Bulahdelah Highway Service Centre Planning Agreement Reference Group

The purpose of the Bulahdelah Highway Service Centre Planning Agreement Reference Group is to identify a prioritised package of proposed improvements to Bulahdelah that may be included in a Planning Agreement associated with the Planning Proposal.

This information will then be utilised by Council and its Consultant to negotiate a Planning Agreement with the proponent that, once endorsed by Council, will be included with the Planning Proposal for Public Exhibition.

The Reference Group will dissolve upon the Council endorsement of a list of priority improvements to Bulahdelah, following a formal exhibition process. 

The Bulahdelah Highway Service Centre Planning Agreement Reference Group will provide guidance to Council on the following (but not limited to) key areas:

• Identifying street improvements to Bulahdelah, including landscaping.
• Identifying additional facilities and infrastructure for RV/caravans.
• Identifying business assistance package options.
• Identifying options for local promotions of the area at the Highway Service Centre.
• Identification of other improvements to Bulahdelah.
• Prioritising the list of improvements.
• Engaging with the community to ‘test’ the list and priorities.
• Providing a final priority list of improvements and recommendations on the business assistance package and local promotions options.
