GENERAL COMMITTEE MEETING AGENDA                                                 13 SEPTEMBER 2021


On 20 February 2020, Council, at its Ordinary meeting resolved to refuse an application to
reconfigure 1 lot into 23 lots. As a result of Council’s decision to refuse the subdivision, the applicant
lodged an appeal to the Planning & Environment Court. During the course of the appeal a series of
without prejudice meetings were held with the applicant, which resulted in a negotiated settlement
on 3 September 2020 which allowed for the 1 into 23 lot reconfiguration to proceed subject to
conditions.
