“We are all suffering already because of the
substation in Elizabeth Street, Granville. I purchased the premises at 116
Elizabeth Street, Granville because townhouses were permitted in the street
under zoning 2B but under the proposed new Draft LEP, only houses are
permitted in the street and not townhouses.
This along with the presence of the substation will effect
the value of our property and accordingly, we wish the zoning to stay the
same.
I feel that due to the close proximity of the Granville
TAFE, more houses/units/townhouses are required in the area.
I ask that Council leave the zoning for Elizabeth Street,
Granville as it is.
I would also like to see Granville grow like Merrylands
and Auburn . My daughters and I have purchased a shop in South Street,
Granville and feel that this area can cope with more residents which will
also help local businesses.”

RESPONSE from Acting Manager Land Use and Transport
Planning, Ms Louise Kerr:-
“Thank you for your public forum statement and submissions
to the draft Parramatta Local Environmental Plan 2010.
The response to your submission is included on page 49,
Attachment 3 -- Table of Submissions in the report to Council tonight and is
outlined as follows:
Number 116 Elizabeth Street Granville and adjoining
properties in Elizabeth Street are currently zoned 2B Residential (medium density)
under Parramatta LEP 2001 and are proposed to be zoned R2 Low Density
Residential in draft Parramatta LEP 2010. Under the draft LEP, higher
density residential zonings are proposed to be located in close proximity of
centres identified in Council’s Residential Development Strategy (RDS). This
property does not meet the RDS criteria for higher density residential
development given that it is outside of the Granville RDS precinct. It is
therefore proposed to be zoned R2 Low Density Residential.”

“There is strong and widespread opposition by
local residents to this extraordinary proposal as evidenced by:-
- A petition to council by residents to reject this
proposal. This was delivered to council in July 2010. It had 67
signatures.
- Residents commissioning from Mr Nigel White of Planning
Direction Pty Ltd a report considering the proposal from basic town
planning principles. This has also been delivered to Council.
In light of this clearly expressed resistance, will
Council please hear what Mr Danny Jones has to say, on behalf of residents in
elaboration on his report.”

RESPONSE from Acting Manager Land Use and Transport
Planning, Ms Louise Kerr:-
“Thank you for your public forum statement and submissions
to the draft Parramatta Local Environmental Plan 2010.
The matter you refer to is specifically addressed in
Council’s detailed report (Attachment 1) Page 19. It is also acknowledged in
Attachment 3 – Table of submissions (Reference Number 614).
Draft Parramatta LEP 2010 proposes an RE2 Private
Recreation zone that best corresponds to the current zoning of Oatlands Golf
Course.
The submission to rezone part of Oatlands Golf Course for
residential development would represent a significant change in land use to
that currently permitted. The draft Parramatta LEP 2010 was not intended to
facilitate major rezonings. The appropriate process for pursuing the desired
zoning would be for the proponent to lodge a separate Planning Proposal. If
such a proposal is submitted to Council in the future, it would undergo a
process of community consultation.”

“Mr Lord
Mayor & Councillors
My name is Chris Young. I am
a Planning Consultant and the author of submissions 321,530,576,588 and 595
to the DLEP notification in respect of Place of Public Worship permissibility
and zoning in the LEP.
I have read the officers
report and on behalf of my clients support the officers recommendation that
Places of Public worship be permissible in R2 zones for the reasons stated in
the their report as sound planning principles.
Two other matters regarding
existing special uses zones and the proposed SP2 zones are considered to not
be satisfactorily addressed.
All surrounding Councils LEP
include as part of the template LEP SP1 zones which cater for the former special
uses of schools churches hospitals etc.
The most recently Gazetted
being Penrith LEP 2010 gazetted on 22nd September 2010 includes SP1 in the
LEP.
The objectives of the SP1
zone in the Template state;
·
To provide for special land
uses that are not provided for in other zones.
·
To provide for sites with
special natural characteristics that are not provided for in other zones.
·
To facilitate development
that is in keeping with the special characteristics of the site or its
existing or intended special use, and that minimises any adverse impacts on
surrounding land.
The exhibited scheme does
not include SP1 but does include SP2 and on a number of sites zone sites SP2
Educational Establishment and other uses.
Submission 321 Page 67 of
the summary table relates to 216 Pennant Hills Road being the site known as
the American International School.
The summary table
incorrectly refers to the submission being from the American School. It has
been owned by the MET College for some time and the submission was lodged by
me on their behalf.
This is a regional college
operating presently for educational and religious purposes as approved by
Council. The staff comment states that the American International School is
not considered regionally significant. For the present operators it is
regionally significant and is considered to be more significant than the Melrose Public School which is proposed by staff to be zoned SP2 educational establishment
in attachment 2 page 6 internal submission. We agree with the staff that this
is a sound planning recommendation.
We request Council to apply
the SP2 (educational Establishment and Place of Worship) zone if the more
appropriate SP1 zone cannot be included in the LEP to the site at 216 Pennant
Hills Road the FORMER American International School site.
The third matter relates to
the site at 15 Hughes Ave Ermington and 655 Victoria Road.
This site is proposed to be
zoned partly IN1 industrial and partly R2.
The site presently houses
the Principal Place of Worship for the Exclusive Brethren in Australia and
has worldwide significance and has more than 250 seats approved.
This site, based upon the
comments of 216 Pennant Hills Road above, is more than regionally significant
and under Councils DCP for Places of Public Worship immediately fails as
approval exists for more than the 250.
As Places of Public Worship
are permissible in Industrial zones then the present part of the site
proposed to be zoned car industrial would be in line with Councils concepts
of location but the site of the approved building and car park in proposed R2
zone would far exceed the DCP. Hence making the DCP redundant immediately.
To zone the whole site
Industrial would overcome the problem but make poor planning sense with
Industrial zoning intruding into the residential zoning of Hughes Ave.
The sound planning response
is to zone the whole site SP2 (Place of Worship). This appears to be the
planning principle underlying the Melrose Public School SP2 recommendation.
Again the proposed SP2
zoning of Melrose Public School is a clear example of these anomalies.
It is requested that Council
adopt a zoning of SP2 Educational Establishment and Place of Worship for 216
Pennant Hills Road Oatlands and SP2 Place of Worship for 655 Victoria Road
and 15 Hughes Avenue Ermington or alternatively that the matter of SP2 for
schools and places of worship be deferred from the present plan and a further
report be prepared for Council consideration.
Thank you.”

RESPONSE from Acting Manager Land Use and Transport
Planning, Ms Louise Kerr:-
“Thank you for your public statement and submissions to
the draft Parramatta Local Environmental Plan 2010
The responses to submission 588 and 321 are included on
page 43 and 75 respectively of Attachment 3 – Table of Submissions in the
report to Council tonight.
The draft Parramatta LEP has been prepared as a
comprehensive Standard LEP necessitating compliance with certain Department
of Planning policies. The application of the special use zone in the draft
LEP has been consistent with the Department of Planning’s direction for
zoning infrastructure, including educational establishments and places of
public worship.
It is recommended to Council tonight that Council consider
making Places of Public Worship permissible in the R2 Low Density Residential
zone. If Council agrees with this recommendation, then an R2 zone is a more
flexible zone than an SP2 Infrastructure zone for educational establishments
and places of public worship. This is also the approach required by the
Department of Planning.”

RESPONSE from Acting Manager Land Use and Transport Planning, Ms Louise Kerr:-
“Q1 Council’s Code of Meeting Practice (October 2008) states that
any person may submit a question, comment or statement to the Public Forum
session of Ordinary Council Meetings. These must be lodged prior to 4 p.m on
the Friday prior to the Council meeting. This deadline is in place to give
Council sufficient time to prepare a response to any questions/issues tabled.
Q2 Council resolved at its meeting of the 26 July 2010 to
install signs in appropriate locations to highlight the ramifications of
recent State Government legislative changes whereby some development can be
approved by authorities other than local Council’s.
Q3 Under Council’s Residential Development Strategy (RDS) the
Telopea Precinct on the eastern side of the Telopea Railway Station and also
serviced by bus routes, Waratah shops, Dundas community centre, library and
school is identified as a suitable location for increased residential
housing. This is reflected in the draft Parramatta LEP 2010 zonings for R4
High Density and R3 Medium Density Residential in proximity to these
facilities. Outside of this precinct, in less accessible locations, large
parts of Dundas Valley are proposed to be down zoned to R2 Low Density
Residential. This is consistent with Council’s RDS which considers comparative
accessibility of different locations.”
