PLANNING & ENVIRONMENT COMMITTEE MEETING AGENDA                                      10 DECEMBER 2019




      Figure 8: Mary/Thomas Street Precinct only applies to 52 Mary Street (52 Mary Street highlighted)
Retail Business uses (including service station and shop) are identified as consistent within the
Business Centre Zone if not located in the Mary St/ Thomas St Precinct. Retail Business uses
are identified as inconsistent in the Mary/Thomas Street Precinct.
While Lot 21 has existing use rights for Retail Business Type 5 Vehicle Uses, the context of the
existing use differs from that currently proposed. Therefore, impact assessment of an
inconsistent use against the entire planning scheme, to the extent relevant, is required.
The development parameters table below summarises the key relevant aspects of the proposal.
