Proposed Rezoning - Brooks Point Road, Appin

Public Exhibition - Open for Feedback

Council is seeking feedback on a proposed rezoning for 10-20 Brooks Point Road in Appin, for residential development and conservation.

We have received a draft Planning Proposal seeking to amend the Western Parkland City SEPP (State Environmental Planning Policy) as follows:

• Rezone from RU2 Rural Landscape to R2 Low Density Residential and C2 Environmental Conservation
• Amend the Lot Size Map from 40ha to 450m² in the new R2 Low Density Residential Zone, and no minimum lot size in the C2 Environmental Conservation Zone
• Amend the height on the Buildings Map to include a maximum building height of nine metres to facilitate two-storey residential development.

The planning proposal also seeks to amend the Wollondilly Greater Macarthur Area Development Control Plan (DCP) – Schedule Appin Part Precinct (1) to amend Figure 1 to include the Brooks Point site within the Land Application area.

The land subject to the Planning Proposal includes the following lots:

Lot Plan No

1 1267000

3 249446

4 249446

5 249446

1 584515

2 584515

The Planning Proposal seeks to provide approximately 250 residential lots.

We are now seeking community feedback prior to the proposal being assessed and reported to the Council. These assessment reports will include community feedback received during this public exhibition period.
