ITEM 17

PL54/12 - Draft Hornsby Local Environmental Plan  - Review of Submissions  

 

 

Additional information with  CHANGE  to Recommendation

 

Group Manager’s Report No. PL54/12 concerning the review of submissions received in response to the public exhibition of the draft Hornsby Local Environmental Plan recommends that “Council endorse the draft Hornsby Local Environmental Plan for forwarding to the Department of Planning and Infrastructure for its making subject to amendments listed in Schedule A - Items 1.1 to 1.10 of Group Manager’s Report No. PL54/12”. 

 

A review of the wording of Items Nos. 1.3, 1.6a and 1.7c of “Schedule A - Recommendations to Progress Draft Hornsby LEP” has identified that they require clarification so that they are not misinterpreted and, in the case of Item 1.7, revision to remove a recommendation that is no longer necessary as the amendment was previously made and formed part of the exhibited draft Plan.

 

Accordingly, it is recommended that the wording of the Items be amended as follows, it being noted the additional words added are identified in italics and boldface and words to be removed are identified by strikethrough and bold face.

 

“1.3       The relevant Rural, Residential, Special Purpose and Environmental Protection Land Use Tables be amended to only permit “home based child care” with development consent where the use is currently permitted without development consent.”

 

“1.6       The Height of Building Map be amended by:

 

a.      Applying a 10.5m height limit to B5 Business Development and B6 Enterprise Corridor zoned lands which currently have a 8.5m height limit; and”

 

“1.7       The Environmental Heritage Schedule be amended:”

“c.     By amending the property reference for the “Waddell Ridge Group”, "Beecroft Railway Station and garden", and “Woodlands”, “Sutherland Road Bushland Reserve”, “Collingridge House”, “St Columbus Church and Grounds” and “Barker College” to apply to the correct lands; and”

 

An amended Schedule A incorporating the above changes is attached.

 

 

 

RECOMMENDATION

THAT

 

1.         Council endorse the draft Hornsby Local Environmental Plan for forwarding to the Department of Planning and Infrastructure for its making subject to amendments listed in Schedule A - Items 1.1 to 1.10 of Group Manager’s Report No. PL54/12.

ITEM 18

PL55/12 - Draft Hornsby Development Control Plan  - Review of Submissions

 

 

Additional information with  CHANGE  to Recommendation

 

Group Manager’s Report No. PL55/12 concerning the review of submissions received in response to the public exhibition of the draft Hornsby Development Control Plan recommends that “Council adopt the draft Hornsby Development Control Plan, subject to the amendments detailed in Schedule A of Group Manager’s Report No .PL55/12”

 

A review of “Schedule A - Proposed Amendments to Draft Hornsby Development Control Plan 2013” has identified that additional amendments should be made.  The amendments correlate with recommendations discussed within the body of the report relating to the removal of sunlight controls for the Florence Street Mall which conflict with the HLEP floor space provisions and clarify the tree and vegetation preservation provisions by specifying the criteria upon which an assessment of significance should be made to assist in determining whether to approve an application for removal of a tree and/or vegetation.

 

An amended Schedule A incorporating the above changes is attached.

 

 

 

RECOMMENDATION

THAT:

 

1.         Council adopt the draft Hornsby Development Control Plan, subject to the amendments detailed in Schedule A of Group Manager’s Report No.PL55/12.

 

2.         After the gazettal of the draft Hornsby Local Environmental Plan, notification be placed in the local newspapers to make the draft Hornsby Development Control Plan come into effect.

 

3.         The General Manager be authorised to make changes to the draft Hornsby Development Control Plan to correct minor errors, omissions, formatting or any other changes required to reflect changes made to the draft Hornsby Local Environmental Plan by Parliamentary Counsel and the Department of Planning and Infrastructure to satisfy legal drafting requirements.

 

4.         Should draft amendments to the NSW Housing Code be gazetted to ensure that a consistent street pattern is maintained, a review of the draft HDCP minimum lot width controls be undertaken and a report be presented to Council for its consideration.

 

5.         Submitters be advised of Council’s resolution in relation to this matter.

ITEM 7

EH12/12 - Report on Annual General Meetings - Community Centre Management Committees

 

 

Additional information with NO CHANGE to Recommendation

 

Following preparation of Group Manager’s Report No. EH12/12 which is to be considered at the 19 December 2012 General Meeting, further information including a profit and loss statement and balance sheet have been received from the Galston Community Centre Committee.

 

As a result the income and expenditure summary table included in Attachment 1 has been revised to include actual amounts rather than estimates as originally included (see attached).

 

It should also be noted that the net income figure for the Glenorie Community Centre contained an error and should read $1,506.12 rather than $1,596.00 as originally indicated.  This amount has also been updated in the revised income and expenditure summary table.

 

No change to the existing recommendation is proposed.

 

RECOMMENDATION

THAT staff continue to work to enhance the functioning of the volunteer management committees to ensure that appropriate governance standards are met.
