The subject proposal in effect has three components.1. To rezone approximately 2 ha of land currently progressing as part of draft Great Lakes LEP Amendment No 82 (previously known as Amendment No 13 where it is proposed to be zoned 7 (a1) Environmental Protection, to 5(a) Special Uses Caravan Park, to enable the future expansion of the caravan park to facilitate the dedication of approximately 60 ha of land to National Park;2. to zone approximately 15.8 ha of land on the western side of The Lakes Way from 7(a) Wetlands and Littoral Rainforest Zone to 7(a1) Environmental Protection; and 3. to retain a small portion of the proposed 7(a1) land (approximately 1 ha) on the western side of The Lakes Way, containing an approved and commenced dwelling site, in private ownership. Draft LEP Amendment 82 is with the Department and it is anticipated that it will be made in the near future. The land that is the subject of this proposal was to be included as part of this Amendment. However at that time a change of ownership and failure to reach a suitable negotiated development / conservation agreement resulted in the land being rezoned to 7(a1) Environmental Protection, to reflect its demonstrated environmental value.A Planning Agreement will be executed between Council, the landowner and the Minister for the Environment to ensure the conservation land is dedicated for environmental conservation purposes.
