(f)  erecting a building on, or subdividing, land on which a heritage item is located or which is within a heritage conservation area.
(2) What exceptions are there? Development consent is not required by this clause if:
(a)  in the opinion of the consent authority:
(i)  the proposed development is of a minor nature or consists of maintenance of the heritage item or of a building, work, archaeological site, tree or place within a heritage conservation area, and
(ii)  the proposed development would not adversely affect the significance of the heritage item or heritage conservation area, and

(5) What extra documentation is needed? The assessment must include consideration of a heritage impact statement that addresses at least the following issues (but is not to be limited to assessment of those issues, if the heritage significance concerned involves other issues). The consent authority may also decline to grant such a consent until it has considered a conservation management plan, if it considers the proposed development should be assessed with regard to such a plan.
(6) The minimum number of issues that must be addressed by the heritage impact statement are:
(a)  for development that would affect a heritage item:
(i)  the heritage significance of the item as part of the environmental heritage of the City of Lismore, and
(ii)  the impact that the proposed development will have on the heritage significance of the item and its setting, including any landscape or horticultural features, and
(iii)  the measures proposed to conserve the heritage significance of the item and its setting, and
(iv)  whether any archaeological site or potential archaeological site would be adversely affected by the proposed development, and
(v)  the extent to which the carrying out of the proposed development would affect the form of any historic subdivision, and
(b)  for development that would be carried out in a heritage conservation area:
(i)  the heritage significance of the heritage conservation area and the contribution which any building, work, relic, tree or place affected by the proposed development makes to this heritage significance, and
(ii)  the impact that the proposed development would have on the heritage significance of the heritage conservation area, and
(iii)  the compatibility of the proposed development with nearby original buildings and the character of the heritage conservation area, taking into account the size, form, scale, orientation, setbacks, materials and detailing of the proposed development, and
(iv)  the measures proposed to conserve the significance of the heritage conservation area and its setting, and
(v)  whether any landscape or horticultural features would be affected by the proposed development, and
(vi)  whether any archaeological site or potential archaeological site would be affected by the proposed development, and
(vii)  the extent to which the carrying out of the proposed development in accordance with the consent would affect any historic subdivision pattern, and

(a)  the need for the floor level of the development to be at or above the flood planning level,
(b)  the degree of flood-proofing and the need for flood-free storage,
(c)  the need for access to the development when the land is flooded,
(d)  the cumulative effect of carrying out the development on the functioning of the floodway,

(2) Despite the provisions of Part 3, the consent authority must not grant consent to the erection of a building on land shown as floodway on Map 1 of the Lismore Floodplain Management Plan unless:
(a)  the building is for the purpose of providing utility installations or community facilities, or
(b)  the building is located within 10 metres of the boundary of the floodway and a hydraulic study has been carried out for the site which shows, to the consent authority’s satisfaction, that the flood impact of the development (including any associated works) will not adversely affect the flood behaviour of, or increase the flooding impacts on, any other land, or
(c)  the building is located within the general aviation area of Lismore Regional Airport, as indicated on the map marked “Lismore Regional Airport” in the Lismore Regional Airport Business Strategy Plan dated June 2002, and the development is consistent with that Plan and maintains the cross sectional integrity of the floodway, or
(d)  the building is located on an allotment forming part of the concept plan for the airport industrial estate, as indicated on Map 2 (Concept for Development of Airport Land) of the Lismore Floodplain Management Plan.
(2A) Despite the provisions of Part 3, the consent authority must not grant consent to an alteration to an existing building on land shown as floodway on Map 1 of the Lismore Floodplain Management Plan unless all of the following are satisfied:
(a)  the alteration will not result in the creation of any new dwelling,
(b)  there is no expansion of the building footprint,
(c)  all building work that is not internal is above the flood standard,
(d)  any new materials at or below the flood standard in internal work are flood compatible,

(3) Despite the provisions of Part 3, the consent authority must not grant consent to development for the purpose of a dwelling or a caravan park on land shown as high flood risk area on Map 1 of the Lismore Floodplain Management Plan unless the consent authority:
(a)  has considered a flood report prepared by a suitably qualified consultant which provides site specific detail relating to the predicted depths and velocities of the 1 in 100 year average recurrent interval (ARI) flood, and
(b)  is satisfied that the flooding characteristics of the site indicated by the flood report are less hazardous than the criteria for flood depth and velocity adopted for the high flood risk area in the Lismore Floodplain Management Plan.
(4) Despite the provisions of Part 3, a person must not carry out filling on land shown as floodway, high flood risk area, flood fringe area or CBD flood liable on Map 1 (Lismore Flood Hazard Categories) of the Lismore Floodplain Management Plan except with development consent.
(5) In this clause:
average recurrence interval (ARI) means the average period between the recurrence of a storm event of a given rainfall intensity. The ARI represents a statistical probability.
flood planning level means the level equivalent to the 1 in 100 year ARI flood level plus freeboard of 300 millimetres. (The 1 in 100 year ARI flood levels for the Lismore urban area are shown on Map 2 of Development Control Plan No 7—Flood Prone Lands dated November 2003. The freeboard adopted by that Plan is 300 millimetres. So the flood planning level may be calculated by adding 300 millimetres to the 1 in 100 year ARI flood level for the relevant area shown on Map 2 of that Plan.)
Lismore Floodplain Management Plan means the Lismore Floodplain Management Plan dated October 2002, deposited in the office of the Council.
