4.2.4. OVERLAYS
Table J below identifies the overlays which have been applied to the land based on a review of City Plan mapping and provides a brief commentary regarding the effect
of each overlay on the level of assessment associated with the proposed development. A full assessment against the relevant overlay (Bushfire Hazard Overlay) is provided
in the Code Compliance Statements at Appendix H.
