Planning proposal seeks to amend Bathurst Regional Local Environmental Plan for youth…
What happened
A planning proposal is currently on public exhibition, seeking to amend the Bathurst Regional Local Environmental Plan to permit a site-specific additional use for land at 390 Panorama Avenue. This land is intended for a youth hostel aimed at increasing affordable housing options for homeless youth and apprentices. The plans evolved from a previous concept for a 30-bed youth foyer, but that partnership was scrapped due to a partner withdrawing and lack of available funding.
Why it matters
The proposal seeks regulatory approval from the Bathurst Regional Council to change the land use at 390 Panorama Avenue. While the project is currently unfunded and has not prepared a development application, its potential implementation relates to increasing local accommodation for young people.
