6.0 STATUTORY ASSESSMENT
Minor Change
This assessment finds that the proposal constitutes a Minor Change in accordance with the Planning Act 2016, which defines a Minor Change
as, “a change to the approval that would not result in a substantially different development”.
The DA Rules state, “in determining whether the proposed change would result in substantially different development, the assessment
manager or referral agency must consider the individual circumstances of the development, in the context of the change proposed”, as
follows:
• The change does not result in a substantially different development, as the change does not:
(a) involve a new use; or
(b) result in the application applying to a new parcel of land; or
(c) dramatically change the built form in terms of scale, bulk and appearance; or
(d) change the ability of the proposed development to operate as intended; or
(e) remove a component that is integral to the operation of the development; or
(f) significantly impact on traffic flow and the transport network, such as increasing traffic to the site; or
(g) introduce new impacts or increase the severity of known impacts; or
(h) remove an incentive or offset component that would have balanced a negative impact of the development; or
(i) impact on infrastructure provisions.
• The change will not cause the approval to include prohibited development.
• The change does not trigger referral to a referral agency.
• The change does not trigger public notification.
On this basis, the application is considered to follow a lawful process in making a request in accordance with the Planning Act 2016.
Assessment
In accordance with Section 81 (4) and (5) of the Planning Act 2016, it states:
(4) The responsible entity must consider the statutory instrument, or other document, as in effect when the development application
for the development approval was properly made.
(5) However, the responsible entity may give the weight the responsible entity considers is appropriate, in the circumstances, to -
(a) the statutory instrument or other document as in effect when the change application was made; or
(b) if the statutory instrument or other document is amended or replaced after the change application is made but before it is
decided - the amended or replacement instrument or document; or
(c) another statutory instrument -
(i) that comes into effect after the change application is made but before it is decided; and
(ii) that the responsible entity would have been required to consider if the instrument had been in effect when the development
application for the development approval was properly made.
It is acknowledged that the original application was approved by Council on the 7 November 2002 in accordance with the Schedule to the
Planning Scheme, Originally Gazetted on the 15 December 1990 including amendments to 5 December 1997. The proposed Minor Change
does not materially change the use of the land for its approved intended purpose, being Duplex Dwelling, and as such, the proposed change
does not result in changes to the original approval that are more significant and substantially different to the original development
application that was assessed and approved by Council, to the relevant extent.
