and road on the edge of the Cooroy township which is defined as the rural portion of the Shire’s
dominant industrial centre. In this regard, the proposal is consistent with Strategic Aim 27.5.3.4,
which commits Council to the provision of an adequate supply of appropriately located industrial
land. It is arguable that Council has designated sufficient land within the Cooroy township to
date for future industrial development (refer Section 6.1 of this report), and the proposed

development is seen a primary measure in ensuring this requirement is met.

The proposed development complies with Strategic Aim 27.5.3.5 in ensuring that industrial
development adheres to the Strategic Principles and Development Principles nominated in the
Strategic Plan. This is particularly evident in that the proposed development will remediate many
of the existing environmental issues on the site and will ensure that the quality of stormwater

discharged from the site is in accordance with Council’s water quality objectives.

Section 27.8.3 — Strategic Aims for Water Supply

The proposed development will incorporate a major stormwater quality management system to
ensure the water quality discharged into the drainage line downstream of the site is consistent
with the water quality objectives conveyed by Council officers for the site. The development site

is serviced by reticulated water in accordance with Strategic Aim 27.8.3.2.

Accordingly, the proposed development is deemed to comply with the relevant Strategic Aims

for the locality.

SCHEDULE TO THE PLANNING SCHEME

Zone

The land is currently included in the Rural Catchment Zone under the Schedule to the Planning
Scheme. Council’s scheme articulates that this zone includes the majority of lands within the
Lake Macdonald dam catchment area. Protection of the water supply source from intensive land
uses and subdivision is intended. Approvals for subdivision and approvals in accordance with
Section 2.2.1¢ will only be granted where it has been clearly established that detrimental effects

upon water quality will not arise.
