This Plan applies to the land identified on the Land Application Map.
Despite subclause (1), this Plan does not apply to the land identified as “Deferred matter” on the Land Application Map.
The Dictionary at the end of this Plan defines words and expressions for the purposes of this Plan.
Notes in this Plan are provided for guidance and do not form part of this Plan.
The consent authority for the purposes of this Plan is (subject to the Act) the Council.
A reference in this Plan to a named map adopted by this Plan is a reference to a map by that name—
(a) approved by the local plan-making authority when the map is adopted, and
(b) as amended or replaced from time to time by maps declared by environmental planning instruments to amend or replace that map, and approved by the local plan-making authority when the instruments are made.
(Repealed)
Any 2 or more named maps may be combined into a single map. In that case, a reference in this Plan to any such named map is a reference to the relevant part or aspect of the single map.
Any such maps are to be kept and made available for public access in accordance with arrangements approved by the Minister.
For the purposes of this Plan, a map may be in, and may be kept and made available in, electronic or paper form, or both.
The maps adopted by this Plan are to be made available on the NSW Planning Portal. Requirements relating to the maps are set out in the documents entitled Standard technical requirements for LEP maps and Standard requirements for LEP GIS data which are available on the website of the Department of Planning and Environment.
All local environmental plans and deemed environmental planning instruments applying only to the land to which this Plan applies are repealed.
All local environmental plans and deemed environmental planning instruments applying to the land to which this Plan applies and to other land cease to apply to the land to which this Plan applies.
If a development application has been made before the commencement of this Plan in relation to land to which this Plan applies and the application has not been finally determined before that commencement, the application must be determined as if this Plan had not commenced.
However, under Division 3.5 of the Act, a development application may be made for consent to carry out development that may only be carried out if the environmental planning instrument applying to the relevant development is appropriately amended or if a new instrument, including an appropriate principal environmental planning instrument, is made, and the consent authority may consider the application. The Division requires public notice of the development application and the draft environmental planning instrument allowing the development at the same time, or as closely together as is practicable.
If a development application has been made before the commencement of State Environmental Planning Policy Amendment (Planning for Bush Fire Protection) 2020 in relation to land to which this Plan applies and the application has not been finally determined before that commencement, the application must be determined as if that Policy had not commenced.
A development application made, but not finally determined, before the commencement of State Environmental Planning Policy Amendment (Flood Planning) 2023 must be determined as if that policy had not commenced.
A development application made, but not finally determined, before the commencement of Blue Mountains Local Environmental Plan 2015 (Amendment No 16) must be determined as if that plan had not commenced.
This Plan is subject to the provisions of any State environmental planning policy that prevails over this Plan as provided by section 3.28 of the Act.
The following State environmental planning policies (or provisions) do not apply to the land to which this Plan applies—
For the purpose of enabling development on land in any zone to be carried out in accordance with this Plan or with a consent granted under the Act, any agreement, covenant or other similar instrument that restricts the carrying out of that development does not apply to the extent necessary to serve that purpose.
This clause does not apply—
(a) to a covenant imposed by the Council or that the Council requires to be imposed, or
(b) to any relevant instrument within the meaning of section 13.4 of the Crown Land Management Act 2016, or
(c) to any conservation agreement within the meaning of the National Parks and Wildlife Act 1974, or
(d) to any Trust agreement within the meaning of the Nature Conservation Trust Act 2001, or
(e) to any property vegetation plan within the meaning of the Native Vegetation Act 2003, or
(f) to any biobanking agreement within the meaning of Part 7A of the Threatened Species Conservation Act 1995, or
(g) to any planning agreement within the meaning of Subdivision 2 of Division 7.1 of the Act.
This clause does not affect the rights or interests of any public authority under any registered instrument.
Under section 3.16 of the Act, the Governor, before the making of this clause, approved of subclauses (1)–(3).
The land use zones under this Plan are as follows—
• Rural Zones RU2 Rural Landscape
RU4 Primary Production Small Lots
• Residential Zones R1 General Residential
R2 Low Density Residential
R3 Medium Density Residential
• Employment Zones E1 Local Centre
E2 Commercial Centre
E3 Productivity Support
E4 General Industrial
• Special Purpose Zones SP1 Special Activities
SP2 Infrastructure
SP3 Tourist
• Recreation Zones RE1 Public Recreation
RE2 Private Recreation
• Conservation Zones C1 National Parks and Nature Reserves
C2 Environmental Conservation
C3 Environmental Management
C4 Environmental Living
• Waterway Zones W1 Natural Waterways
For the purposes of this Plan, land is within the zones shown on the Land Zoning Map.
The Land Use Table at the end of this Part specifies for each zone—
(a) the objectives for development, and
(b) development that may be carried out without development consent, and
(c) development that may be carried out only with development consent, and
(d) development that is prohibited.
The consent authority must have regard to the objectives for development in a zone when determining a development application in respect of land within the zone.
In the Land Use Table at the end of this Part—
(a) a reference to a type of building or other thing is a reference to development for the purposes of that type of building or other thing, and
(b) a reference to a type of building or other thing does not include (despite any definition in this Plan) a reference to a type of building or other thing referred to separately in the Land Use Table in relation to the same zone.
This clause is subject to the other provisions of this Plan.
Schedule 1 sets out additional permitted uses for particular land.
Schedule 2 sets out exempt development (which is generally exempt from both Parts 4 and 5 of the Act). Development in the land use table that may be carried out without consent is nevertheless subject to the environmental assessment and approval requirements of Part 5 of the Act.
Schedule 3 sets out complying development (for which a complying development certificate may be issued as an alternative to obtaining development consent).
Clause 2.6 requires consent for subdivision of land.
Part 5 contains other provisions which require consent for particular development.
Development may be carried out on unzoned land only with development consent.
In deciding whether to grant development consent, the consent authority—
(a) must consider whether the development will impact on adjoining zoned land and, if so, consider the objectives for development in the zones of the adjoining land, and
(b) must be satisfied that the development is appropriate and is compatible with permissible land uses in any such adjoining land.
Development on particular land that is described or referred to in Schedule 1 may be carried out—
(a) with development consent, or
(b) if the Schedule so provides—without development consent,
in accordance with the conditions (if any) specified in that Schedule in relation to that development.
This clause has effect despite anything to the contrary in the Land Use Table or other provision of this Plan.
Land to which this Plan applies may be subdivided, but only with development consent.
If a subdivision is specified as
Part 6 of State Environmental Planning Policy (Exempt and Complying
Development Codes) 2008 provides that the strata subdivision of a building in certain circumstances is
Development consent must not be granted for the subdivision of land on which a secondary dwelling is situated if the subdivision would result in the principal dwelling and the secondary dwelling being situated on separate lots, unless the resulting lots are not less than the minimum size shown on the Lot Size Map in relation to that land.
The definition of
The demolition of a building or work may be carried out only with development consent.
If the demolition of a building or work is identified in an applicable environmental planning instrument, such as this Plan or State Environmental Planning Policy (Exempt and Complying Development Codes) 2008, as exempt development, the Act enables it to be carried out without development consent.
The objective of this clause is to provide for the temporary use of land if the use does not compromise future development of the land, or have detrimental economic, social, amenity or environmental effects on the land.
Despite any other provision of this Plan, development consent may be granted for development on land in any zone for a temporary use for a maximum period of 28 days (whether or not consecutive days) in any period of 12 months.
Development consent must not be granted unless the consent authority is satisfied that—
(a) the temporary use will not prejudice the subsequent carrying out of development on the land in accordance with this Plan and any other applicable environmental planning instrument, and
(b) the temporary use will not adversely impact on any adjoining land or the amenity of the neighbourhood, and
(c) the temporary use and location of any structures related to the use will not adversely impact on environmental attributes or features of the land, or increase the risk of natural hazards that may affect the land, and
(d) at the end of the temporary use period the land will, as far as is practicable, be restored to the condition in which it was before the commencement of the use.
Despite subclause (2), the temporary use of a dwelling as a sales office for a new release area or a new housing estate may exceed the maximum number of days specified in that subclause.
Subclause (3) (d) does not apply to the temporary use of a dwelling as a sales office mentioned in subclause (4).
Canal estate development is prohibited on land to which this Plan applies.
In this Plan,
(a) a constructed canal, or other waterway or waterbody, that—
(i) is inundated by surface water or groundwater movement, or
(ii) drains to a waterway or waterbody by surface water or groundwater movement, and
(b) the erection of a dwelling, and
(c) one or both of the following—
(i) the use of fill material to raise the level of all or part of the land on which the dwelling will be erected to comply with requirements for residential development in the flood planning area,
(ii) excavation to create a waterway.
Canal estate development does not include development for the purposes of drainage or the supply or treatment of water if the development is—
(a) carried out by or with the authority of a person or body responsible for the drainage, supply or treatment, and
(b) limited to the minimum reasonable size and capacity.
