Campbelltown Local Environmental Plan No 209—Exempt Development (NSW)
This plan is Campbelltown Local Environmental Plan No 209—Exempt Development.
The aims of this plan are to:
(a) provide for exempt development in the City of Campbelltown to allow small scale, low impact development, that is associated with existing development, to proceed in an efficient manner, and
(b) ensure that exempt development does not result in any environmental nuisance or interference with the amenity, environmental protection or rural character of the neighbourhood in which it is carried out because of the emission of noise, vibration, smell, dust, fumes, smoke, vapour, steam, soot, ash, waste water, waste products, grit or oil or otherwise, and
(c) ensure that the cumulative impact of development classed as exempt development does not detrimentally affect the amenity of the City of Campbelltown, and
(d) limit the amount of exempt development that can be carried out on a particular allotment of land, and
(e) maintain the amenity of residential areas by ensuring that a certain amount of private open space is retained on each residential property, to allow for adequate sunlight, drainage and the like, and
(f) respect the urban design, streetscapes, rural character, environmental qualities and aesthetic and scenic qualities of the Campbelltown local government area, and ensure that these are maintained, and
(g) limit the area of a particular property that can be used for the carrying out of exempt development, and
(h) ensure that development is undertaken in accordance with the principles of ecologically sustainable development.
