Draft Voluntary Planning Agreement - Lot 87 DP 1040092, 219 Bells Line of Road, North Richmond
Consultation has concluded
Council is exhibiting a draft Voluntary Planning Agreement (draft VPA) that will apply to Lot 87 DP 1040092, 219 Bells Line of Road, North Richmond (the subject site).
The draft VPA is complementary to a proposed amendment to Hawkesbury Local Environmental Plan 2012 which will enable a minimum lot size of not less than 4ha for the northern part of the subject site immediately north of Redbank Road to permit the subdivision of the subject site into two large rural housing lots and remain as two separate lots in its current form.
The objective, nature and effect of the draft VPA is for the developer to provide Council with a cash contribution of $30,000 for the additional housing lot created. 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.
The draft VPA, an Explanatory Note and other supporting documentation are on public exhibition 8.30am to 5.00pm Monday to Friday at the Council offices, 366 George Street, Windsor for the period Friday 20 April 2018 to Monday 21 May 2018 and can be viewed on Council’s website at http://www.hawkesbury.nsw.gov.au/development/development-information/planning-policies/planning-agreements/draft-voluntary-planning-agreements or on Council’s online community engagement site www.yourhawkesbury-yoursay.com.au.
