🏡 Wyee West Subdivision Blocked by Infrastructure Woes

A petition has been lodged with the NSW State Parliament highlighting significant infrastructure deficiencies at the Wyee West Paper Subdivision (DP 7506) in Lake Macquarie. Landholders in the area are currently unable to build due to the lack of essential services including roads, drainage, sewerage, water, and electricity.

Despite numerous attempts by residents and a formal reference group involving Lake Macquarie City Council, these vital services remain undelivered. This situation is particularly concerning given the current housing crisis, which has seen record stress for renters and a desperate need for new housing options. The Wyee West subdivision has the potential to house hundreds of people, yet remains stalled.

Completing the Wyee West development would also establish the Radcliffe to Wyee Station link, enhancing safe access and transport for the surrounding areas, and is conveniently located within walking distance of Wyee Station.

The petitioners are urging the NSW Government to take immediate action. They request the government to:

• Actively coordinate and oversee the delivery of the necessary infrastructure.
• Provide State Government funding and establish fair cost-recovery mechanisms.
• Allow development applications to proceed, potentially with deferred commencement conditions.
• Prioritise the Wyee West Paper Subdivision as a Critical Housing and Community Renewal Project.

This critical project in Wyee remains blocked, impacting housing availability and community development.
