Consultation has concluded

Council resolved to place on public exhibition draft amendments to BSDCP2012.

The main amendments are:

  • Chapter 3 – Amendments to the Ballina Heights Structure Plan in response to a landowner request to remove the area previously designated for a retirement village, to be replaced by standard residential lots.
  • Chapter 4 – Additions to Section 3.1.3, clarifying that in relation to measurement of building lines on properties adjacent to a foreshore/waterway feature or asset, the building line is measured from the lot boundary fronting that feature or asset.
  • Amendment to the Fig Tree Hill Neighbourhood Map to include lots fronting Coopers Close and to notes in Chapter 2 (Section 3.11.3) and Chapter 7 (Section 4.2) to advise that dual occupancy development is not supported in the mapped area due to insufficient sewerage capacity.
  • Chapter 7 – Addition of a new section on agritourism, addressing the recent State Government legislative amendments which facilitate farm stay accommodation, farm experience premises, and farm gate activities in all rural zones throughout the State.
  • Various chapters – update references to business and industrial zones and environmental protection zones to reflect the State Government ‘Employment Zones’ reform, and the renaming of ‘Environmental’ zones to ‘Conservation’ zones.
