of the Council Public Road Reserve, the land was to remain vested in the Council as Operational Land pursuant to the Local Government Act, 1993.

All interested persons were invited to make submissions concerning the proposal to Wingecarribee Shire Council. It was noted that under the provisions of the Government Information (Public Access) Act 2009, such submissions might be referred to third parties for consideration.

Your feedback is a way for you to share your thoughts and ideas on a particular issue or project. The goal is to make sure your voice and the community’s voices are heard and considered. It helps provide valuable insights, identify potential issues and suggest improvements. This way, decisions can be more inclusive, transparent and effective, reflecting what you and the community really needs and wants.

Responses to engagement projects are compiled and considered. When projects are reported to Council to make a decision a summary of community feedback will be included. Updates on projects will be included in these pages and elsewhere on Council's website.

Sometimes it takes some months to provide feedback to the community and to make a decision as further investigation is often needed. We are listening and we do take your suggestions on board!

Next Steps

Now the submission period is completed, Council will consider all duly made submissions before deciding whether to proceed with the closure.
