STATUS – Council indicates that the new DA has insufficient info
17 October 2024 : “Following the withdrawal of the previous development application for this site earlier this year and the return of the previous development application for the site earlier this month, a new development application for this site has been received.
Council officers have undertaken a preliminary review of the application. While many of the matters previously identified have been included in the new development application, there is still some information that is required. Council officers have sent a request for this information to be provided within 7 days.”
9 October 2024 : “Following the receipt of a new development application for this site, Council has undertaken a preliminary review of the application. Some important information to assess the application was not included, and Council has therefore returned the application to the applicant and will not be actioning the application.
Council anticipates that a new development application on the proposal may be received in the future. Council will provide further information if a new development application is received.”
Link to the NEW DA : DA2024/0512
This was submitted on 27th September 2024. Presumably Council will now commence the process to consider if the DA should proceed to various assessment stages. Updates will be posted on this web site as more information becomes available.
Link to the previous (withdrawn Feb.24) DA : DA2023/0130
1 October 2024 : Council has distributed a letter to those who lodged an objection to the previous DA, informing that “a new development application has been lodged with Council for the proposed organic waste transfer station at 109A Church Street, Lidcombe.“

What types of rubbish would go through the proposed tip?
From the Environmental Impact Statement 109A Church Street, Lidcombe – Organics Transfer Station. A Submission to Cumberland Council, 9th March 2023 (English, pdf, 12MB) section 2.6.7 Waste Classification (page 40):
“The waste received on site would be comprised of food waste and garden waste.
The Waste Classification Guidelines, Part 1, classifies food waste and garden waste as general solid waste (putrescible) and general solid waste (non putrescible). It is noted that a mixture of anything referred to as putrescible renders the entire material putrescible. Hence, the classification of waste throughput is deemed to be general solid waste (putrescible).
Food waste
general solid waste (putrescible) means waste (other than special waste, hazardous waste, restricted solid waste or liquid waste) that includes any of the following—
(a) household waste containing putrescible organics,
(b) waste from litter bins collected by or on behalf of local councils,
(c) manure and nightsoil,
(d) disposable nappies, incontinence pads or sanitary napkins,
(e) food waste,
(f) animal waste,
(g) grit or screenings from sewage treatment systems that have been dewatered so that the grit or screenings do not contain free liquids,
(h) anything that is classified as general solid waste (putrescible) pursuant to an EPA Gazettal notice,
(i) anything that is classified as general solid waste (putrescible) pursuant to the Waste Classification Guidelines,
(j) a mixture of anything referred to in paragraphs (a)–(i).”
