Council is exhibiting a Draft Voluntary Planning Agreement that will apply to Lot 31 DP 7565, 457 Bells Line of Road, Kurmond.

The Draft Voluntary Planning Agreement is complementary to a proposed amendment to Hawkesbury Local Environmental Plan 2012 which will enable the subdivision of the subject site into four large rural residential lots with minimum lot sizes of not less than 4,000m2.

The objective, nature and effect of the Draft Voluntary Planning Agreement is for the developer to provide Council with a cash contribution of $30,000 for each additional residential lot created on the subject site. It is anticipated that contributions collected by Council will be expended on local and district infrastructure and facilities such as, but not necessarily limited to, cycleways, bus shelters, landscape and park embellishments and road improvements to serve the needs of the community as a consequence of the development.
