the site as it would provide a sense of
solidity to strengthen the corner of the
existing building fabric. Draft LEP
proposed height control of 21.5m
equates to 6 storeys – this is
inconsistent with the most recent
recommended heights for the land of 9
storeys. DLEP recommends a FSR for
MEA – these have not been subject to
any comprehensive study. The
proposed FSRs are based on an
approximated Precinct – wide FSR
approach – this level of testing is
considered to be too basic. The site is
located within the Station Precinct which
is comprised of small sites with little
opportunity for amalgamation. A
precinct wide FSR with low building
heights will not encourage future
development of smaller sites

storeys) and no FSR control. Under
DLEP 2011 the maximum permitted

Heights and FSRs for all of
Meadowbank were reviewed in
Ryde Local Planning Study 2010 -
Centres and Corridors that was
adopted by Council on 7 December
2010.
When considering the Ryde Local
Planning Study, Council directed
that the LEP building heights in
Shepherd’s Bay should
accommodate 6 storeys maximum.
The council adopted Local Planning
Study formed the basis of DLEP
2011.
