Part 3 Special provisions

10 General considerations for development within rural zones

(1)  The Council must not consent to development on land within Zone No 1 (a), 1 (c) or 1 (e) unless it has taken into consideration, if relevant, the effect of the carrying out of the proposed development on:

(a)  the present use of the land, the potential use of the land for the purpose of agriculture and the potential of any land which is prime crop and pasture land for sustained agricultural production, and

(b)  vegetation, timber production, land capability (including soil resources and soil stability) and water resources (including the quality and stability of water courses and ground water storage and riparian rights), and

(c)  the future recovery from known or prospective areas of valuable deposits of minerals, coal, petroleum, sand, gravel or other extractive minerals, and

(d)  the protection of areas of significance for nature conservation or of high scenic or recreational value, and items of archaeological or heritage significance, including Aboriginal relics and places, and

(e)  the cost of providing, extending and maintaining public amenities and services to the site of the proposed development, and

(f)  the future expansion of settlements in the locality.

(2)  As well as the matters referred to in subclause (1), the Council must take into consideration the relationship of the development to development on adjoining land and on other land in the locality.

(3)  Subclause (1) does not apply to development, being:

(a)  an addition to a building or work, or

(b)  development ancillary to a land use for the purpose of which development may be carried out without the consent of the Council, or

(c)  the erection of a dwelling-house on an allotment of land created for the purpose of a dwelling-house in accordance with this plan.

cl 10: Am 2007 (177), Sch 2 [8].

10A Exempt and complying development

(1)  Development of minimal environmental impact listed as exempt development in Part N of DCP 2001 is exempt development, despite any other provision of this plan.

(2)  Development listed as complying development in Part M of DCP 2001 is complying development if:

(a)  it is local development of a kind that can be carried out with consent on the land on which it is proposed, and

(b)  it is not an existing use, as defined in section 106 of the Act.

(3)  Development is exempt or complying development only if it complies with the development standards and other requirements applied to the development by Part M or N, as the case requires, of DCP 2001.

(4)  A complying development certificate issued for any complying development is to be subject to the conditions for the development specified in Part M of DCP 2001, as in force when the certificate is issued.

cl 11: Am 2007 (177), Sch 2 [10].

12 Subdivision for the purpose of agriculture in Zone No 1 (a) or 1 (c)

(a)  the allotment is being or will be used for a land use (other than agriculture, forestry or a dwelling-house) permitted on the land in that zone, and

(b)  the size of the proposed allotment and its future use will be consistent with the objectives of the zone, and

(c)  the level of demand for any goods or services that are to be supplied from the allotment, and for any activities that are to be carried out on the allotment, and the extent to which the allotment is proposed to be used to meet that demand, justify the creation of the allotment, and

(d)  the future use of the allotment will not result in land use conflict or degradation of natural resources, and

(e)  the creation of the allotment is unlikely to adversely affect the existing and potential capability of the adjoining and adjacent land to be used for other permissible land uses in that zone, and

(f)  the allotment to be created and any subsequent development on the allotment is unlikely to have the effect of creating a demand for uneconomic provision of services by the Council, and

(4)  The Council must not grant consent to a development application required by this clause until it has considered a conservation plan that assesses the impact of the proposal on the heritage significance of the item and its setting or of the heritage conservation area. A conservation plan is a document establishing the heritage significance of a heritage item or a heritage conservation area and identifying conservation policies and management mechanisms that are appropriate to enable that significance to be retained.

(5)  When considering applications for consent to the erection of a building within a heritage conservation area, the Council must make an assessment of:

(a)  the pitch and form of the roof, if any, and

(b)  the style, size, proportion and position of the openings for windows or doors, if any, and

(c)  whether the colour, texture, style, size and type of finish of the materials to be used on the exterior of the building are compatible with those of the materials used in existing buildings within the heritage conservation area.

Note—

The website of the Heritage Branch of the Department of Planning has publications that provide guidance on assessing the impact of proposed development on the heritage significance of items (for example, Statements of Heritage Impact).

35 Development of known or potential archaeological sites

(1)  The Council may grant consent to the carrying out of development on an archaeological site that has Aboriginal heritage significance (such as a site that is the location of an Aboriginal place or a relic, within the meaning of the National Parks and Wildlife Act 1974) or a potential archaeological site that is reasonably likely to have Aboriginal heritage significance only if:

(a)  it has considered an assessment of how the proposed development would affect the conservation of the site and any relic known or reasonably likely to be located at the site prepared in accordance with any guidelines for the time being notified to it by the Director-General of National Parks and Wildlife, and

(b)  except where the proposed development is integrated development, it has notified the local Aboriginal communities (in such a way as it thinks appropriate) of the development application and taken into consideration any comments received in response within 21 days after the notice was sent, and

cl 35: Am 2008 (571), Sch 3.132 [6] [7].

36 Development in the vicinity of heritage items, heritage conservation areas, archaeological sites or potential archaeological sites

The Council must take into consideration the likely effect of the proposed development on the heritage significance of a heritage item, heritage conservation area, archaeological site or potential archaeological site, and on its setting, when determining an application for consent to carry out development on land in its vicinity.

37 Conservation incentives

(1)  The Council may grant consent to the use, for any purpose, of a building that is a heritage item or is within a heritage conservation area, or of the land on which the building is erected, even though the use would otherwise be prohibited by this plan, if it is satisfied that:

(a)  the proposed use would not adversely affect the heritage significance of the item or heritage conservation area or the amenity of the heritage conservation area, and

(b)  the conservation of the building depends on the granting of the consent.

(2)  When considering an application for consent to erect a building on land on which a heritage item is located or on land within a heritage conservation area, the Council may, for the purpose of determining:

cl 41: Subst 2006 (289), Sch 1.9 [2]. Am 2011 (28), Sch 1.4 [2].

42 Development within water catchment areas (including the Sydney drinking water catchment)

If a development application is received for land considered by the Council to be within a water catchment area, including the Sydney drinking water catchment, the Council must not grant consent unless it has considered the impact of the proposed development on the ecological integrity of the water catchment area.
