Proposed Rezoning - Maldon Employment Lands

Now on Public Exhibition

We are inviting feedback on a Planning Proposal to rezone land for employment and environmental conservation purposes at 40-45 Maldon Bridge Road and Staff Road, Maldon.

This would enable the expansion of employment land for heavy industrial uses. The site is currently zoned RU2 Rural Landscapes under the Wollondilly Local Environmental Plan 2011.

The Planning Proposal seeks to amend the following in the Wollondilly Local Environmental Plan 2011 and State Environmental Planning Policy (Precincts – Western Parkland City) 2021:

  • Amending the Land Zoning Map to rezone land from RU2 Rural Landscape to part E5 Heavy Industrial Zone and part C2 Environmental Conservation Zone.
  • Amending the Lot Size Map to introduce a minimum lot size of 5000m2 for the proposed E5 Heavy Industrial Zone and 7ha for the C2 Environmental Conservation Zone.

The subject site is located within the Maldon Precinct of the Wilton Growth Area (WGA) which has been identified for future employment. The proposed heavy industrial rezoning is anticipated to generate an additional 320 jobs which will support Wilton’s local economy and the 15,000 job target set for WGA.

The site comprises approximately 22.72ha of land located on the western side of Maldon Bridge Road and Staff Road in Maldon, and is within the Boral Cements operation which is located to the east of Maldon Bridge Road. The site is suitable for the expansion of industrial land and is well serviced with minimal infrastructure upgrades required to support future development.
