MCU STA - 132 Solar Road - Planning Report

As illustrated in Figure 4, the subject site nor adjoining properties are not identified as land which is
suitable for agricultural production and thus are not affected by the Agricultural Land Conservation
Area (ALCA) overlay. As such, the proposed Short-term Accommodation use does not compromise
the rural productivity values of the land or adjoining lands. The Short-term Accommodation use is
to be located in the existing dwelling and no changes to the land or existing structures are
proposed.
