The National Broadband Network (nbn) is a high speed broadband network designed to reach 100 per cent of Australian premises and provide the communications infrastructure to help us stop falling behind in an increasingly online world.

nbn is committed to delivering leading edge broadband services to all Australians by leveraging the three types of technology available fixed line, fixed wireless and satellite, depending on location.

As part of the fixed radio (wireless) component of the Network, nbn is proposing to expand the existing radio network base stations at the following locations:
* “Gemlly” Lot 128 Stevenson Street, Guyra NSW 2365

The works are to provide high quality wireless broadband services to customers in the surrounding localities.

The proposed works on site will involve the upgrade of existing technology upon the facility including and not limited to the replacement and installation of new antennas, radio-communication dishes and associated ancillary equipment to enhance transmitting technology. Furthermore the works will involve the replacement and addition of equipment shelters/outdoor units adjacent to the facility.

nbn regards the proposed installations as Exempt Development under the State Environmental Planning Policy (Infrastructure) 2007. In these circumstances, it does not require planning approval from Council.

This notification is undertaken in accordance with the requirements of Section 7 of the Mobile Phone Base Station Deployment Code 2018.

Further information on this specific proposal can be obtained by calling Joel Stuart on (02) 9439 1006

Written submissions can be sent to PO box 31, Crows Nest 1585 or via E: joel.stuart@metasite.com.au

The closing date for submissions is February 26th 2019.
