Planning Proposal to Amend Clause 6.5 - Development Committee Resolution

On Monday 22 January, Council's Development Committee considered a report on a proposed Planning Proposal (PP) to amend Clause 6.5 of Shoalhaven Local Environmental Plan 2014.

The minutes are available at https://shoalhaven.nsw.gov.au/My-Council/Council-meetings/Agendas-and-minutes with the resolution provided below:

1. Support the preparation and submission of a Planning Proposal for Gateway determination to amend Clause 6.5 of Shoalhaven Local Environmental Plan 2014 to include reference to land associated with Urban Release Areas to rectify the identified anomaly.

2. If Gateway determination is received, proceed to public exhibition to at least the requirement specified in the Gateway determination.

This means that Council will now make an application to the NSW Department of Planning & Environment (DPE) to amend Clause 6.5 to address the anomaly identified.

Amending the Clause will effect land within mapped Urban Release Areas that have split zones (i.e. part residential and part rural/environmental). The Clause intends to allow subdivision to create a "residual" lot made up of the non-urban zone, and the potential to obtain development approval to erect a dwelling on the residual lot.

The clause, at this time, only relates to land that is mapped "Urban Release Area". In the case of the Nowra-Bomaderry Urban Release Areas, the non-urban zones are not mapped, which means the clause cannot apply.

The purpose of this PP is to rectify this anomaly so that the clause operates as it was intended.
