Following is adot point summary of the main changes in each part:Proposed Amendments to Part 1: PreliminaryAn updated explanation of the Planning Process.Inclusions of a number of new definitions in the dictionary to provide clarity.Proposed Amendments to Part 2: Requirements Applying to all Types of DevelopmentIntroduction of a new section being Section 2.4.3 Light Pollution, that encouragesnew developments to be designed to minimise light pollution from the unnecessarydispersion of light into the sky and neighbouring residential properties;Introduction of a new section being Section 2.16 Provision of Services, that providesdevelopment controls in relation to the provision of services such as water, electricityand sewage treatments, in particular, where developments are proposed within nonurban lands and such services are not provided; andIntroduction of a new section being Section 2.17 Work on, near or over public land,to ensure the protection of public safety, wellbeing and health and protect Council’sassets from being damaged as a result of construction works on or near public lands.Proposed Amendments to Part 3: Dwelling Houses, Narrow Lot Dwellings, Multi DwellingHousing, and Subdivision A new requirement is proposed that all garages be setback by 500mm behind the mainbuilding line fronting the primary street boundary. This requirement is in addition to thecurrent clause that requires garages to be setback by at least 5.5 metres from theprimary street frontage. The proposed clause would ensure that proposed garageswould be located behind the main building alignment, regardless of the location of thebuilding in relation to the front boundary. An amendment is proposed to the Visual Privacy Section 3.5.2 b), this clause requiresany window of a habitable room located on an upper level to be screened or have a sillheight of 1.7 metres. It is proposed that this clause be amendment to apply only towindows of “living rooms”.

Planning and Environment Committee Meeting 5 April 2011 Page 412.6 Draft Campbelltown (Sustainable City) Dcp 2011 (Volumes 1, 2 & 3) - Stage 4 An amendment is proposed to Swimming Pools Section 3.7.4 a). It is proposed tochange the maximum coping/decking height that triggers the setback requirements of5.0 metres from side and rear boundaries, from 300mm to 600mm to be consistent withthe State Environmental Planning Policy (Exempt and Complying Codes) 2008. Inaddition the required setback for pools that incorporate above ground decking, is toinclude all associated structures (including decking). i.e the deck has to be setback by 5metres where it is higher than 600mm from natural ground floor. An additional design clause is proposed for Section 3.8 Narrow Lot Dwellings. Councilstaff have reviewed existing narrow lot housing developments built in accordance withthe existing SCDCP provisions, and it is considered that these developments generallyhave a poor streetscape presentation resulting from garage dominated building facades.Given the site width restriction of these allotments, it is considered that the best designoutcome would be to require a non-obtrusive open type parking design to ensure thatthe street façade of these developments promotes a high standard of excellence.Accordingly, an additional design clause is proposed for narrow lot housing developments torestrict standard garages along the primary street frontage.Proposed Amendments to Part 4 Residential and Mixed-Use DevelopmentSite Requirements for Mixed Use DevelopmentUnder the current provisions of the SCDCP, Council may consider a mixed use development onsites less than 2,500 sqm and width less than 30 metres, only where a building on the allotmentwas in existence on the date the plan became effective.The above clause has been amended to delete the reference of “an existing building on theallotment” as it created confusion and restricted mixed use developments on vacant allotments.It is proposed that Clause 4.5.2 Site Requirements for mixed-use development be amended toread: Council may consider a mixed-use development on land with an area less than 2,500and a width less than 30 metres.It should be noted that the existing Part 4 now becomes Part 5 in the amended document.Proposed Amendments to Part 5 Commercial DevelopmentOn 2 May 2000, Council adopted a DCP entitled DCP No. 96 The Provision of ParentingFacilities.
