Public Exhibition of the Voluntary Planning Agreement for 631 Bells Line of Road, Kurrajong
The current Hawkesbury Section 7.11 Plan does not apply to rural residential development in Kurrajong. Therefore, a Draft Voluntary Planning Agreement based on the Standard Voluntary Planning Agreement that has been utilised for other planning proposals within the Kurmond-Kurrajong Investigation Area has been prepared. This Standard Voluntary Planning Agreement has been reviewed by Council’s legal representatives. Council resolve to publicly exhibit the Draft Voluntary Planning Agreement for a minimum of 28 days, and report back to Council following public exhibition.
Council is exhibiting a Draft Voluntary Planning Agreement that will apply to Lot 1 DP 120436, 631 Bells Line of Road, Kurrajong.
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 three large rural residential lots with minimum lot sizes of 4Ha 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.
