Protecting the visual significance and landscape quality of Mosman’s foreshore slopes and the amenity of existing residential properties has been a Council priority for many years. To maintain the Mosman Scenic Protection Area, Council is required to seek exclusions from the State Government’s Housing Code on an ongoing basis.

Council has been seeking more permanent protective measures and is now proposing to rezone R2 low density residential land that is located within the Mosman Scenic Protection Area to E4 Environmental Living. This would apply to the 2,631 properties within, or partly within, the Mosman Scenic Protection Area currently zoned as low density residential, R2.

Public exhibition now on until 10 November 2021. To find out more, visit
