What is being proposed?

On 26 April 2023, Council endorsed a draft Planning Proposal (PP) to make amendments to the Bayside Local Environmental Plan 2021 to land zoned R3 Medium Density Residential to facilitate development of new homes.

What Will Change?

This proposal seeks to:

  • Increase the maximum Floor Space Ratio (FSR) from 0.6:1 to 0.7:1, and
  • Introduce a new provision stating that Clause 4.1 will not apply to the subdivision of land in Zone R3 on which the erection of Multi-Dwelling Housing or attached dwelling have been approved or proposed.

This proposal is part of Council’s efforts to meet the Department of Planning, Housing and Infrastructure’s requirement to update housing controls in line with the Local Housing Strategy (LHS).

The proposed amendments are expected to deliver capacity for hundreds of new dwellings within the Bayside LGA and contributes to the delivery of State and Commonwealth Government commitments under the National Housing Accord.

The Planning Proposal is now on public exhibition. You are invited to review the Planning Proposal and provide your feedback, you can read the council report on the planning proposal here.
