History

In January 1994, a study was conducted on the area's drainage "to determine future land uses in consideration of the sensitive local environment". [2] The report concluded that a number of constraints may limit development of the land, such as flooding. However, the report did state some areas where residential lots would be viable. [2]

In 2014, Gosford City Council rejected an application for the construction of a Woolworths in the area due to the proximity of other supermarkets, the need for rezoning of conserved bushland, and the significant pressure it would place on local businesses. [3]
