57Classification and reclassification of public land as operational land(1)

The public land described in Schedule 4 is classified, or reclassified, as operational land for the purposes of the Local Government Act 1993, subject to this clause.

(2)

  • (a)

    to the extent (if any) that the land is a public reserve, does not cease to be a public reserve, and

  • (b)

    continues to be affected by any trusts, estates, interests, dedications, conditions, restrictions or covenants by which it was affected before its classification, or reclassification, as the case requires, as operational land.

(3)

Land described in Columns 1 and 2 of Part 2 of Schedule 4, to the extent (if any) that it is a public reserve, ceases to be a public reserve on the commencement of the relevant amending plan and, by the operation of that plan, is discharged from all trusts, estates, interests, dedications, conditions, restrictions and covenants affecting the land or any part of the land except those specified opposite the land in Column 3 of Part 2 of Schedule 4.

(4)

In this clause, the relevant amending plan, in relation to land described in Part 2 of Schedule 4, means the local environmental plan that inserted the description of the land into that Part.

(5)

Before the relevant amending plan inserted the description of land into Part 2 of Schedule 4, the Governor approved of subclause (3) applying to the land.

58Development by public authorities(1)

Nothing in this plan is to be construed as restricting or prohibiting, or enabling the consent authority to restrict or prohibit, the carrying out of an activity of any description specified in Schedule 3 by a public authority or a corporation that was a public authority but has been privatised.

(2)

Nothing in this plan is to be construed as removing the requirement of determining authorities to consider the impact on the environment of an activity in accordance with Part 5 of the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act 1979.

59Services

The consent authority may decline to grant consent to the carrying out of any development on land unless:

  • (a)

    a water supply, and facilities for sewage disposal and drainage, are available to that land, or

  • (b)

    arrangements satisfactory to the consent authority and to Sydney Water, as the case requires, have been made or are required to be made for the provision of that supply and those facilities.

60Suspension of covenants, agreements and instruments(1)

For the purpose of enabling development to be carried out in accordance with this plan (as in force at the time the development is carried out) or in accordance with a consent granted under the Act, the operation of any covenant, agreement or similar instrument that purports to impose restrictions on the carrying out of development on the land to which this plan applies, to the extent necessary to serve that purpose, does not apply to any such development.

(2)

Nothing in subclause (1) affects the rights or interests of any public authority under any registered instrument.

(3)

Pursuant to section 28 of the Act, before the making of this clause the Governor approved of subclauses (1) and (2).

61Temporary use of land

Despite any other provision of this plan, the consent authority may grant development consent to the carrying out of development (other than designated or State significant development) for any purpose for a maximum period of 28 days, whether consecutive or non-consecutive, in any one year, but only if:

  • (a)

    it would not generate an excessive demand for public services, and

  • (b)

    it would be compatible with the character and amenity of nearby development in terms of:

    • (i)

      its design, height and siting, and

    • (ii)

      its operation, and

    • (iii)

      traffic generation and car parking, and

    • (iv)

      noise, light, dust, and odour nuisance, and

    • (v)

      privacy, and

    • (vi)

      stormwater drainage, and

    • (vii)

      hours of operation, and

    • (viii)

      overshadowing, and

  • (c)

    it would not be inconsistent with any current consent applying to the land.

62Trees

A tree preservation order made in relation to land to which this plan applies, and in force immediately before the appointed day, is taken to be a tree preservation order made by the Council under clause 8 of the Environmental Planning and Assessment Model Provisions 1980 and may be rescinded or varied in accordance with that clause.

63Model provisions

The following provisions of the Environmental Planning and Assessment Model Provisions 1980 are adopted for the purposes of this plan:

  • (b)

    clause 8 (Preservation of trees).

64Staged development(1)

  • (a)

    the first stage, to the greatest extent practicable, has regard to all of the matters required by Part 2 of Schedule 7 to be taken into account in staged development proposals and such additional matters as the consent authority may require in relation to the parcel, and

  • (b)

    each subsequent stage has regard to the first stage.

(2)

Subclause (1) does not apply if:

  • (a)

    the development concerned is for the purpose of landscaping, servicing, remediation or demolition, or

  • (b)

    the development is, in the opinion of the consent authority, of a minor nature, or

  • (c)

    in the opinion of the consent authority, consent has been granted for all development of the parcel that will be carried out as staged development.

(3)

Consent must not be granted to staged development of the parcel of land identified in Part 1 of Schedule 7 as the Lidcombe Hospital Site unless the total number of dwellings to be erected on the land does not exceed the number calculated in accordance with the following formula:

Area MP means the area in square metres of the site which is the subject of the staged development proposal.

Area R means the area in square metres of the land to be used as roadways.

Area POS means the area in square metres of the land to be used as public open space.

For the purposes of this subclause:

(4)

Consent must not be granted to the first stage of a staged development of the parcel of land identified in Part 1 of Schedule 7 as the Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) Site unless the consent:

  • (a)

    applies to the whole of the Site, or

  • (b)

    applies to:

      all the land zoned 2 (b) Residential (Medium Density) within the Site, or
