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(Repealed)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plans and deemed environmental planning instruments applying only to the land to which this Plan applies are repealed.
The following local environmental plans are repealed under this provision—
• Warringah Local Environmental Plan 2000 (Classification and Reclassification of Public Land)
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.
An amendment made to this plan by Mosman Local Environmental Plan Amendment (Exempt and Complying Development Codes and Housing—Dual Occupancies) 2025 does not apply to a development application made, but not finally determined, before the commencement of the amendment.
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 RU4 Primary Production Small Lots
• Residential Zones R2 Low Density Residential
R3 Medium Density Residential
• Employment Zones E1 Local Centre
E2 Commercial Centre
E3 Productivity Support
E4 General Industrial
• Mixed Use Zones MU1 Mixed Use
• Special Purpose Zones SP1 Special Activities
SP2 Infrastructure
SP4 Enterprise
• 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 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 52 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.

This clause applies to a subdivision of any land shown on the Lot Size Map that requires development consent and that is carried out after the commencement of this Plan.
The size of any lot resulting from a subdivision of land to which this clause applies is not to be less than the minimum size shown on the Lot Size Map in relation to that land.
For the purposes of subclause (3), in calculating the size of a lot the area of any access corridor (including any right of carriageway, access way or other area that provides for vehicle access) is to be excluded, whether the access corridor is to be created or is in existence at the time of the application for development consent for the subdivision.
This clause does not apply in relation to the subdivision of any land—
(a) by the registration of a strata plan or strata plan of subdivision under the Strata Schemes Development Act 2015, or
(b) by any kind of subdivision under the Community Land Development Act 2021.
The objectives of this clause are as follows—
(a) to ensure that land to which this clause applies is not fragmented by subdivisions that would create additional dwelling entitlements.
This clause applies to a subdivision (being a subdivision that requires development consent) under the Community Land Development Act 2021 of land in any of the following zones—
(a) Zone RU4 Primary Production Small Lots,
(b) Zone C3 Environmental Management,
(c) Zone C4 Environmental Living,
but does not apply to a subdivision by the registration of a strata plan.
The size of any lot resulting from a subdivision of land to which this clause applies (other than any lot comprising association property within the meaning of the Community Land Development Act 2021) is not to be less than the minimum size shown on the Lot Size Map in relation to that land.
This clause applies despite clause 4.1.
The objectives of this clause are as follows—
(a) to establish a minimum lot size for dual occupancies in Zone R2,
(b) to achieve planned residential density in Zone R2,
(c) to ensure lots are large enough to accommodate dual occupancies in a way that provides a high level of residential amenity,
(d) to minimise any adverse impacts of development on the amenity of the area.
This clause applies to land in Zone R2 Low Density Residential.
Development consent must not be granted to the erection of dual occupancies unless the development is on a lot that is at least 800m
The objectives of this clause are as follows—
(a) to establish a minimum subdivision lot size for dual occupancies in Zone R2,
(b) to achieve planned residential density in Zone R2,
(c) to ensure lots are large enough to accommodate dual occupancies that provide a high level of residential amenity,
(d) to minimise any adverse impacts of development on the amenity of the area.
This clause applies to land in Zone R2 Low Density Residential.
Despite clause 4.1, development consent may be granted to the subdivision of land to which this clause applies if the consent authority is satisfied that there is an existing dual occupancy on the land that was lawfully erected.
Subclause (3) does not apply unless each lot resulting from the subdivision will—
(a) be at least 400m
2 , and(b) have only one dwelling located on the lot.
If the lot is a battle-axe lot or has an access handle, the area of the access handle is not included in calculating the size of the lot under subclause (4).
The objective of this clause is to provide flexibility in the application of standards for subdivision in rural zones to allow land owners a greater chance to achieve the objectives for development in the relevant zone.
This clause applies to the following rural zones—
(a) Zone RU1 Primary Production,
(b) Zone RU2 Rural Landscape,
(baa) Zone RU3 Forestry,
(c) Zone RU4 Primary Production Small Lots,
(d) Zone RU6 Transition.
When this Plan was made it did not contain Zone RU1 Primary Production, Zone RU2 Rural Landscape or Zone RU6 Transition.
Land in a zone to which this clause applies may, with development consent, be subdivided for the purpose of primary production to create a lot of a size that is less than the minimum size shown on the Lot Size Map in relation to that land.
However, such a lot cannot be created if an existing dwelling would, as the result of the subdivision, be situated on the lot.
A dwelling cannot be erected on such a lot.
A dwelling includes a rural worker’s dwelling (see definition of that term in the Dictionary).
The objective of this clause is to ensure that land to which this clause applies is not fragmented by subdivisions that would create additional dwelling entitlements.
This clause applies to land in the following zones that is used, or proposed to be used, for residential accommodation or tourist and visitor accommodation—
(a) Zone RU4 Primary Production Small Lots,
(b) Zone C3 Environmental Management,
(c) Zone C4 Environmental Living.
Development consent must not be granted for the subdivision of a lot to which this clause applies under a strata plan that would create lots below the minimum size shown on the Lot Size Map for that lot.
The objectives of this clause are as follows—
(a) to ensure that buildings are compatible with the height and scale of surrounding and nearby development,
(b) to minimise visual impact, disruption of views, loss of privacy and loss of solar access,
(c) to minimise any adverse impact of development on the scenic quality of Warringah’s coastal and bush environments,
(d) to manage the visual impact of development when viewed from public places such as parks and reserves, roads and community facilities.
The height of a building on any land is not to exceed the maximum height shown for the land on the Height of Buildings Map.
If the Height of Buildings Map specifies, in relation to any land shown on that map, a Reduced Level for any building on that land, any such building is not to exceed the specified Reduced Level.
The objectives of this clause are as follows—
(a) to limit the intensity of development and associated traffic generation so that they are commensurate with the capacity of existing and planned infrastructure, including transport infrastructure,
(b) to provide sufficient floor space to meet anticipated development needs for the foreseeable future,
(c) to ensure that buildings, by virtue of their bulk and scale, are consistent with the desired character of the locality,
(d) to manage the visual impact of development when viewed from public spaces,
(e) to maximise solar access and amenity for public areas.
The maximum floor space ratio for a building on any land is not to exceed the floor space ratio shown for the land on the Floor Space Ratio Map.
The objectives of this clause are as follows—
(a) to define
floor space ratio ,(b) to set out rules for the calculation of the site area of development for the purpose of applying permitted floor space ratios, including rules to—
(i) prevent the inclusion in the site area of an area that has no significant development being carried out on it, and
(ii) prevent the inclusion in the site area of an area that has already been included as part of a site area to maximise floor space area in another building, and
(iii) require community land and public places to be dealt with separately.
The
In determining the site area of proposed development for the purpose of applying a floor space ratio, the
(a) if the proposed development is to be carried out on only one lot, the area of that lot, or
(b) if the proposed development is to be carried out on 2 or more lots, the area of any lot on which the development is proposed to be carried out that has at least one common boundary with another lot on which the development is being carried out.
In addition, subclauses (4)–(7) apply to the calculation of site area for the purposes of applying a floor space ratio to proposed development.
The following land must be excluded from the site area—
(a) land on which the proposed development is prohibited, whether under this Plan or any other law,
(b) community land or a public place (except as provided by subclause (7)).
The area of a lot that is wholly or partly on top of another or others in a strata subdivision is to be included in the calculation of the site area only to the extent that it does not overlap with another lot already included in the site area calculation.
The site area for proposed development must not include a lot additional to a lot or lots on which the development is being carried out unless the proposed development includes significant development on that additional lot.
For the purpose of applying a floor space ratio to any proposed development on, above or below community land or a public place, the site area must only include an area that is on, above or below that community land or public place, and is occupied or physically affected by the proposed development, and may not include any other area on which the proposed development is to be carried out.
The gross floor area of any existing or proposed buildings within the vertical projection (above or below ground) of the boundaries of a site is to be included in the calculation of the total floor space for the purposes of applying a floor space ratio, whether or not the proposed development relates to all of the buildings.
When development consent is granted to development on a site comprised of 2 or more lots, a condition of the consent may require a covenant to be registered that prevents the creation of floor area on a lot (the restricted lot) if the consent authority is satisfied that an equivalent quantity of floor area will be created on another lot only because the site included the restricted lot.
If—
(a) a covenant of the kind referred to in subclause (9) applies to any land (
affected land ), and(b) proposed development relates to the affected land and other land that together comprise the site of the proposed development,
the maximum amount of floor area allowed on the other land by the floor space ratio fixed for the site by this Plan is reduced by the quantity of floor space area the covenant prevents being created on the affected land.
In this clause,
The objectives of this clause are as follows—
(a) to provide an appropriate degree of flexibility in applying certain development standards to particular development,
(b) to achieve better outcomes for and from development by allowing flexibility in particular circumstances.
Development consent may, subject to this clause, be granted for development even though the development would contravene a development standard imposed by this or any other environmental planning instrument. However, this clause does not apply to a development standard that is expressly excluded from the operation of this clause.
Development consent must not be granted to development that contravenes a development standard unless the consent authority is satisfied the applicant has demonstrated that—
(a) compliance with the development standard is unreasonable or unnecessary in the circumstances, and
(b) there are sufficient environmental planning grounds to justify the contravention of the development standard.
The Environmental Planning and Assessment Regulation 2021 requires a development application for development that proposes to contravene a development standard to be accompanied by a document setting out the grounds on which the applicant seeks to demonstrate the matters in paragraphs (a) and (b).
The consent authority must keep a record of its assessment carried out under subclause (3).
(Repealed)
Development consent must not be granted under this clause for a subdivision of land in Zone RU1 Primary Production, Zone RU2 Rural Landscape, Zone RU3 Forestry, Zone RU4 Primary Production Small Lots, Zone RU6 Transition, Zone R5 Large Lot Residential, Zone C2 Environmental Conservation, Zone C3 Environmental Management or Zone C4 Environmental Living if—
(a) the subdivision will result in 2 or more lots of less than the minimum area specified for such lots by a development standard, or
(b) the subdivision will result in at least one lot that is less than 90% of the minimum area specified for such a lot by a development standard.
When this Plan was made it did not contain Zone RU1 Primary Production, Zone RU2 Rural Landscape, Zone RU3 Forestry, Zone RU6 Transition or Zone R5 Large Lot Residential.
(Repealed)
This clause does not allow development consent to be granted for development that would contravene any of the following—
(a) a development standard for complying development,
(b) a development standard that arises, under the regulations under the Act, in connection with a commitment set out in a BASIX certificate for a building to which State Environmental Planning Policy (Building Sustainability Index: BASIX) 2004 applies or for the land on which such a building is situated,
(ba) clause 4.4, to the extent that it applies to land identified on the Key Sites Map as Site F, Site G, Site H or Site I,
(c) clause 5.4,
(caa) clause 5.5.
(d) (Repealed)
Also, this clause does not allow development consent to be granted for development that would contravene a development standard for the maximum height of a building shown on the Height of Buildings Map on land shown on the Centres Map as the Dee Why Town Centre.
Despite subclause (8A), development on Site C or Site E may exceed the maximum height of building shown on the Height of Buildings Map if the maximum height is allowable under clause 7.14.
The objective of this clause is to identify, for the purposes of section 3.15 of the Act, the authority of the State that will be the relevant authority to acquire land reserved for certain public purposes if the land is required to be acquired under Division 3 of Part 2 of the Land Acquisition (Just Terms Compensation) Act
1991 (
If the landholder will suffer hardship if there is any delay in the land being acquired by the relevant authority, section 23 of the Land Acquisition (Just Terms Compensation) Act 1991 requires the authority to acquire the land.
The authority of the State that will be the relevant authority to acquire land, if the land is required to be acquired under the owner-initiated acquisition provisions, is the authority of the State specified below in relation to the land shown on the Land Reservation Acquisition Map (or, if an authority of the State is not specified in relation to land required to be so acquired, the authority designated or determined under those provisions).
Type of land shown on Map | Authority of the State |
Zone RE1 Public Recreation and marked “Local open space” | Council |
Zone RE1 Public Recreation and marked “Regional open space” | The corporation constituted under section 2.5 of the Act |
Zone SP2 Infrastructure and marked “Classified road” | Transport for NSW |
Zone C1 National Parks and Nature Reserves and marked “National Park” | Minister administering the National Parks and Wildlife Act 1974 |
Zone R2 Low Density Residential and marked “Local road” | Council |
Development on land acquired by an authority of the State under the owner-initiated acquisition provisions may, before it is used for the purpose for which it is reserved, be carried out, with development consent, for any purpose.
If land, other than land specified in the Table to subclause (2), is required to be acquired under the owner-initiated acquisition provisions, the Minister for Planning and Infrastructure is required to take action to enable the designation of the acquiring authority under this clause. Pending the designation of the acquiring authority for that land, the acquiring authority is to be the authority determined by order of the Minister for Planning and Infrastructure (see section 21 of the Land Acquisition (Just Terms Compensation) Act 1991).
The objective of this clause is to limit development on certain land intended to be acquired for a public purpose.
This clause applies to land shown on the Land Reservation Acquisition Map and specified in Column 1 of the Table to this clause and that has not been acquired by the authority of the State specified for that land in clause 5.1.
Development consent must not be granted to any development on land to which this clause applies other than development for a purpose specified opposite that land in Column 2 of the Table.
Column 1 | Column 2 |
Land | Development |
Zone RE1 Public Recreation and marked “Local open space” | Earthworks; Recreation areas |
Zone RE1 Public Recreation and marked “Regional open space” | Earthworks; Recreation areas |

The objective of this clause is to enable the Council to classify or reclassify public land as “operational land” or “community land” in accordance with Part 2 of Chapter 6 of the Local Government Act 1993.
Under the Local Government Act 1993, “public land” is generally land vested in or under the control of a council (other than roads and certain Crown land). The classification or reclassification of public land may also be made by a resolution of the Council under section 31, 32 or 33 of the Local Government Act 1993. Section 30 of that Act enables this Plan to discharge trusts on which public reserves are held if the land is reclassified under this Plan as operational land.
The public land described in Part 1 or Part 2 of Schedule 4 is classified, or reclassified, as operational land for the purposes of the Local Government Act 1993.
The public land described in Part 3 of Schedule 4 is classified, or reclassified, as community land for the purposes of the Local Government Act 1993.
The public land described in Part 1 of Schedule 4—
(a) does not cease to be a public reserve to the extent (if any) that it is a public reserve, and
(b) continues to be affected by any trusts, estates, interests, dedications, conditions, restrictions or covenants that affected the land before its classification, or reclassification, as operational land.
The public land described in Part 2 of Schedule 4, to the extent (if any) that it is a public reserve, ceases to be a public reserve when the description of the land is inserted into that Part and is discharged from all trusts, estates, interests, dedications, conditions, restrictions and covenants affecting the land or any part of the land, except—
(a) those (if any) specified for the land in Column 3 of Part 2 of Schedule 4, and
(b) any reservations that except land out of the Crown grant relating to the land, and
(c) reservations of minerals (within the meaning of the Crown Land Management Act 2016).
In accordance with section 30(2) of the Local Government Act 1993, the approval of the Governor to subclause (5) applying to the public land concerned is required before the description of the land is inserted in Part 2 of Schedule 4.
The objective of this clause is to provide flexibility where the investigation of a site and its surroundings reveals that a use allowed on the other side of a zone boundary would enable a more logical and appropriate development of the site and be compatible with the planning objectives and land uses for the adjoining zone.
This clause applies to so much of any land that is within the relevant distance of a boundary between any 2 zones. The relevant distance is 10 metres.
This clause does not apply to—
(a) land in Zone RE1 Public Recreation, Zone C1 National Parks and Nature Reserves, Zone C2 Environmental Conservation, Zone C3 Environmental Management or Zone W1 Natural Waterways, or

(b) land within the coastal zone, or
(c) land proposed to be developed for the purpose of sex services or restricted premises.
Despite the provisions of this Plan relating to the purposes for which development may be carried out, development consent may be granted to development of land to which this clause applies for any purpose that may be carried out in the adjoining zone, but only if the consent authority is satisfied that—
(a) the development is not inconsistent with the objectives for development in both zones, and
(b) the carrying out of the development is desirable due to compatible land use planning, infrastructure capacity and other planning principles relating to the efficient and timely development of land.
This clause does not prescribe a development standard that may be varied under this Plan.
If development for the purposes of bed and breakfast accommodation is permitted under this Plan, the accommodation that is provided to guests must consist of no more than 3 bedrooms.
Any such development that provides for a certain number of guests or rooms may involve a change in the class of building under the Building Code of Australia.
If development for the purposes of a home business is permitted under this Plan, the carrying on of the business must not involve the use of more than 50 square metres of floor area.
If development for the purposes of a home industry is permitted under this Plan, the carrying on of the home industry must not involve the use of more than 50 square metres of floor area.
If development for the purposes of an industrial retail outlet is permitted under this Plan, the retail floor area must not exceed—
(a) 33% of the gross floor area of the industry or rural industry located on the same land as the retail outlet, or
