and the site is located outside of a centre it is necessary to demonstrate that the proposed
retail elements will not impact on the hierarchy.

The various components of the proposal related to ‘retail’ & ‘commercial’ are the following:

      Entertainment and Dining Business Type 1 – Food & Beverages;
      Retail Business Type 2 – Shop & Salon;
      Retail Business Type 5 – Vehicle Uses; and
      Retail Business Type 6 – Hardware Store.

Whilst the Entertainment and Dining Business Type 1 – Food & Beverages and Retail Business
Type 2 – Shop & Salon are identified as inconsistent uses in the Industry Zone, the Retail
Business Type 5 – Vehicle Uses & Retail Business Type 6 – Hardware Store uses are consistent
and supported within the Industry Zone. As such, any potential conflict with the hierarchy of
centres and this DEO must be viewed in this context.

The proposal does not comprise uses with large components of retail/commercial areas. The
Retail Business Type 2 – Shop & Salon use is associated with the service station component
and (as confirmed with Council) relates to a minor component (approx. 4%) of total GFA.
Whilst Council consider this component to comprise its own specific use, it should be noted
that the operation, use and function of this part of the building will be primarily related to the
service station. The sale of retail goods is considered to be complimentary to and typical of a
modern service station.

Additionally, the proposal will comprise an Entertainment and Dining Business Type 1 – Food &
Beverages, which is anticipated to be related to a coffee/takeaway tenancy or best
described as a ‘tradie’s café’. This use comprises a total GFA of 137m2 which is not
considered significant in the context of the DEO.

The total combined GFA of retail/commercial is 246m 2. In terms of the overall proposed GFA
of the development, this represents approximately 9%, which is a minor and complimentary
component of the larger proposal.

The site is located outside the hierarchy of centres but is not quarantined by the planning
scheme for purely industrial uses. The site is envisaged for various retail uses under the
Industrial zoning including landscape yards, rural supplies, service stations, hardware stores
and various Type 5 uses including boat, truck and motor vehicle hire premises. Given the
above, and the minor nature of the retailing component, it is considered that the proposal is
able to sufficiently demonstrate compliance with the Commercial & Retail Uses DEO.

The Industrial Business Uses DEO is also considered to be of relevance to the proposed
development. The proposal has been assessed against the relevant item (vii) of the Industrial
Business Uses DEO, which reads:
