The LGA boundary line up in our neck of the woods seems pretty illogical, perhaps not just impacting us but some nearby factory units aswell. Would have been nice to have this type of issue addressed with the recent amalgamations and boundary changes but life goes on.
While DP703826 is entirely in the Parramatta LGA but shouldn't be, the LGA boundary line actually cuts straight through DP876406.
Perhaps of interest is the fact that the floodplain looks nothing like it did a generation ago. Below is a photo map from 1943 showing the creek prior to the area being developed.
Years ago I transposed the former boundary of the Governor's Vice-Regal Domain onto a modern map, which provides a record of where the creek ran over 200 years ago. A zoom section of this overlay can be seen below (note - the green area is the domain).
