Draft Development Control Plan - Northwood Shops

Council is consulting with the community on an amendment to its Development Control Plan for the Northwood Shops.

On 20 May 2020, the land was rezoned by the State Government from B1 Neighbourhood Shops to B4 Mixed Use to permit a residential care facility (nursing home accommodation) with retail/medical on the ground floor level. The height and floor space ratio were revised down to 3 storeys above street level and 1.85:1 (inclusive of 0.35:1 to be provided for commercial floor space).

The draft development control plan (DCP) for the site aims to ensure that any future development application submitted reflects many of the concerns of residents and government agencies raised during previous consultations.
