The Department of Planning and Environment and Sydney Eastern City Planning Panel is currently exhibiting a Planning Proposal for 13-19A Marsh Street Arncliffe (also known as Cooks Cove) to enable commercial and trade-related enterprises and public open space at the location.



Planning Proposal: 13-19A Marsh Street Arncliffe (Cooks Cove)


What is a Planning Proposal?

A Planning Proposal can be used to amend a Local Environment Plan (LEP), rezone land so it can be used for a new purpose, or change the development standards that apply to the land.

A Planning Proposal explains the intended effect of a proposed LEP or proposed amendments to an LEP. It describes the intended outcomes and proposed LEP provisions, identifies and addresses the potential impacts that the changes may have, and provides justification for the making of the LEP.

A Planning Proposal is a key part of the LEP-making process because it describes how a new or amended LEP will ‘give effect’ to strategic and site-specific planning outcomes.


What is being proposed?

The Planning Proposal seeks to remove the sites at 13-19A Marsh Street Arncliffe from State Environmental Planning Policy (Precincts – Eastern Harbour City) 2021 and insert new site-specific planning provisions into the Bayside Local Environmental Plan 2021 to provide:

  • New SP4 Enterprise zone across the majority of the Kogarah Golf Course land to permit trade-related enterprises, commercial uses and logistics and warehouse uses;
  • New Public Recreation RE1 zoned land for the foreshore area of the site adjacent to the Cooks River and adjacent to Marsh Street;
  • SP2 Infrastructure zone to the existing Marsh Street Roadway and Arncliffe Permanent Motorway Facilities;
  • Maximum Building Height of RL51m;
  • Limit gross floor area (GFA) within different areas of the site to an aggregate of 342,000m2 and insert floor area requirements to achieve the intended logistics and warehousing outcomes for the site;
  • Reclassify Council owned Lot 14 DP213314 and Lot 1 DP108492 from ‘community’ to ‘operational’ land to facilitate local road access and the provision of infrastructure to support development within the SP4 Enterprise zone.
