Byron LEP 2014 - Tallowood Ridge, Mullumbimby

The purpose of the planning proposal is to rezone lots 93 & 94 DP1216681, Tallowood Ridge, Mullumbimby. The subject site also includes an unmade road that traverses north-south through Lot 94 and one that abuts it immediately to the south, for the following:1. provide for additional residential development. More specifically the following zone changes have been proposed; * Approximately 5ha of R2 Low Density Residential to RU2 Rural Landscape, * Approximately 5ha of RU1 Primary Production to RU2 Rural Landscape, * Approximately 3ha of RU1 Primary Production to RE1 Public Recreation, and * Approximately 12ha of RU1 Primary Production and RU2 Rural Landscape to R2 Low Density Residential (with a potential yield of approximately 65 lots based on 9 lots per hectare). 2. rezone other zones that apply to the site to reflect past approvals for sporting facilities (see above), and3. remove environmentally sensitive land from a residential zone. In this case, the planning proposal plans to rezone approximately 5ha of R2 Low Density Residential land to RU2 Rural Landscape (in the majority) in acknowledgement of it being riparian, flood affected or containing significant vegetation. The RU2 zoning is proposed until such time as suitable environmental zones are applied to the site.
