2.2 Zoning of land to which Plan applies
For the purposes of this Plan, land is within the zones shown on the Land Zoning Map.
2.3 Zone objectives and Land Use Table
(1) The Land Use Table at the end of this Part specifies for each zone—(a) the objectives for development, and(b) development that may be carried out without development consent, and(c) development that may be carried out only with development consent, and(d) development that is prohibited.(2) The consent authority must have regard to the objectives for development in a zone when determining a development application in respect of land within the zone.(3) In the Land Use Table at the end of this Part—(a) a reference to a type of building or other thing is a reference to development for the purposes of that type of building or other thing, and(b) a reference to a type of building or other thing does not include (despite any definition in this Plan) a reference to a type of building or other thing referred to separately in the Land Use Table in relation to the same zone.(4) This clause is subject to the other provisions of this Plan.Notes—1Schedule 1 sets out additional permitted uses for particular land.2Schedule 2 sets out exempt development (which is generally exempt from both Parts 4 and 5 of the Act). Development in the land use table that may be carried out without consent is nevertheless subject to the environmental assessment and approval requirements of Part 5 of the Act.3Schedule 3 sets out complying development (for which a complying development certificate may be issued as an alternative to obtaining development consent).4Clause 2.6 requires consent for subdivision of land.5Part 5 contains other provisions which require consent for particular development.
2.4 Unzoned land
(1) Development may be carried out on unzoned land only with development consent.(2) In deciding whether to grant development consent, the consent authority—(a) must consider whether the development will impact on adjoining zoned land and, if so, consider the objectives for development in the zones of the adjoining land, and(b) must be satisfied that the development is appropriate and is compatible with permissible land uses in any such adjoining land.
2.5 Additional permitted uses for particular land
(1) Development on particular land that is described or referred to in Schedule 1 may be carried out—(a) with development consent, orin accordance with the conditions (if any) specified in that Schedule in relation to that development.(b) if the Schedule so provides—without development consent,(2) This clause has effect despite anything to the contrary in the Land Use Table or other provision of this Plan.
2.6 Subdivision—consent requirements
(1) Land to which this Plan applies may be subdivided, but only with development consent.Notes—1If a subdivision is specified as exempt development in an applicable environmental planning instrument, such as this Plan or State Environmental Planning Policy (Exempt and Complying Development Codes) 2008, the Act enables it to be carried out without development consent.2Part 6 of State Environmental Planning Policy (Exempt and Complying Development Codes) 2008 provides that the strata subdivision of a building in certain circumstances is complying development.(2) Development consent must not be granted for the subdivision of land on which a secondary dwelling is situated if the subdivision would result in the principal dwelling and the secondary dwelling being situated on separate lots, unless the resulting lots are not less than the minimum size shown on the Lot Size Map in relation to that land.Note—The definition of secondary dwelling in the Dictionary requires the dwelling to be on the same lot of land as the principal dwelling.
2.7 Demolition requires development consent
The demolition of a building or work may be carried out only with development consent.Note—If the demolition of a building or work is identified in an applicable environmental planning instrument, such as this Plan or State Environmental Planning Policy (Exempt and Complying Development Codes) 2008, as exempt development, the Act enables it to be carried out without development consent.
2.8 Temporary use of land
(1) The objective of this clause is to provide for the temporary use of land if the use does not compromise future development of the land, or have detrimental economic, social, amenity or environmental effects on the land.(2) Despite any other provision of this Plan, development consent may be granted for development on land in any zone for a temporary use for a maximum period of 52 days (whether or not consecutive days) in any period of 12 months.(3) Development consent must not be granted unless the consent authority is satisfied that—(a) the temporary use will not prejudice the subsequent carrying out of development on the land in accordance with this Plan and any other applicable environmental planning instrument, and(b) the temporary use will not adversely impact on any adjoining land or the amenity of the neighbourhood, and(c) the temporary use and location of any structures related to the use will not adversely impact on environmental attributes or features of the land, or increase the risk of natural hazards that may affect the land, and(d) at the end of the temporary use period the land will, as far as is practicable, be restored to the condition in which it was before the commencement of the use.(4) Despite subclause (2), the temporary use of a dwelling as a sales office for a new release area or a new housing estate may exceed the maximum number of days specified in that subclause.(5) Subclause (3)(d) does not apply to the temporary use of a dwelling as a sales office mentioned in subclause (4).
2.9 Canal estate development prohibited
(1) Canal estate development is prohibited on land to which this Plan applies.(2) In this Plan, canal estate development means development that involves—(a) a constructed canal, or other waterway or waterbody, that—(i) is inundated by surface water or groundwater movement, or(ii) drains to a waterway or waterbody by surface water or groundwater movement, and(b) the erection of a dwelling, and(c) one or both of the following—(i) the use of fill material to raise the level of all or part of the land on which the dwelling will be erected to comply with requirements for residential development in the flood planning area,(ii) excavation to create a waterway.(3) Canal estate development does not include development for the purposes of drainage or the supply or treatment of water if the development is—(a) carried out by or with the authority of a person or body responsible for the drainage, supply or treatment, and(b) limited to the minimum reasonable size and capacity.(4) In this clause—flood planning area has the same meaning as in clause 5.21.

Part 4 Principal development standards
4.1 Minimum subdivision lot size
[Not adopted]
4.2 Rural subdivision
[Not applicable]
4.3 Height of buildings
(1) The objectives of this clause are as follows—(a) to ensure the height of development is appropriate to the condition of the site and its context,(b) to ensure appropriate height transitions between new development and heritage items and buildings in heritage conservation areas or special character areas,(c) to promote the sharing of views outside Central Sydney,(d) to ensure appropriate height transitions from Central Sydney and Green Square Town Centre to adjoining areas,(e) in respect of Green Square—(i) to ensure the amenity of the public domain by restricting taller buildings to only part of a site, and(ii) to ensure the built form contributes to the physical definition of the street network and public spaces.(2) The height of a building on any land is not to exceed the maximum height shown for the land on the Height of Buildings Map.Note—No maximum height is shown for land in Area 3 on the Height of Buildings Map. The maximum height for buildings on this land are determined by the sun access planes that are taken to extend over the land by clause 6.17.(2A) Despite any other provision of this Plan, the maximum height of a building on land shown as Area 1 or Area 2 on the Height of Buildings Map is the height of the building on the land as at the commencement of this Plan.cl 4.3: Am 2021 (717), Sch 1[4].
4.4 Floor space ratio
(1) The objectives of this clause are as follows—(a) to provide sufficient floor space to meet anticipated development needs for the foreseeable future,(b) to regulate the density of development, built form and land use intensity and to control the generation of vehicle and pedestrian traffic,(c) to provide for an intensity of development that is commensurate with the capacity of existing and planned infrastructure,(d) to ensure that new development reflects the desired character of the locality in which it is located and minimises adverse impacts on the amenity of that locality.(2) The maximum floor space ratio for a building on any land is not to exceed the floor space ratio shown for the land on the Floor Space Ratio Map.
4.5 Calculation of floor space ratio and site area
(1) Objectives The objectives of this clause are as follows—(a) to define floor space ratio,(b) to set out rules for the calculation of the site area of development for the purpose of applying permitted floor space ratios, including rules to—(i) prevent the inclusion in the site area of an area that has no significant development being carried out on it, and(ii) prevent the inclusion in the site area of an area that has already been included as part of a site area to maximise floor space area in another building, and(iii) require community land and public places to be dealt with separately.(2) Definition of “floor space ratio” The floor space ratio of buildings on a site is the ratio of the gross floor area of all buildings within the site to the site area.(3) Site area In determining the site area of proposed development for the purpose of applying a floor space ratio, the site area is taken to be—(a) if the proposed development is to be carried out on only one lot, the area of that lot, or(b) if the proposed development is to be carried out on 2 or more lots, the area of any lot on which the development is proposed to be carried out that has at least one common boundary with another lot on which the development is being carried out.In addition, subclauses (4)–(7) apply to the calculation of site area for the purposes of applying a floor space ratio to proposed development.(4) Exclusions from site area The following land must be excluded from the site area—(a) land on which the proposed development is prohibited, whether under this Plan or any other law,(b) community land or a public place (except as provided by subclause (7)).(5) Strata subdivisions The area of a lot that is wholly or partly on top of another or others in a strata subdivision is to be included in the calculation of the site area only to the extent that it does not overlap with another lot already included in the site area calculation.(6) Only significant development to be included The site area for proposed development must not include a lot additional to a lot or lots on which the development is being carried out unless the proposed development includes significant development on that additional lot.(7) Certain public land to be separately considered For the purpose of applying a floor space ratio to any proposed development on, above or below community land or a public place, the site area must only include an area that is on, above or below that community land or public place, and is occupied or physically affected by the proposed development, and may not include any other area on which the proposed development is to be carried out.(8) Existing buildings The gross floor area of any existing or proposed buildings within the vertical projection (above or below ground) of the boundaries of a site is to be included in the calculation of the total floor space for the purposes of applying a floor space ratio, whether or not the proposed development relates to all of the buildings.(9) Covenants to prevent “double dipping” When development consent is granted to development on a site comprised of 2 or more lots, a condition of the consent may require a covenant to be registered that prevents the creation of floor area on a lot (the restricted lot) if the consent authority is satisfied that an equivalent quantity of floor area will be created on another lot only because the site included the restricted lot.(10) Covenants affect consolidated sites If—(a) a covenant of the kind referred to in subclause (9) applies to any land (affected land), andthe maximum amount of floor area allowed on the other land by the floor space ratio fixed for the site by this Plan is reduced by the quantity of floor space area the covenant prevents being created on the affected land.(b) proposed development relates to the affected land and other land that together comprise the site of the proposed development,(11) Definition In this clause, public place has the same meaning as it has in the Local Government Act 1993.
4.5A Balconies on certain residential flat buildings
(1) The consent authority may exclude the gross floor area of any existing or proposed wind-affected balcony from the calculation of the total floor space for the purposes of applying a floor space ratio if the consent authority is satisfied of the following—(a) the excluded balcony gross floor area does not exceed 15% of the gross floor area of the apartment to which the balcony is attached,(b) the wind-affected balcony is used, or designed to be used, as external open space,(c) the wind-affected balcony has sufficient natural ventilation,(d) the partial enclosure of the wind-affected balcony does not increase the apparent bulk of the building.(2) For the purposes of this clause, wind-affected balcony means a balcony that is—(a) part of a residential flat building that is over 30 metres high, and(b) above the level of any podium that is, or is required to be, part of the construction of the residential flat building, and(c) partially enclosed.cl 4.5A: Ins 2016 (226), Sch 1 [1].
4.6 Exceptions to development standards
(1) The objectives of this clause are as follows—(a) to provide an appropriate degree of flexibility in applying certain development standards to particular development,(b) to achieve better outcomes for and from development by allowing flexibility in particular circumstances.(2) Development consent may, subject to this clause, be granted for development even though the development would contravene a development standard imposed by this or any other environmental planning instrument. However, this clause does not apply to a development standard that is expressly excluded from the operation of this clause.(3) Development consent must not be granted to development that contravenes a development standard unless the consent authority is satisfied the applicant has demonstrated that—(a) compliance with the development standard is unreasonable or unnecessary in the circumstances, and(b) there are sufficient environmental planning grounds to justify the contravention of the development standard.Note—The Environmental Planning and Assessment Regulation 2021 requires a development application for development that proposes to contravene a development standard to be accompanied by a document setting out the grounds on which the applicant seeks to demonstrate the matters in paragraphs (a) and (b).(4) The consent authority must keep a record of its assessment carried out under subclause (3).(5) (Repealed)(6) Development consent must not be granted under this clause for a subdivision of land in Zone RU1 Primary Production, Zone RU2 Rural Landscape, Zone RU3 Forestry, Zone RU4 Primary Production Small Lots, Zone RU6 Transition, Zone R5 Large Lot Residential, Zone C2 Environmental Conservation, Zone C3 Environmental Management or Zone C4 Environmental Living if—(a) the subdivision will result in 2 or more lots of less than the minimum area specified for such lots by a development standard, or(b) the subdivision will result in at least one lot that is less than 90% of the minimum area specified for such a lot by a development standard.(7) (Repealed)(8) This clause does not allow development consent to be granted for development that would contravene any of the following—(a) a development standard for complying development,(b) a development standard that arises, under the regulations under the Act, in connection with a commitment set out in a BASIX certificate for a building to which State Environmental Planning Policy (Building Sustainability Index: BASIX) 2004 applies or for the land on which such a building is situated,(c) clause 5.4,(caa) clause 5.5,(ca) clause 4.3 (Height of buildings), but only in relation to land shown as being in Area 1 or Area 2 on the Height of Buildings Map,(cab) clause 4.5A (Balconies on certain residential flat buildings),(cb) clause 5.3A (Development below ground level in Zone RE1),(cc) clause 6.10 (Heritage floor space),(cd) clause 6.11 (Utilisation of certain additional floor space requires allocation of heritage floor space),(cda) clause 6.11A (Temporary alternative heritage arrangements in relation to allocation of heritage floor space),(cdb) clause 6.16 (Erection of tall buildings in Central Sydney),(ce) clause 6.17 (Sun access planes),(cf) clause 6.18 (Overshadowing of certain public places), unless the additional overshadowing is caused by playground equipment, a shade structure, an awning, a sculpture or artwork, a community notice or a public information sign,(cg) clause 6.19 (View planes), except in relation to the Martin Place View of western sky view protection plane,(cga) clause 6.26 (AMP Circular Quay precinct),(cgb) clause 6.29 (58–60 Martin Place, Sydney),(cgc) clause 6.33 (230–238 Sussex Street, Sydney),(cgd) clause 6.35 (45 Murray Street, Pyrmont), but only if the development is an alteration or addition to an existing building,(cge) clause 6.36 (12–20 Rosebery Avenue, 22–40 Rosebery Avenue and 108 Dalmeny Avenue, Rosebery),(cgf) clause 6.37 (296–298 Botany Road and 284 Wyndham Street, Alexandria),(cgg) clause 6.41 (7–15 Randle Street, Surry Hills),(cgh) clause 6.42 (102–106 Dunning Avenue, Rosebery),(cgi) clause 6.40 (2–32 Junction Street, Forest Lodge),(cgj) clause 6.43 (Danks Street South Precinct),(cgk) clause 6.52 (1–11 Oxford Street, Paddington),(cgl) clause 6.55—4–22 Wentworth Avenue, Surry Hills,(cgm) clause 6.56—24–40 Wentworth Avenue, Surry Hills,(cgn) clause 6.58—187–189 Thomas Street, Haymarket,(ch) Division 1 of Part 7 (Car parking ancillary to other development),(ci) clause 6.19A (Views of Sydney Harbour),(cj) clause 6.21E(2) and (5) (Tower cluster areas),(ck) clause 6.60C—2 Chifley Square, Sydney,(cl) clause 6.60D—Oxford Street Cultural and Creative Precinct,(cm) clause 6.60E—Flinders Street and Oxford Street,(cn) clause 6.60G—15–23 Hunter Street and 103–107 Pitt Street, Sydney,(co) clause 6.60H—Hunter Street Metro Station,(cp) clause 6.60I—85–93 Commonwealth Street, Surry Hills.cl 4.6: Am 2014 (366), Sch 1 [1]; 2015 (486), Sch 1 [1]; 2016 (164), Sch 1 [1]; 2016 (226), Sch 1 [2]; 2016 (443), Sch 1 [1]; 2016 (761), Sch 1 [1]; 2017 (47), Sch 1 [1]; 2017 (750), Sch 1 [1]; 2018 (296), cl 4; 2018 (575), Sch 1 [1]; 2019 (14), Sch 1 [1]; 2019 (146), Sch 1 [1]; 2019 (461), Sch 1 [1] [2]; 2020 (463), Sch 1[1]; 2021 (355), Sch 1[1]; 2021 (535), Sch 1[1]; 2021 (717), Sch 1[5]–[7]; 2022 (723), Sch 1[1]; 2022 (743), Sch 1[1]; 2022 (857), Sch 1.7[5]; 2023 (312), Sch 1[1]; 2023 (660), Sch 1[1]; 2024 (19), Sch 1[1].
Part 5 Miscellaneous provisions
5.1 Relevant acquisition authority
(1) The objective of this clause is to identify, for the purposes of section 3.15 of the Act, the authority of the State that will be the relevant authority to acquire land reserved for certain public purposes if the land is required to be acquired under Division 3 of Part 2 of the Land Acquisition (Just Terms Compensation) Act 1991 (the owner-initiated acquisition provisions).Note—If the landholder will suffer hardship if there is any delay in the land being acquired by the relevant authority, section 23 of the Land Acquisition (Just Terms Compensation) Act 1991 requires the authority to acquire the land.(2) The authority of the State that will be the relevant authority to acquire land, if the land is required to be acquired under the owner-initiated acquisition provisions, is the authority of the State specified below in relation to the land shown on the Land Reservation Acquisition Map (or, if an authority of the State is not specified in relation to land required to be so acquired, the authority designated or determined under those provisions).

5.2 Classification and reclassification of public land
(1) The objective of this clause is to enable the Council to classify or reclassify public land as “operational land” or “community land” in accordance with Part 2 of Chapter 6 of the Local Government Act 1993.Note—Under the Local Government Act 1993, “public land” is generally land vested in or under the control of a council (other than roads and certain Crown land). The classification or reclassification of public land may also be made by a resolution of the Council under section 31, 32 or 33 of the Local Government Act 1993. Section 30 of that Act enables this Plan to discharge trusts on which public reserves are held if the land is reclassified under this Plan as operational land.(2) The public land described in Part 1 or Part 2 of Schedule 4 is classified, or reclassified, as operational land for the purposes of the Local Government Act 1993.(3) The public land described in Part 3 of Schedule 4 is classified, or reclassified, as community land for the purposes of the Local Government Act 1993.(4) The public land described in Part 1 of Schedule 4—(a) does not cease to be a public reserve to the extent (if any) that it is a public reserve, and(b) continues to be affected by any trusts, estates, interests, dedications, conditions, restrictions or covenants that affected the land before its classification, or reclassification, as operational land.(5) The public land described in Part 2 of Schedule 4, to the extent (if any) that it is a public reserve, ceases to be a public reserve when the description of the land is inserted into that Part and is discharged from all trusts, estates, interests, dedications, conditions, restrictions and covenants affecting the land or any part of the land, except—(a) those (if any) specified for the land in Column 3 of Part 2 of Schedule 4, and(b) any reservations that except land out of the Crown grant relating to the land, and(c) reservations of minerals (within the meaning of the Crown Land Management Act 2016).Note—In accordance with section 30(2) of the Local Government Act 1993, the approval of the Governor to subclause (5) applying to the public land concerned is required before the description of the land is inserted in Part 2 of Schedule 4.
5.3 Development near zone boundaries
(1) The objective of this clause is to provide flexibility where the investigation of a site and its surroundings reveals that a use allowed on the other side of a zone boundary would enable a more logical and appropriate development of the site and be compatible with the planning objectives and land uses for the adjoining zone.(2) This clause applies to so much of any land that is within the relevant distance of a boundary between any 2 zones. The relevant distance is 6 metres from any land in Zone SP1 Special Activities or Zone SP2 Infrastructure.(3) This clause does not apply to—(a) land in Zone RE1 Public Recreation, Zone C1 National Parks and Nature Reserves, Zone C2 Environmental Conservation, Zone C3 Environmental Management or Zone W1 Natural Waterways, or(b) land within the coastal zone, or(c) land proposed to be developed for the purpose of sex services or restricted premises.(4) Despite the provisions of this Plan relating to the purposes for which development may be carried out, development consent may be granted to development of land to which this clause applies for any purpose that may be carried out in the adjoining zone, but only if the consent authority is satisfied that—(a) the development is not inconsistent with the objectives for development in both zones, and(b) the carrying out of the development is desirable due to compatible land use planning, infrastructure capacity and other planning principles relating to the efficient and timely development of land.(5) This clause does not prescribe a development standard that may be varied under this Plan.cl 5.3: Am 2022 (857), Sch 1.7[5].
5.3A Development below ground level in Zone RE1
(1) This clause applies to development—(a) that is entirely below ground level (existing) on land in Zone RE1 Public Recreation (the Public Recreation Zone), and(b) that is for a purpose that may be carried out in a zone that adjoins the Public Recreation Zone.(2) Despite any other provision of this Plan relating to the purposes for which development may be carried out, development consent may be granted to development to which this clause applies if the consent authority is satisfied that—(a) the carrying out of the development is desirable due to compatible land use planning, infrastructure capacity and other planning principles relating to the efficient and timely development of land, and(b) the development will not have any significant adverse effects on the environment and will not prevent any land within the Public Recreation Zone being used for recreational purposes.
5.4 Controls relating to miscellaneous permissible uses
(1) Bed and breakfast accommodation If development for the purposes of bed and breakfast accommodation is permitted under this Plan, the accommodation that is provided to guests must consist of no more than 3 bedrooms.Note—Any such development that provides for a certain number of guests or rooms may involve a change in the class of building under the Building Code of Australia.(2) Home businesses If development for the purposes of a home business is permitted under this Plan, the carrying on of the business must not involve the use of more than 45 square metres of floor area.(3) Home industries If development for the purposes of a home industry is permitted under this Plan, the carrying on of the home industry must not involve the use of more than 45 square metres of floor area.(4) Industrial retail outlets If development for the purposes of an industrial retail outlet is permitted under this Plan, the retail floor area must not exceed—(a) 20% of the gross floor area of the industry or rural industry located on the same land as the retail outlet, orwhichever is the lesser.(b) 400 square metres,(5) Farm stay accommodation If development for the purposes of farm stay accommodation is permitted under this Plan, the accommodation that is provided to guests must consist of no more than 3 bedrooms in buildings.(6) Kiosks If development for the purposes of a kiosk is permitted under this Plan, the gross floor area must not exceed 20 square metres.(7) Neighbourhood shops If development for the purposes of a neighbourhood shop is permitted under this Plan, the retail floor area must not exceed 80 square metres.(7AA) Neighbourhood supermarkets If development for the purposes of a neighbourhood supermarket is permitted under this Plan, the gross floor area must not exceed 1,000 square metres.(8) Roadside stalls If development for the purposes of a roadside stall is permitted under this Plan, the gross floor area must not exceed 9 square metres.(9) Secondary dwellings on land other than land in a rural zone If development for the purposes of a secondary dwelling is permitted under this Plan on land other than land in a rural zone, the total floor area of the dwelling, excluding any area used for parking, must not exceed whichever of the following is the greater—(a) 60 square metres,(b) 30% of the total floor area of the principal dwelling.(10) Artisan food and drink industry exclusion If development for the purposes of an artisan food and drink industry is permitted under this Plan in Zone E3 Productivity Support, Zone E4 General Industrial, Zone E5 Heavy Industrial, Zone W4 Working Waterfront or a rural zone, the floor area used for retail sales (not including any cafe or restaurant area) must not exceed—(a) 20% of the gross floor area of the industry, orwhichever is the lesser.(b) 400 square metres,cl 5.4: Am 2018 (406), Sch 1.127 [1] [2]; 2023 (458), Sch 1[1].

Part 7 Local provisions—general
Division 1 Car parking ancillary to other development
7.1 Objectives and application of Division
(1) The objectives of this Division are—(a) to identify the maximum number of car parking spaces that may be provided to service particular uses of land, and(b) to minimise the amount of vehicular traffic generated because of proposed development.(2) This Division applies to development for any purpose if car parking spaces are to be provided in relation to that purpose but not if the development is for the purpose of a car park.(3) Nothing in this Division requires a reduction in the number of car parking spaces in an existing building.
7.2 Interpretation
