FAQ
Questions and answers
Q.Is Block H already approved?
No. It has been declared State Significant Development and is currently at Prepare EIS stage under SSD-99885210. Final determination has not happened.
Q.What does Prepare EIS mean?
It means the applicant is preparing the Environmental Impact Statement. The EIS will be publicly exhibited through the NSW Planning Portal. That exhibition window is the formal opportunity for residents to lodge a submission.
Q.Is Billbergia's information session official public exhibition?
No. Developer information sessions may promote the proposal, but the formal SSD public exhibition is a separate official process through the NSW Planning Portal.
Q.Can residents still stop or change this?
Yes. The project is not finally approved. The strongest formal opportunity will be the official SSD public exhibition, but residents should create pressure now by emailing decision-makers and asking them to state their position.
Q.Who should I email first?
Donna Davis MP, the Planning Minister, the Premier, and the Lord Mayor and councillors. Use the Act Now page to draft a personal email.
Q.Why contact Donna Davis?
She is the Member for Parramatta and represents Wentworth Point in State Parliament. Residents are entitled to ask her to state, in writing, whether she supports 1,200 dwellings and two 50-storey towers on Block H.
Q.Why contact Paul Scully?
He is the NSW Minister for Planning and Public Spaces. The SSD pathway sits inside his portfolio. He can require full scrutiny of the application and respond to community concerns.
Q.Why contact current councillors if the State is assessing it?
Council is still on the public record on Block H, makes submissions on State applications, and shapes local infrastructure planning. Residents are entitled to ask each councillor to publish their position.
Q.Why are organiser names not listed?
This website does not publish organiser, resident or admin names. Anonymity keeps the focus on the public record rather than on individual people who could be targeted.
Q.Why are public officials named?
Public officials, councillors, ministers, public voting records and the developer are part of the public record. Naming them is normal civic accountability — not a personal attack.
Q.What should I say in my email?
Say who you are, where you live, that you are writing about SSD-99885210, what your concerns are, and ask one clear question — do you support 1,200 dwellings and two 50-storey towers on Block H, yes or no? Ask for a written response.
Q.Should I copy/paste the same email as everyone else?
No. Use the builder as a draft, then personalise it. Decision-makers give more weight to genuine resident emails than identical mass emails.
Q.What evidence should I upload?
Public, source-able material — official documents you have copies of, dated flyers, photos of public-realm conditions. Do not upload private group posts, screenshots of named residents, or anything that identifies private individuals.
Q.What should I do when official exhibition opens?
Watch the NSW Planning Portal for SSD-99885210. When the EIS is exhibited, lodge a personal written submission through the Portal — that is the strongest formal record a resident can create.
