Dubbo Local Environmental Plan 1998—Urban Areas (NSW)
This plan is Dubbo Local Environmental Plan 1998—Urban Areas.
This plan applies to all land within the local government area of the City of Dubbo shown on the Zoning Map.
The aim of this plan is to implement the conclusions of the environmental study prepared for the urban areas of Dubbo known as the Urban Development Strategy, dated December 1996 and adopted by the Council on 16 December 1996, and the 1994–1997 Dubbo State of the Environment Reports. The Strategy is based on the principles contained in the Dubbo 21 Plan (dated 1995) which provides an economic blueprint to guide the growth of the City into the 21st century.
The objectives of this plan are derived from the Urban Development Strategy (dated December 1996), the 1994–1997 Dubbo State of the Environment Reports and subsequent legislation, and are as follows:
To ensure that all forms of new urban development conform to the principles of ecologically sustainable development and do not exceed the servicing capacity of the land on which the development is carried out.
To facilitate the Dubbo 21 Plan vision for the City by ensuring the supply of suitable residential, commercial, industrial, institutional and recreational land within a well integrated expanded urban land use framework.
To satisfy the residential land supply needs of the growing Dubbo population so as to provide a range of lifestyle choices competitive with other cities.
To achieve a City structure which centralises the central business district (CBD) by shifting the future residential locational emphasis to West Dubbo over time.
To identify and protect the established residential neighbourhoods and ensure a sufficient supply of suitable land to meet the future residential development needs of the City.
To ensure the CBD remains the primary commercial centre for Dubbo and the Region.
To maintain and enhance a healthy, diverse and adaptable commercial sector in Dubbo, able to effectively service the commercial needs of the City and the Region.
To protect and enhance the existing network of retailing centres, the distinctive functions of each level in the hierarchy and the particular role of each centre.
To encourage an expanded tourism industry in Dubbo.
To ensure supply and a range of suitable industrial land with appropriate infrastructure for the implementation of the Dubbo 21 Plan (Industrial Development Strategies).
To allow mines and extractive industries and to prevent the sterilisation of resources.
To provide the most favourable environment for the establishment and operation of medical, educational, cultural and research institutions appropriate to the City and the Region.
To provide high quality open space for recreation to meet the widest practicable range of active and passive recreational needs and expectations of the local and regional community.
To identify and protect the cultural and architectural heritage of the City and assist in its promotion as a tourism asset.
To protect agricultural enterprises in the adjoining rural area from encroachment and restraint on their operations due to conflict with urban amenity expectations.
To prevent the spread of erosion and remedy existing areas of erosion.
To reduce the spread of urban salinity.
To minimise potential contamination of land and to control existing contamination of land.
To ensure safe, sustainable and multifunctional riverine environments.
To protect and improve water levels and water quality in aquifers.
To ensure urban stormwater is appropriately managed and water quality of river systems is not diminished.
To protect existing wildlife habitats and achieve a network of habitats and corridors able to support the flora and fauna native to the area of the City of Dubbo.
To protect life, property and the environment from bushfire hazards by discouraging the establishment of incompatible land uses in bushfire prone areas and to encourage sound management of bushfire prone areas.
To ensure noise and air pollution are maintained within acceptable environmental limits.
To allow for water distribution to and from flood-dependent environments.
To manage the flood plain so as to minimise the disruption and hazard of flooding to people and the environment.
This plan repeals Dubbo Local Environmental Plan 1991—Urban Lands, Dubbo Local Environmental Plan 1990—Central District and the Dubbo and Talbragar Planning Scheme Ordinance.
Orana Regional Environmental Plan No 1—Siding Spring prevails to the extent of any inconsistency between that plan and this plan.
Words used in this plan that are defined in the dictionary in Schedule 1 have the meanings set out in the dictionary.
In this plan, a reference to a map is to a map held in the office of the Council.
Notes included in this plan do not form part of this plan.
The Council is the consent authority for the purposes of this plan, subject to the Act.
All applications for consent for development must be assessed with regard to the Principles of Ecologically Sustainable Development in terms of land, air and water resources, biodiversity, and waste and noise matters.
In assessing proposals for any development of land, specific regard must be given to each of the environmental management objectives of this plan.
In giving regard to each objective, the consent authority must consider the best information available to the consent authority at the time, which may include any relevant management plans or policies adopted by the Council, as well as the following specific considerations:
(1) in relation to
soil erosion —whether the proposal involves clearing the land or other disturbance to the land, and the likelihood of soil erosion or other instability given any measures taken by the developer to ameliorate that potential impact,(2) in relation to
salinity —whether there is potential for the development to cause or exacerbate any outbreaks of salinity,(3) in relation to
contamination —whether there is potential for the land to be contaminated, given the known history of the use of the land or its location in the vicinity of land which may be contaminated and the potential for the proposed use to cause contamination,(4) in relation to
waterways —whether there is potential for degradation of water quality or quantity or destabilisation of waterways,(5) in relation to
aquifers —whether the land is vulnerable to groundwater contamination as identified on the map labelled “Dubbo Groundwater Vulnerability Map” dated February 1996 and held in the offices of the Council and the potential of the development to affect water levels or quality in the aquifer,(6) in relation to
stormwater quality —whether there is potential for degradation of the quality of stormwater discharges, given any stormwater quality control measures proposed by the developer,(7) in relation to
wildlife habitats —whether there is a conservation plan and, if so, its contents, and the likely effect of the development on threatened species, populations or habitats or areas identified by the Council as potential habitat,(8) in relation to
wetlands —whether there is potential for the development to alter the quality or quantity of water flowing into, within or out of a wetland or the level, frequency or duration of wetland inundation,(9) in relation to
bushfire —whether there is potential bushfire hazard by reason of the vegetation on the land or on any adjacent land and the nature of the development,(10) in relation to
waste —the content of the Council’s Liquid Trade Waste Policy (as amended from time to time) and proposals to dispose of solid waste,(11) in relation to
noise pollution —whether there is potential for the development to degrade the environment in terms of noise generation,(12) in relation to
air pollution —whether there is potential for the development to degrade the air quality of the environment.
Consent may be granted to development for the purposes of emergency services, emergency facilities, emergency operation centres or the like that, in the opinion of the consent authority, are essential in times of major flooding, but only in a location where the consent authority is satisfied that they will be fully operational during a probable maximum flood.
Consent may be granted to development for the purposes of essential infrastructure, such as water supply, sewerage, telephones, electricity and the like, but only in a location where the consent authority is satisfied that the infrastructure will be fully operational during a probable maximum flood.
Despite subclause (1A), consent may be granted to development for the purposes of such essential infrastructure in any other location, but only if, in the opinion of the consent authority:
(a) it is not practicable for the infrastructure to be in a location referred to in subclause (1A), and
(b) the design and construction of the infrastructure will render the infrastructure flood proof or will ensure that services can be easily restored after a flood.
Consent must not be granted for development on land that is below the Flood Planning Level, unless the consent authority is satisfied that the carrying out of the development is unlikely to significantly:
(a) impede the flow of floodwater, or
(b) imperil the safety of persons on land inundated by floodwaters, or
(c) exacerbate the adverse consequences of floodwaters flowing on the land with regard to erosion, siltation and the destruction of vegetation, or
(d) have an adverse effect on riverbank stability, or
(e) increase the level or flow of floodwaters over the land or over adjacent land, or
(f) increase dependency on emergency services,
and the consent authority has considered the consequences of all floods up to the magnitude of the Probable Maximum Flood on access and evacuation routes servicing the land, particularly from the perspective of the risk of entrapment and the danger to life of the entrapped and their rescuers.
Consent must not be granted to the development of land below the Flood Planning Level unless the consent authority has taken into consideration:
(a) the provisions of any manual for the management of flood liable land, the publication of which has been notified in the Gazette under section 733 (5) of the Local Government Act 1993, and
(b) the relevant characteristics of flooding known to the consent authority, and
(c) the requirements of the Council’s floodplain management plan.
This clause applies to the following land:
(a) all land identified as bushfire prone land on the bush fire prone land map,
(b) land taken to be bushfire prone land under clause 42 of Schedule 6 to the Act,
(c) land that, in the opinion of the consent authority, is prone to bushfire.
The consent authority must not grant consent to development on land to which this clause applies unless the consent authority is satisfied that:
(a) there is no significant threat to the lives of residents, visitors or emergency services personnel that may be created or increased as a result of the development or the access arrangements to and from the development, and
(b) the measures adopted in relation to the development to avoid or mitigate the threat of bushfire (including the siting of the development, design of structures and materials used, clearing of vegetation, fuel reduced areas and landscaping and fire control aids, such as roads and water supplies) are adequate for the locality and will not result in unacceptable or unsustainable environmental impacts, and
(c) the development will not cause any significant increase in demand for emergency services during bushfire events that would decrease the ability of emergency service personnel to effectively control major bushfires, and
(d) the development is unlikely to have a significant adverse effect on the implementation of strategies for bushfire control or fuel management adopted by the Council.
This clause applies to land adjacent to, or within 200 metres of, land described as a Transport Corridor, being land that is:
(a) within Zone 1 (b) or Zone 2 (c) as shown on Sheet 1, or
(b) identified on Sheet 2,
of the Zoning Map.
The consent authority must not grant consent to development of land to which this clause applies unless it is satisfied that:
(a) one of the following applies:
(i) the access to the land concerned is from another road (that is not a Transport Corridor), and that access is at least 90 metres from the centre line of the road that is a Transport Corridor,
(ii) the development will not prejudice future improvements to, or realignment of, any relevant classified road, as may be indicated to the Council from time to time by the Roads and Traffic Authority, and
(b) (Repealed)
(c) the development, by its nature or intensity or the volume and type of traffic likely to be generated by it, is not likely to constitute a traffic hazard or to materially reduce the capacity, safety and efficiency of any relevant classified road to carry traffic, and
(d) the location, standard and design of access points, and on-site arrangements for vehicle movement and parking, ensure that through traffic movements on any relevant classified road will not be impeded, and
(e) the visual impact of the proposed development is minimal, given any measures proposed to ameliorate the impact, and
(f) the land comprises a lot that has access to a Transport Corridor and was lawfully created by a subdivision, the consent for which was granted before the appointed day.
The consent authority must not consent to the erection of a residential building within 200 metres of a Transport Corridor, or a non-residential structure within 100 metres of a Transport Corridor, on land within Zone 1 (b), 2 (d) or 2 (e).
Despite subclause (3), the consent authority may consent to development referred to in that subclause where it can be clearly demonstrated that this will not result in a detrimental impact on any of the following:
(a) the efficiency of the Transport Corridor,
(b) the visual quality of the locality,
(c) the attainment of any of the objectives of the zone,
(d) the use for which the building or other structure is intended,
and the design and location of the building or other structure meet any relevant Environment Protection Authority noise requirements.
The consent authority must not grant consent for the carrying out of development on land shown as subject to obstacle limitations on the map entitled “Dubbo Airport—Obstacle Limitation Surfaces” dated 26 August 1997, unless it has made an assessment of:
(a) the effect of aircraft noise on the development, and
(b) the effect of the development on aerodrome height limitations and runway surface conditions, and
(c) the effect of the lighting associated with carrying out the development on local night-time flying operations, and
(d) any bird hazard likely to be generated by carrying out the development in respect of the aerodrome.
A person must not, on land shown as described in subclause (1):
(a) erect a structure to a height that exceeds the Obstacle Limitation Surface as available from the Council, or
(b) carry out development for the purpose of:
(i) a dam or reservoir, or
(ii) the handling or storage of grain, or
(iii) the disposal of refuse, or
(iv) a sewage treatment plant or effluent ponds, or
(v) an abattoir, or
(vi) a stock yard complex, or
(vii) the provision or enhancement of a habitat likely to attract birds which may be a hazard to aircraft, or
(viii) any other land use which as a result of the creation or disposal of waste foodstuffs could, in the opinion of the consent authority, constitute an attraction to birds,
except with the consent of the consent authority.
The consent authority must refer to the Civil Aviation Safety Authority any application for consent to carry out development referred to in subclause (2) where a structure is proposed the height of which would exceed the height of the Obstacle Limitation Surface.
In considering whether to grant consent to development referred to in subclause (3), the consent authority must take into consideration any comments furnished by the Civil Aviation Safety Authority to the consent authority within 30 days after referral of the application to the Authority.
The consent authority must advise the Civil Aviation Safety Authority of any structure that it is aware is proposed to be erected on land to which this plan applies that has a height of 110 metres or greater above the natural ground level.
Consent is required for the erection of residential buildings, hotels, motels, offices, public buildings, and buildings to be used for commercial or industrial purposes, or for any like use, on land which has an ANEF reading of 20 dB (A) or more as shown on the ANEF map available from the Council.
The consent authority must not grant consent to any development referred to in subclause (6) if it is of the opinion that the development does not meet Australian Standard AS 2021–1994(Acoustics—Aircraft noise intrusion—Building siting and construction) published by Standards Australia in 1994 regarding interior noise levels.
In this clause,
The following development may be carried out within a character conservation area only with the consent of the consent authority:
(a) demolishing, defacing, damaging or moving a building, work, or tree or group of trees listed in the Council’s Tree Preservation Order,
(b) altering a building or work by making structural changes to its exterior,
(c) altering a building or work by making non-structural changes to the detail, fabric, finish or appearance of its exterior, except changes resulting from any maintenance necessary for its ongoing protective care which does not adversely affect its streetscape significance,
(d) erecting a building.
The consent authority must not grant consent to development referred to in subclause (2) unless it has taken into consideration the extent to which the carrying out of the proposed development would adversely affect the elements of any building concerned which are consistent with those elements that define the built character of the area, the building and the streetscape.
Nothing in this plan prevents the consent authority from granting consent for the development of land in any residential zone for the purpose of an exhibition home for a period of up to, but no more than, 12 months if the land does not front a Transport Corridor.
Land to which this plan applies must not be subdivided except with the consent of the consent authority.
Nothing in this plan prevents the consent authority from granting consent to a subdivision for the purpose of any of the following:
(a) widening or opening a public road,
(b) rectifying an encroachment on an allotment,
(c) creating a public reserve,
(d) consolidating allotments,
(e) excising from an allotment land which is, or is intended to be, used for public purposes, including drainage purposes, bushfire brigade or other emergency service purposes, or a public convenience,
(f) making an adjustment to a boundary between allotments,
but only if (except in the case of a lot created by consolidating former lots) the subdivision does not result in the creation of an additional dwelling house entitlement or the loss of an existing dwelling house entitlement.
Despite subclause (2), consent may be granted to a subdivision making boundary changes between allotments within Zone 1 (b) or 1 (e) that results in the creation of an additional dwelling house entitlement, but only where all lots created (including residue lots) that contain dwelling houses, or are created for the purpose of dwelling houses, satisfy the minimum lot size for dwelling houses in the zone.
Nothing in this plan prevents consent being granted to a subdivision for a land use permitted in the zone, but only where development for that land use has been consented to and where the subdivision satisfies the other applicable provisions of this plan.
Nothing in this plan prevents consent being granted to a subdivision along a zone boundary, but only where each lot created meets the minimum lot size for the relevant zone and the consent authority is satisfied that there are no constraints (such as flooding) preventing the subsequent independent development of each such lot created for the purpose of the land use for which it is zoned.
Nothing in this plan restricts or prohibits, or enables the consent authority to restrict or prohibit, any activity described in Schedule 2.
Despite any other provision of this plan, the consent authority may grant consent to the carrying out of development on land for any purpose (not being designated development) for a maximum period of 28 days, whether consecutive or non-consecutive, in any one year.
Nothing in this plan prevents a person, with the consent of the consent authority, from carrying out development on land referred to in Schedule 3 specified in relation to that land in that Schedule, subject to such conditions, if any, as are so specified.
Subclause (1) does not affect the application, to or in respect of development to which this clause applies, of such of the provisions of this plan as are consistent with that subclause or with a consent granted by the consent authority in respect of the development.
If any agreement, covenant or similar instrument prohibits a use of land allowed by this plan, then that agreement, covenant or similar agreement does not apply to that use to the extent necessary to allow that use.
Nothing in subclause (1) affects the rights or interests under any registered instrument in favour of the Council or any other public authority.
In accordance with section 28 of the Act, the Governor approved of subclauses (1) and (2) before this plan was made.
The public land described in Schedule 8 is classified, or reclassified, as operational land for the purposes of the Local Government Act 1993, subject to this clause.
Land described in Part 1 of Schedule 8:
(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.
Land described in Columns 1 and 2 of Part 2 of Schedule 8, 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 for:
(a) those (if any) specified for the land in Column 3 of Part 2 of Schedule 8, and
(b) any reservations that except land out of a Crown grant relating to the land, and
(c) reservation of minerals (within the meaning of the Crown Lands Act 1989).
In this clause,
Before the relevant amending plan inserted the description of land into Part 2 of Schedule 8, the Governor approved of subclause (3) applying to the land.
Except as provided by subclause (2), a person must not erect an advertisement on land to which this plan applies.
A person may, but only with the consent of the consent authority, erect an advertisement, if the advertisement:
(a) relates to the purpose for which the land is used, or
(b) directs the travelling public to places of scientific, historical or scenic interest.
Despite the other provisions of this plan, the consent of the consent authority is not required for the erection of:
(a) a shop window display, or
(b) a commercial sign (except for commercial signs in the character conservation area or commercial signs on or in the vicinity of heritage items),
on land to which the display or sign relates.
Despite the other provisions of this plan, the consent authority may grant development consent to the community use of the facilities and sites of schools, colleges and other educational establishments and to the commercial operation of those facilities and sites.
Development of minimal environmental impact listed in column 1 of Schedule 1 to DCP G4.1—Exempt and Complying Development as adopted by the Council on 28 June 1999 is exempt development, subject to subclauses (2) and (3).
Development is exempt development only if it complies with the development standards and other requirements set out opposite the development concerned in column 2 of Schedule 1 to DCP G4.1—Exempt and Complying Development as adopted by the Council on 28 June 1999.
Development is not exempt development if it is carried out on land that is within Zone 1 (b), 1 (e), 6 (a), 6 (b) or 6 (c) or a character conservation area shown on the zoning map, or is the site of an Aboriginal relic recorded at the office of the Council.
Development listed in column 1 of Schedule 2 to DCP G4.1—Exempt and Complying Development as adopted by the Council on 28 June 1999 is complying development if:
(a) it is local development of a kind that can be carried out with consent on the land on which it is proposed, and
(b) it is not an existing use, as defined in section 106 of the Act,
subject to subclauses (2) and (3).
Development is complying development only if it complies with the development standards and other requirements set out opposite the development concerned in column 2 of Schedule 2 to DCP G4.1—Exempt and Complying Development as adopted by the Council on 28 June 1999.
Development is not complying development if it is carried out on land that is within Zone 1 (b), 1 (e), 6 (a), 6 (b) or 6 (c) or a character conservation area shown on the zoning map, or is the site of an Aboriginal relic recorded at the office of the Council.
A complying development certificate issued for any complying development is to be subject to the conditions for the development specified in DCP G4.1—Exempt and Complying Development adopted by the Council, as in force when the certificate is issued.
A development application lodged, but not finally determined, before the commencement of an amendment to this plan made by a local environmental plan is to be determined as if the amending plan had been exhibited but the amendment had not commenced.
Land is within one of the following zones as identified on the Zoning Map:
• 1 (b) Urban/Rural Buffer Zone
• 1 (e) Urban Expansion Zone
• 2 (a) Residential Suburban Zone

The other Divisions of this Part set out the objectives of zones and specify the development that may be carried out without development consent or only with development consent or that is prohibited within each zone. Other controls for land within the same zone are also specified.
These other Divisions also specify development which may be carried out with development consent but which must be advertised. The consent authority must give public notice of proposed development required to be advertised under this subclause:
(a) by written notices to such landowners in the vicinity of the proposed development as the consent authority considers appropriate, and
(b) by a notice published in a newspaper circulating generally in the Dubbo City area (unless the consent authority considers the likely impact of the proposed development on the immediate locality to be minimal), and
(c) if the consent authority so wishes, additionally by any other appropriate means.
The notices must state that any person may make a written submission to the consent authority in relation to the proposed development during the period specified in the notice (which must be a period of at least 14 days after the issue of the notice). The consent authority must have regard to any submissions received within the specified period when determining the relevant development application.
The consent authority must not grant consent for development of land within a zone unless it is satisfied that the development is consistent with the aims and objectives of this plan and the objectives of the zone.
The following rural zones apply as identified on the Zoning Map:
• 1 (b) Urban/Rural Buffer Zone
• 1 (e) Urban Expansion Zone
The following clauses give a description of land in each rural zone, the objectives of the zone and what development is prohibited or may be carried out without or only with the consent of the consent authority.
Land within the Urban/Rural Buffer Zone is located on the outskirts of the urban area and has the role of providing a buffer between urban uses (sensitive to amenity issues) and large-scale commercial agriculture (which characterises the surrounding land that is subject to Dubbo Local Environmental Plan 1997—Rural Areas).
The objectives of Zone 1 (b) are as follows:
(a) to protect agricultural enterprises carried out on land beyond the land to which this plan applies from further fragmentation and from restraint on their operations which could result from conflict with urban amenity expectations,
(b) to provide for small-scale rural activities or other compatible land uses consistent with managing land as a “buffer” separating sensitive urban land uses from the surrounding rural area or from industrial or utility uses,
(c) to discourage the expectation of an urban standard of amenities or level of services in the urban/rural buffer,
(d) to promote recognition that agricultural production, undertaken in a manner consistent with sustainable resource management principles and accepted agricultural practice, will not be restrained in response to non-agricultural activities being undertaken within the urban/rural buffer,
(e) to ensure environmentally sensitive land is managed in an appropriate manner.
Development for the purpose of the following may be carried out on land within Zone 1 (b) without development consent:
• agriculture; environmental conservation; home based child care establishments; home occupations.
Development that is not included in subclause (3), (5) or (6) may be carried out on land within Zone 1 (b) only with development consent.
Development for the purpose of the following may be carried out on land within Zone 1 (b) only with development consent and only after advertising in accordance with clause 20 (2):
• aerodromes; animal cemeteries; animal establishments; bulk fuel stores; cabins or caravan sites; camp sites; community service facilities; companion animal facilities; correctional centres; cultural centres; extractive industries; freight transport terminals; home industries; intensive agriculture; materials recycling depots; mining; rural industries; transfer stations; transport depots; turf farming.
Development for the purpose of the following is prohibited on land within Zone 1 (b):
• abattoirs; advertisements; boarding houses; brothels; bulky goods sales rooms or showrooms; business premises; car parks; cemeteries; child care centres; clubs; community centres; convenience service stations; corner stores; cotton farming; dairies; dual occupancies; educational establishments; entertainment facilities; exhibition homes; fast food outlets; funeral establishments, helipads; hospitals; hotels; industries; intensive livestock keeping establishments; light industries; machinery dealerships; major retail attractors; medical consulting rooms; medium density housing; motor and recreational vehicle dealerships; offensive or hazardous industries; office premises; on-site waste disposal (except where ancillary to another lawful use of the land); passenger transport terminals; places of worship; public buildings; restaurant rooms; restricted premises; sawmills; semi-detached housing; service stations; shops; stock and sale yards; taverns; tourist accommodation; treated waste application; vehicle body repair workshops; vehicle repair stations; warehouses or distribution centres; waste disposal facilities.
With the exception of subdivision as provided for in clause 13, subdivision of land within Zone 1 (b) is prohibited.
The consent authority may consent to the erection of a dwelling house on land within Zone 1 (b) only if:
(a) there is no existing dwelling house on the land and the consent authority is satisfied that effluent can be disposed of on-site, having regard to sustainable resource management principles, and
(b) the land comprises a lot that the consent authority is satisfied was created for the purpose of a dwelling house by a subdivision for which consent was granted before the appointed day, being an allotment on which a dwelling house could have been lawfully erected immediately before the appointed day, or
(c) the land comprises a lot that has an area of at least 8 hectares and does not abut the boundary with, or a road reserve abutting, land subject to Dubbo Local Environmental Plan 1997—Rural Areas or a Transport Corridor, or
(d) where the land abuts that boundary or a Transport Corridor, the land comprises a lot that has an area of at least 20 hectares and the proposed dwelling house will be sited at least 200 metres from that boundary or Transport Corridor.
The consent authority may consent to the erection of one, but only one, interim additional dwelling on land within Zone 1 (b) that is a dwelling house to be occupied by an employee involved in rural activities on the land or a member of the landowner’s family, or where use of the dwelling is ancillary to a use of the land for which consent has been granted, if:
(a) the land on which the dwelling will be erected will not be capable of being excised by way of transfer of a new or existing title, and
(b) the dwellings share a common access to a public road, and
(c) the consent authority is satisfied that the dwelling is for an interim period only and that the dwelling is:
(i) transportable, or
(ii) capable of being converted to another use permissible on, and consistent with the lawful primary use of, the land concerned, and
(d) the consent authority is satisfied that the interim additional dwelling will be inhabited by either a relative of the owner or an employee involved in a rural activity on the land for which consent has been granted (and who is required to be on-site) or use of the dwelling will be ancillary to and necessary to sustain another productive land use for which consent has been granted.
Land within the Urban Expansion Zone is located on the edge of the established urban area that has been specifically identified for future residential, industrial or recreational use, or for infrastructure development.
The objectives of Zone 1 (e) are as follows:
(a) to identify land of strategic value for future urban development for residential, industrial, recreational or urban infrastructure purposes as designated on the Zoning Map so that development of this land can proceed at a time and in a manner consistent with the use identified in the Urban Development Strategy (dated December 1996),
(b) to enable development of land for agriculture and for land uses ordinarily incidental to the use of land for agriculture until the land is needed for urban purposes,
(c) to limit development of land to uses that will:
(i) not interfere with the agricultural use of adjacent and surrounding land, and
(ii) be compatible with the future urban development of the land as identified in the Urban Development Strategy (dated December 1996) and nearby urban uses (including quarries and extractive industries), and
(iii) retain the rural character of the locality, and
(iv) not create unreasonable, premature or uneconomic demands for the provision or extension of public amenities and services,
(d) to provide a zoning for land prior to its release for urban purposes, which would then be subject to rezoning which should not take place unless:
(i) it is consistent with an adopted urban development strategy and structure plan for the precinct in which the land is located, and
(ii) appropriate land capability investigations have been carried out, and
(iii) sufficient demand exists for the release of the land for urban purposes, and
(iv) appropriate urban infrastructure and facilities are available to the land, or can be provided to the land by its developer.
Development for the purpose of the following may be carried out on land within Zone 1 (e) without development consent:
• agriculture; environmental conservation; home occupations.
Development that is not included in subclause (3), (5) or (6) may be carried out on land within Zone 1 (e) only with development consent and only where the development is consistent with the future use identified for the land on the Zoning Map.
Development for the purpose of the following may be carried out on land within Zone 1 (e) only with development consent and only after advertising in accordance with clause 20 (2):
