                         than to the chief executive, if there             the development to be referred to a referral agency nor
                         were no referral agencies for the                 additional matters prescribed by a regulation under
                         development application; or                       section 55(2).

Table 1 – ‘Minor change’ criteria (Schedule 2 - Dictionary)


The proposed change represents a minor change under Schedule 1 of the Development Assessment Rules, as the
outcome does not result in ‘substantially different’ development as outlined below.

 Substantially Different Criteria                              Response
 A change may be considered to result in a substantially different development if the proposed change:
     a) involves a new use                                     Complies – the change does not involve a new use
     b) results in the application applying to a new parcel Complies – the proposed change will not result in any
        of land; or                                            new parcels of land being included as part of the
                                                               application
     c) dramatically changes the built form in terms of        Complies – the proposed change does not involve any
        scale, bulk and appearance; or                         notable changes to the approved built form
     d) changes the ability of the proposed development Complies – the proposed change does not change the
        to operate as intended; or                             ability for the development to operate as intended
     e) removes a component that is integral to the            Complies – The proposed change does not remove a
        operation of the development; or                       component that is integral to the development
     f) significantly impacts on traffic flow and the          Complies – The proposed amendments will not result in
        transport network, such as increasing traffic to       any additional impacts not already addressed as part of
        the site; or                                           the original approval
     g) introduces new impacts or increase the severity of Complies – The proposed amendment will not result in
        known impacts; or                                      increased severity of known impacts.
     h) removes an incentive or offset component that          Complies – the proposed change does not remove any
        would have balanced a negative impact of the           incentive or offset component of the proposed
        development; or                                        development.
     i) impacts on infrastructure provisions.                  Complies – the proposed minor change does not result in
                                                               any adverse impacts on infrastructure provisions.
