Cyprus Community of NSW committed to working with Inner West Council on rezoning plan

·

The Board of the Cyprus Community of NSW have expressed their commitment to working with the Inner West Council to progress their rezoning plan for The Cyprus Club at Stanmore in Sydney’s inner west.

The Community has issued a statement today after The Greek Herald reported on Monday that the Council did not support the Community’s rezoning plan in its current form.

Full statement from the Cyprus Community of NSW:

The Cyprus Community’s Planning Proposal to rezone the club’s site at Stanmore went before the Inner West Council last week.

Councillors expressed strong support for the Cyprus Community and its objective to remain at Stanmore and redevelop its premises.

Approval for the Planning Proposal in its current form was not granted at this stage due to some concerns over traffic management and height levels.

The Cyprus Club at Stanmore.

Councillors who spoke on the matter urged Council staff to work with the Cyprus Community to urgently resolve these matters so that approval may be granted in the coming months.

The recent Council decision was to be expected, and the Board has an ongoing plan in place to complete the rezoning within the coming months. We have already prepared the next steps required to complete the rezoning process and confidently anticipate it will be finalised by Council and the State government in the first part of 2023.

The president of the Community, Andrew Costa, wishes to thank Councillors for their expressions of support of the Cyprus Community and has renewed the club’s commitment to work with the Council and state government to progress the rezoning to completion in the near future.
