Bellambi Point has undergone rezoning developments with a move towards building 2,500 residences over the next 20 years.
The area has historically been a coastal housing estate with a current population of approximately 4000 as of 2024.
The rezoning is set to cause significant change to the lives Bellambi residents such as Cindel Tinker and her family, who claim this development will damage their sense of community.
Greens Councillor Deidre Stuart proposed a motion that would increase the density of Bellambi with up to six-storey buildings opposed to the ‘Salt and Pepper’ method that would disperse social housing among commercial dwellings.
A protest is set to take place on Saturday at 12pm near Bellambi Beach, where residents are expected to voice their anger about the development plan.
