                                               Reconfiguring of a Lot – Boundary Realignment (2 Lots into 2 Lots)

                                                          81 Hamersley Lane, Lake Macdonald – Lot 6 RP203483



3.0       PROPOSAL
3.1       Development Overview

This development application is for a development permit for reconfiguring of a lot –
boundary realignment (2 lots into 2 lots).

The proposed development involves rearranging the boundaries on these two
properties for improved farm operation and land management. It will result in the
expansion of the usable and productive grazing areas on Lot 6 and despite the transfer
of this land from Lot 5, the overall rural productive capacity will not be reduced.

Furthermore, the realigned boundaries of these lots will mean an improved
environmental outcome with the watercourse and associated riparian vegetation
contained entirely on the ‘new’ Lot 6.

Refer to Appendix 1 - Proposal Plan ZA10731.P02

Existing Easement B on SP203483 (burdening Lot 5) will be surrendered and a new
Easement C will be created to ensure access rights for the ‘new’ Lot 6 via Hamersley
Lane over the ‘new’ Lot 5.

A summary of the proposed lot arrangement is provided below:

3.2       Services

All lots will continue to be provided with electricity and communications services. It is
proposed to alter existing electricity connection to Lot 5 to ensure it is fully contained
within the boundaries of the ‘new’ lot 5.



3.3       Operational Works

No operational works are required to undertake the realignment of boundaries.



Figures 5 and 6 show the approximate location of the new boundary between the lots.
