amenity of residents. The street which currently receives through traffic cannot
take 2 way traffic will on street parking. Permitting develop that will increase
traffic flow with adversely affect safety of street. Rezoning is inconsistent with
aims of LEP.
Response
The Local Planning Study that was adopted by Council on the 7 December
2010 recommended that the subject property be rezoned B4 with a FSR of
1.5:1 and a height of 3 storeys.
Ryde LEP (Gladesville Town Centre and Victoria Rd Corridor) 2010 was
gazetted in 2011.A number of properties on the periphery of the LEP boundary
were not included in the LEP because of timing and technical issues. In the
Centres and Corridors Study it was considered appropriate those properties
e.g. 14 – 28 Oxford St should now be included in the Gladesville Town Centre
with zoning and development controls similar to the surrounding land in the
Centre.
Any DA for the subject land would require notification of adjoining owners and
traffic and amenity issues would be considered on an individual basis.
No amendment to the DLEP required.
Issue 4 – 44 - 46 – 48 Eltham Street and 2a and 2b Westminster
The submissions request that 2a and 2b Westminster be rezoned from B6 to B4 and
44 – 48 Eltham be rezoned from R2 to B4 as retaining the existing zoning will result
in undue conflict particularly with regard to residences.
The rezoning of corner to B4 would be in line with zoning along Monash Rd and
adjacent corner.
The submissions also request an increase in the FSRs and heights for the site
Response
The planning provisions for Gladesville Town Centre and Victoria Road Corridor
were reviewed as part of the Local Planning Study. Expansion of the B4/B6 zone
into Eltham St was not considered as part of the study due to the residential
nature of the street and the approach that the non residential use be contained to
Victoria Rd.
The B6 zoning applying to 2a & 2b Westminster is considered appropriate and is
to be retained.
No amendment to the DLEP required.
Issue 5 (Pro forma letters 71)
DLEP 2011 does not meet the community interest in Gladesville in particular
increased height limits along Victoria Rd and surrounding residential streets e.g.
Farm St and Gladesville & Victoria Rd precinct.
New heights of 6 and 8 storeys along Victoria Rd and 4 storeys in Farm St will have
adverse impact on local community due to noise, traffic, road safety, and loss of
privacy, increased pressure on amenities and public transport and loss of sunlight.
