Public Exhibition of Corrections to a number of Minor Anomalies within the Wollongong LEP 2009

The Wollongong Local Environmental Plan 2009 came into force on 26 February 2010. A few minor anomalies were found within the report requiring correction and certain provision required updating. These anomalies include correction to street address, spelling, definition of terminology updated and minor rezoning of two sites and amendment to the land use tables.

These proposed amendments to the Wollongong Local Environmental Plan 2009 include:

Part of 5-9 Molloy Street, Bulli – rezone to B2, amend floor space ratio to 1.5:1 and remove the minimum lot size from the Minimum Lot Size Map.
Lot 107, DP 751299 Cliff Road, Wollongong – rezone to RE1 to reflect property boundaries, remove the floor space ratio from the Floor Space Ratio Map, remove the minimum lot size from the Minimum Lot Size Map and remove building height controls.
Amend the Land Use table by inserting home-based childcare as being permissible with development consent in the RU2, RU4, R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, B1, E3 and E4 zones.
Clause 4.1 Minimum Lot Size be amended to allow lots containing split zones to be subdivided along the minimum lot size boundary, or that any residual land be excluded from the minimum lot size requirements.
Clause 7.9 Development in Flight Paths be amended to reflect the Department of Planning current model clause “Airspace Operations”.
Schedule 1 Additional Use, item I to be amended by correcting the spelling of “Buttershaw” Drive to “Buttenshaw” Drive.
