DRAFT AMENDMENTS TO SMALL LOT HOUSING PROVISIONS (CLAUSE 4.1B OF THE HILLS LOCAL ENVIRONMENTAL PLAN 2012) APPLYING TO THE R3 MEDIUM DENSITY RESIDENTIAL ZONE AND R4 HIGH DENSITY RESIDENTIAL ZONE (13/2018/PLP) Council has received a Gateway Determination to proceed with a planning
proposal affecting all R3 Medium Density Residential and R4 High Density Residential land within the Hills Shire (excluding North Kellyville and Box Hill Growth Centre Precincts). The planning proposal seeks to amend Clause 4.1B ‘Exceptions to minimum lot sizes for certain residential development’
of The Hills Local Environmental Plan 2012 as follows:
• Introduce a minimum parent lot size of 1,800 square metres for development under Clause 4.1B (this is the minimum site area that would be required to undertake a small lot housing or terrace development under Clause 4.1B);
• Introduce a new subclause allowing flexibility in certain instances where lots are not able to meet the parent lot size; and
• Introduce a new minimum lot size of 180 square metres for lots resulting from subdivision for terraces, where rear lane access is provided.
The amendments seek to ensure that ‘small lot housing’ development sites are of a sufficient size to enable high quality urban design outcomes and incentivise the implementation of rear lane access to improve streetscape and public domain outcomes.
Currently, there is no Development Control Plan which guides development outcomes for small lot housing under Clause 4.1B, except where controls are included within individual site-specific Development Control Plans.
In association with the planning proposal, the following draft Development Control Plans have been prepared to guide future small lot housing and terrace-style developments:
• Part F Small Lot Housing (Integrated Housing); and
• Part G Medium Density Residential (Terraces).
While the planning proposal and draft Development Control Plans relate to a form of ‘medium density housing’, it is noted that this proposal is unrelated to the NSW Government’s Low Rise Medium Density Housing Code.
The planning proposal and draft Development Control Plans are now on exhibition and available for inspection at the following locations:
• Council’s website:
www.thehills.nsw.gov.au under Major Plans on Exhibition.
• Council’s Customer Service Centre 3 Columbia Court, Norwest (Monday–Friday: 8.30am–4.30pm);

PUBLIC NOTICES
EXHIBITION OF DRAFT VOLUNTARY PLANNING AGREEMENT FOR LAND AT 6–12 & 16–20 GARTHOWEN CRESCENT, CASTLE HILL (24/2016/PLP) At its meeting of 22 October 2019, Council considered a draft Voluntary Planning Agreement (VPA) which relates to future development of land at 6–12 and 16–20 Garthowen Crescent, Castle Hill. Council resolved to publicly exhibit the draft VPA.
The draft VPA specifies a monetary contribution rate payable towards future infrastructure in association with each dwelling achieved on the site as part of future development.
The monetary contribution rates specified within the draft VPA are based on those established within draft Contributions Plan No. 17 – Castle Hill North Precinct (‘CP17’).
As draft CP17 has not yet been finalised, the draft VPA will essentially duplicate the function of the Contributions Plan and secure a fair and reasonable contribution towards local infrastructure and regional traffic infrastructure upgrades.
On 28 May 2019, Council resolved to finalise the planning proposal which will facilitate a high density residential development on the site. The planning proposal is currently undergoing the finalisation process and is not the subject of this public exhibition.
The draft VPA, Explanatory Note and supporting material are available for inspection at the following locations:
• Council’s website: www.thehills.nsw.gov.au under Major Plans on Exhibition;
• Council’s Customer Service Centre 3 Columbia Court, Norwest (Monday–Friday: 8.30am–4.30pm);
• Castle Hill Library
Corner of Castle and Pennant Streets, Castle Hill (Monday–Friday: 9.30am–8pm; Saturday: 9.30am–5pm;
Sunday: 1pm–5pm).
Public Exhibition Period: Tuesday, 29 October 2019 to Friday, 29 November 2019.
Submission Deadline: Friday, 29 November 2019.
Enquiries: Laura Moran, Town Planner on 9843 0581.
PLANNING PROPOSAL TO RECLASSIFY 15Z NELSON ROAD, BOX HILL FROM
‘COMMUNITY’ TO ‘OPERATIONAL’ LAND (10/2019/PLP)
A planning proposal to amend Appendix 11 of the State Environmental Planning Policy (Sydney Region Growth Centres) 2006 to reclassify 15Z Nelson Road, Box Hill (Lot 1, DP 136174) from ‘community’ to ‘operational’ land in accordance with the Local Government Act 1993 is currently on exhibition. A Gateway Determination has been issued by the Department of Planning, Industry and Environment which enables the proposal to proceed to public exhibition.
The purpose of the proposed reclassification of the land is to enable the potential sale of the site. Reclassification and sale of the site would enable the land to be incorporated into the redevelopment of the Nelson Road Village Centre and would promote orderly development at this location.
Following the completion of the public exhibition period, a public hearing will also be held with respect to this planning proposal and notification of this will be given in the local newspaper 21 days prior to the date of the public hearing.
The planning proposal and associated material is now on exhibition and available for inspection at the following locations:
• Council’s website: www.thehills.nsw.gov.au under Major Plans on Exhibition;
• Council’s Customer Service Centre 3 Columbia Court, Norwest (Monday–Friday: 8.30am–4.30pm);
• Vinegar Hill Memorial Library
29 Main Street, Rouse Hill Town Centre, Rouse Hill (Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday: 9.30am–6pm;
Thursday: 9.30am–9pm; Saturday: 9.30am–5pm; Sunday: 1pm–5pm).
Delegation for making of the amendment has not been issued to Council under the Gateway Determination.
Public Exhibition Period: Tuesday, 29 October 2019 to Friday, 29 November 2019.
