Project details
This planning proposal was subject to a rezoning review by the Sydney Eastern City Planning Panel which recommended it should proceed for consideration through the Gateway process.
The Department of Planning, Industry and Environment (DPIE) subsequently issued a Gateway determination for the planning proposal. Council is the Planning Proposal Authority (PPA) administering the public exhibition of the proposal but the Minister for Planning has not delegated the authority to Council to make the final plan.
Key features of the planning proposal
Proposed key changes to the current planning controls for this land in the Marrickville Local Environmental Plan (LEP) 2011 will:
- rezone the land from IN2 Light Industrial to B5 Business development, R4 High Density Residential RE1 Public Recreation and RE2 Private Recreation
- increase the maximum height of building ranging from: 9.5m to 32m
- increase maximum floor space ratio for the land ranging from: 0.6:1 to 3.3:1
- include additional local provisions relating to vehicular access, public infrastructure contributions and a sunset clause to reverse the proposed amendment if a Development Application is not submitted within 3 years.
