Report prepared by: Strategic Planner
Report dated: 28/05/2012 File No.: LEP2008/22/007 - BP12/643
REPORT SUMMARY
This report provides information on the exhibition of draft Ryde Local Environmental
Plan (LEP) 2011 and on the outcomes of that community consultation process.
A total of 3 259 submissions were received during the exhibition of draft LEP under
both ‘Community Comment’ which occurred from the 19 January 2011 to the 29 May
2012 and the formal exhibition of the Plan under the Environmental Planning and
Assessment Act 1979 from the 30 May to the 13 July 2012.
The principal issues raised in submissions were;
Requests for increased floor space and height provisions for certain sites
within Centres and local business zones.
Deleting Clause 4.1C (d) (b) which requires a minimum road frontage of 20m
for dual occupancy and multi dwelling housing developments.
Requests from State authorities that land zoned SP2 which is surplus to their
needs be rezoned to an adjoining zoning.
Concern over the viability of the IN2 zone and inclusion of additional land uses
“permitted with consent”.
Retention of all open space land
Objection to blanket prohibitions that exist within DLEP which fail to recognise
“advertising signage” as a legitimate land use activity.
A summary of points raised in submissions, Council’s response to those points and
proposed actions are presented in Table 1 – Community Consultation Submissions
and Table 2 – Formal Exhibition Submissions.
It is proposed to amend the draft LEP to address a number of the issues raised in
submissions, the principal changes include:
1. Wholesale supplies, Building identification signs and Recreation facility
(indoor) being added to uses permitted in the IN2 Light Industrial.
2. Home business and Home industries being added as a permitted use in the
R2, R3 and R4 zones.
3. Land Reservation Acquisition Map being amended in line with requested RTA
boundary changes.
Further amendments to the draft Plan are also proposed to bring the plan in line with
changes in supporting documents such as the Draft DCP 2011 and to correct
identified omissions and errors. All such changes are identified in TABLE 3 –
Amendments to DLEP 2011.
The report recommends that Council amends the draft Plan in accordance with Table
3 and that the plan be forwarded to the Department of Planning and Infrastructure
(DoPI) with a Section 68 report requesting that the Minister make the Plan.
