(c)  the proposed use would have little or no adverse effect on the amenity of the area, and

(d)  the conservation of the building depends on the council granting consent as provided by this clause.

(2)  When considering an application to erect a building on land on which there is situated a building which is a heritage item, the council may:

(a)  for the purposes of determining the floor space ratio, and

(b)  for the purposes of determining the number of parking spaces to be provided on the site, exclude from its calculation of the floor space of the buildings erected on the land the floor space of the item, but only if the council is satisfied that the conservation of the building depends upon the council making that exclusion.

36 Land subject to bushfire hazards

The council shall not consent to subdivision of or to the erection of a building on the land to which this plan applies which, in the opinion of the council is subject to bushfire hazards, unless it has made an assessment of:

(a)  whether adequate provision has been made for access to the land for fire fighting vehicles, fire breaks, reserves and fire radiation zones, and

(b)  in the case of a subdivision of land, whether the depth of any allotments to be created by the subdivision which would adjoin a perimeter road is adequate, and

37 Development near boundary of adjacent zones

(1)  Subject to subclause (2), development which is permitted within a zone may, with the consent of the council, be carried out on land in an adjacent zone other than Zone No 6 (a), 6 (b), 7 (a), 7 (b), 8 (a) or 9 (d) within 20 metres of the boundary between the zones.

(2)  The council may grant consent under the Act to the carrying out of development pursuant to subclause (1) only where the carrying out of the development is necessary, in the opinion of the council, due to planning, design, servicing or similar requirements relating to the optimum development of land to which this plan applies.

38 Assessment of the impact of development adjacent to Zone No 9 (e)

The council shall, when considering an application to carry out development on land adjacent to land within Zone No 9 (e), make an assessment of the impact of that development on the aesthetic, historical, natural, scenic and scientific attributes of the land within that zone.

(a)  those (if any) specified for the land in Column 3 of Part 3 of Schedule 6, and

(b)  any reservations that except land out of a Crown grant relating to the land, and

(2)  In determining whether to grant consent as referred to in subclause (1), the council shall take into consideration:

(a)  the protection of the environment and the amenity of the locality during and immediately after the proposed use,

(b)  whether appropriate arrangements will be made for the provision of utility services, vehicular and pedestrian access, parking and restoration of the site to the condition prevailing immediately before the proposed use, and

(c)  whether the period for the proposed use is the shortest period that is reasonable in the circumstances.

(3)  However, the Council is not to grant consent to a temporary use of land that would require the permanent alteration of the land, the filling of land, the removal of native vegetation or alteration to a heritage item.

(c)  to retain and enhance the natural functions of riparian corridors, and

(d)  to provide for controlled pedestrian and bicycle access to, and sensitively integrated fire trails on, such land, and

(e)  to allow for controlled recreational uses having regard to environmentally significant values of the land, and

(f)  to protect items and places of Aboriginal heritage significance, and

(g)  to enable the appropriate location on such land of gas drainage infrastructure required for underground coal mining, having regard to environmentally significant values of the land, and to ensure that such infrastructure is designed in accordance with industry best practice guidelines, where existing.

(3)  Before granting consent to the carrying out of development on land to which this clause applies, the consent authority must be satisfied that the development:

(a)  would substantially retain existing vegetation, and

(i)  the ecological value of the existing bushland vegetation, or

(ii)  native fauna, or

(iii)  the scenic qualities of the locality.

(4)  Before granting consent to the carrying out of development on land to which this clause applies, the consent authority must consider whether:

(a)  the locality has high biological diversity, and

(b)  the locality contains:

(i)  a disjunct population of native species or a species that is near the limit of its geographic range, or

(ii)  riparian vegetation, or

(iii)  vegetation associated with wetlands, and

(c)  the land has connective importance as, or as part of, a corridor of bushland forming a connection that allows for the potential passage of species of flora or fauna between two or more areas of bushland, and

(iv)  landslip, or

(v)  deterioration in the quality of surface or ground water, or

(vi)  increased flooding, or

(h)  there is any need to conserve all or some of the bushland because:

(i)  of its unusually good condition or its significance as a sample of its type, or

(ii)  the development will increase the perimeter of the bushland, and so the ratio of the boundary to the area of the bushland, making it more vulnerable to negative impacts, or

(iii)  there is an archaeological site that has Aboriginal heritage significance on the land.

(5)  Consent must not be granted to development on land to which this clause applies for the purpose of gas drainage infrastructure required for underground coal mining unless:

(a)  the consent authority is satisfied, after consultation with the Department of Primary Industries, and taking into account the environmentally significant values of the land, that the location of the infrastructure is appropriate, and

2 Development control plan for the land

(1)  Consent must not be granted to a development application relating to the land to which this Schedule applies unless a development control plan for the land has been approved by the consent authority.

(2)  If the consent authority has not approved a development control plan for the land within 60 days after the date of publication in the Gazette of Wollondilly Local Environmental Plan 1991 (Amendment No 56), the consent authority must determine any development application made in respect of the land after the expiration of that period even though no development control plan has been approved by the consent authority.

3 Residential development

(1)  Consent must not be granted to a subdivision that creates an allotment if the consent authority is of the opinion that the allotment will be used for residential purposes unless the consent authority is satisfied that:

(a)  the allotment is capable of being serviced by a reticulated sewerage system that allows treated water to be supplied to residences for watering gardens and to any golf course within the land to which this Schedule applies for the purpose of its irrigation, and

(b)  the allotment will be supplied by an adequate water supply and serviced by an adequate reticulated sewerage system of the kind referred to in paragraph (a), and

(c)  if the allotment includes land the surface of which is or, after any proposed filling has been carried out, will be below the 1 percent annual event probability post-mining flood level, appropriate flood control measures can be taken or imposed to ensure that any residential building on the allotment will not be detrimentally affected by flooding.

(2)  Consent must not be granted to residential development:

(a)  on land the surface of which is or, or after any proposed filling has been carried out, will be below the 1 percent annual event probability post-mining flood level, or

(b)  if the floor level of any habitable part of a residential building resulting from the carrying out of the development will be less than the height above that flood level that is considered by the consent authority as adequate to avoid any adverse effect from flooding.

(3)  Consent must not be granted to a subdivision for the purpose of residential development in the vicinity of a sewage treatment plant unless the consent authority:

(a)  has considered an odour impact study:

(i)  that identifies the land potentially affected by offensive odour from the plant, and

(ii)  that is prepared in accordance with such relevant requirements of the consent authority, the Department of Environment and Conservation and Sydney Water Corporation, as have been notified to, and are available from, the council, and

(b)  is satisfied that the development will be located at an appropriate distance away from the plant and in accordance with any guidelines adopted by the consent authority for the location of dwelling-houses in proximity to sewage treatment plants.

(4)  Consent must not be granted to residential development unless the consent authority:

(a)  has considered the likely impact on the proposed development of authorised underground coal mining operations in the vicinity, and

(b)  has considered a report prepared by a suitably qualified and experienced coal geologist that examines the risk relating to geological anomaly within the coal resource under the land the subject of the proposed development, and

(c)  is satisfied, after consultation with the Department of Primary Industries, that the proposed development is not likely to unduly constrain underground coal mining.

(5)  Consent must not be granted to a subdivision for the purpose of residential development unless:

(a)  the consent authority has considered any guidelines adopted by the consent authority for the location of dwelling-houses in proximity to gas drainage boreholes (being guidelines prepared by the consent authority after consultation with the Department of Primary Industries, the Department of Planning and the Department of Environment and Conservation), and

(b)  the consent authority has considered, in consultation with the Department of Primary Industries, whether any exploration:

(i)  that is required in the vicinity in connection with authorised underground coal mining operations, and

(ii)  that the consent authority considers is likely to have an impact on or be impacted on, by the proposed development,

has been completed and, if not completed, the scheduled, and the likely, time for its completion, and

(c)  the consent authority has considered, in consultation with the Department of Primary Industries, whether the proposed development is likely to unduly constrain the continuation or expansion of authorised underground coal mining operations in the vicinity, and

(d)  the consent authority has identified, in consultation with the Department of Primary Industries, appropriate sites for air vent shafts and gas drainage boreholes, in connection with authorised underground coal mining operations, in approved locations on or in the vicinity of the land the subject of the proposed development.

(6)  Consent must not be granted to development for the purpose of gas drainage infrastructure required in connection with authorised underground coal mining operations unless the consent authority is satisfied:

(a)  that the infrastructure is or will be designed in accordance with industry best practice guidelines, where existing, and

(b)  the infrastructure will be located in an approved location.

4 Further restriction on subdivision for purpose of residential development

(1)  Consent must not be granted to a subdivision for the purpose of residential development that will create a lot with an area of less than 40 hectares unless:

(a)  the Director-General has certified in writing to the council that satisfactory arrangements have been made for contributions to the provision of regional transport infrastructure and services in relation to the land comprising that lot, and

(b)  the provisions of any agreement for those or any other contributions relating to the proposed development have been complied with.

(2)  The object of contributions referred to in subclause (1) (a) is to require assistance towards the provision of regional transport infrastructure and services to satisfy needs that will arise from intensive urban development of land to which this Schedule applies.

(3)  The reference in subclause (1) to a lot of less than 40 hectares does not include a reference to any such lot:

(a)  that is identified in the certificate of the Director-General as a residue lot, or

(b)  that is proposed in the development application to be reserved or dedicated for public open space, public roads, public utilities, educational facilities or any other public purpose.

(4)  This clause does not apply to a subdivision of land for the purpose of rectifying an encroachment on any existing allotment.

(5)  State Environmental Planning Policy No 1—Development Standards does not apply to development to which this clause applies.

(6)  This clause has effect despite any other provisions of this plan.

5 Development in vicinity of heritage items
