2.1. Background
A development approval to Reconfigure 1 lot into 2 lots (REC14/0005) was issued on 4 July 2014.
An application to extend the currency period of this approval was approved on 27 September 2018
extending the currency period to 25 September 2020. An application to further extend the currency
period was approved on 18 September 2020 to 25 March 2023, which included the first 6 month
extension for an applicable event under section 275R (applicable event – Covid 19) of the Planning
Act 2016. This ROL approval remains current due to the further Covid extensions (18 months) and
if enacted, would permit the proposed bulk trade store to be located on a separate lot to the existing
Bunnings store. Figure 5 provides a plan of the approved subdivision layout.
A pre-lodgement meeting was held with the applicant regarding the proposed bulk trade store. At
this meeting concerns were raised that the proposal constituted an expansion of the existing
Bunnings store and an Other Change - impact assessable application, ought to be lodged. A
number of design requirements were also discussed including, car parking, building and landscape
setbacks, building height, building articulation and finishes. These issues as well as stormwater
were similarly raised in the information request to the applicant.
