Dear Denis

I refer to Councils Information Request dated 21 December 2015. The following provides a response to
Planning items 1-2. Response to Engineering Items 4-19 are provided under separate cover. All responses to
the requested information are provided under 278(1)(a) of the Sustainable Planning Act 2009 (SPA).

PLANNING

1. Issue – Grounds to Overcome Planning Scheme Conflict

The development involves the retirement housing use on a Rural zoned allotment, with the use identified as
inconsistent within the zone. Grounds to support the proposal despite the conflict must be identified in
accordance with S326 of the Sustainable Planning Act. Grounds are included in the submitted planning report
but are not well articulated or supported.

Information Required

Provide summary grounds to support the development despite the conflict with the site’s partial Rural zoning.
The grounds should be provided in a format similar to what might be included in Council’s Decision Notice,
should it support the development.

Applicants Response.

Nature and Extent of Conflict

As noted above, the use is at variance with the Rural zone.
