                                                     About Us

Shoalhaven Action Campaign (SAC) was formed in May 2007 in response to Shoalhaven City Council’s plans for major developments in Huskisson and Ulladulla - developments that had overwhelming community opposition with more than 1000 people in Huskisson and Ulladulla attending public meetings to register their dissent.

SAC supports development in the Shoalhaven that reflects community aspirations and protects the natural environment and draws new residents and tourists to our region.

SAC opposes Shoalhaven City Council’s current pro-development position that preferentially caters for developers above the interests of communities.

SAC promotes a new, fresh approach for local government in the Shoalhaven, one that balances development with a future vision the whole community shares, respects public consultation and demonstrates integrity in decision-making.

Important Announcement:  An LEP review group has been formed to monitor changes being made to this important document.  (more details)

Shoalhaven Local Environment Plan (SLEP)
The 2009 draft SLEP has still not been made available for public scrutiny. This document is our only legal safeguard against inappropriate development in the Shoalhaven.

Burrill Lake
The residents of Burrill Lake need action not excuses from Council. The entrance to lake must be opened and normal tidal movements in the lake restored. (more)
 
Milton Meadows
There is pressure from the State Government to rezone the land that is currently zoned rural 1(b) to 2(a3) which will allow potentially 35 houses (or up to 70 houses under the dual occupancy rule). (more)
