[4] Clause 15 Planning principles of regional significance for Precincts
Insert after Part 2 of the Table:
| ||
| Role and land use activities | ||
| Development should reinforce and complement the role of the Precinct as a major inner-harbour port and maritime location. Development should recognise that the port operates for 24 hours of the day and that the generation of noise, lighting and traffic movement is necessarily associated with its operation. | ||
| Development in the Precinct is to provide for a mixture of commercial port, port-related, employment, waterfront and recreational uses, but is not to include residential development. The existing diversity and maritime character of the Precinct, particularly the mixed use of waterfront areas, should be retained. | ||
| Development is to take full advantage of the Precinct’s location and its infrastructure, particularly rail or light rail facilities, for the port and other employment generating activities. | ||
| Development is to encourage the environmental rejuvenation of the Precinct. Where possible, future development is to encourage the segregation of port traffic from residential and recreational areas. | ||
| Development is to make efficient use of surplus government owned land. | ||
| Development is to encourage the conservation of and adaptation for re-use of existing heritage items and structures for uses compatible with new development. | ||
| Development is to contribute to improved water quality in Rozelle Bay and Blackwattle Bay. | ||
| Development is to make a significant contribution to ecological sustainability by the use of efficient management and design practices. |
1997 No 622
Sydney Regional Environmental Plan No 26—City West (Amendment No 7—Bays Precinct)
| Amendments | Schedule 1 |
Development on the waterfront and on land adjoining Rozelle Bay and Blackwattle Bay is to enhance the environmental quality of those areas for all users.
Urban design
Design principles to be developed in detailed planning should recognise the working industrial nature of the Precinct in close proximity to residential areas.
Development along the Precinct boundary should relate to and not adversely affect the adjoining street systems and built forms.
The siting and form of development in all areas must consider impacts on views from within the Precinct and to and across the Precinct from surrounding areas.
Public domain
Public recreation areas are to provide for a range of recreational opportunities for those working in and visiting the Precinct.
The siting and form of development must consider creating, retaining and enhancing views and vistas from the water and public domain.
Links for pedestrians, cyclists, and persons with disabilities are to be provided through the Precinct and to link and integrate the Precinct with adjoining areas.
Links through the Precinct, including public access to the foreshores, should recognise the safety and security issues associated with commercial port and maritime activities.
Development should help to create a high quality public domain in the Precinct.
Master plans for all areas should identify opportunities for public recreation, public access through sites and links to adjoining pedestrian and cyclist networks.
