Amendment C74 is Approved
The Minister for Planning has approved Amendment C74 to the Port Phillip Planning Scheme.
The amendment came into operation on Thursday 18th November 2009, being the date the Notice of Approval was published in the Victoria Government Gazette.
What is Amendment C74?
The amendment made minor updates and corrections to the Port Phillip Planning Scheme comprising the following:
1. Updated and corrected the Port Phillip Heritage Review, which is an incorporated document in the Port Phillip Planning Scheme. The changes involve correcting errors and updating the text and / or maps of 23 individual citations, the Statement of Significance for Heritage Overlay 3 and updating the heritage grading of 38 properties (as either ‘significant’, ‘contributory’ or ‘non-contributory’) on the City of Port Phillip Heritage Policy Map.
2. Two minor changes to the wording of the Design and Development Overlay provisions at Clause 43.02 (Schedule 18) which clarify but do not alter the intent of the control. Changes are as follows:
- DDO18-1 (Elwood Neighbourhood Activity Centre / Business 1 Zone) is amended to clarify that the setback requirement for balustrades does not apply where a balustrade is incorporated into the street wall and does not extend above a height of 10.5 metres.
- DDO18-2 (Residential Precinct / Residential 1 Zone) is amended to clarify that the front landscaped setbacks should not be used for car parking.
3. Changed the formatting of DDO18 and associated Planning Scheme Map 9DDO (Design and Development Overlay map) to remove a duplication in the clause relating to the two residential precincts by:
- Deleted DDO18-3 from Schedule 18 at Clause 43.02.
- Changed the reference on Map 9DDO, from DDO18-3 to DDO18-2 relating to properties between Pine Avenue and St Kilda Street, Elwood.
4. Updated references to the Port Phillip Heritage Review and City of Port Phillip Heritage Policy Map in Clauses 21.05, 22.01, 22.04 and schedule to Clause 81.01.
