Draft Liverpool Amendment No 23 - Rezoning of Old Council Chambers, Hoxton Park Road, Liverpool from SP2 to B6

The former Council administration site (2.83 ha) is currently zoned part SP2 Infrastructure (Public Administration Building) and part RE1 Public Recreation.The planning proposal is to rezone the site to part B6 Enterprise Corridor and part RE1 Public Recreation. The existing RE1 zone is proposed to be expanded to align with the boundaries of Council's flood risk map. The intent of the rezoning is to provide redevelopment options for the land, which is currently not available under the current SP2 Infrastructure (Public Administration building). The rezoning will allow for a number of development options to occur on site.The planning proposal seeks to amend the following Liverpool LEP 2008 (LLEP 2008) maps:? Land Zoning Map: Zoning to be changed from part SP2 Infrastructure and part RE1 Public Recreation to part RE1 Public Recreation and B6 Enterprise Corridor ? Floor Space Ratio Map: To apply a maximum floor space ratio of 1:1. ? Height of Buildings Map: The proposed maximum height of buildings for B6 zoned land is 15 metres.? Minimum Lot Size Map: Minimum lot size requirement for the B6 zone is proposed at 2,000sqm.Council has advised that the proposed floor space ratio, minimum subdivision lot size, height of building controls are consistent with that applied to the existing B6 zoned land under the LLEP 2008 and will provide for adequate incentive to develop within acceptable parameters of density, bulk and scale.Site detailsThe planning proposal applies to the two following properties:. 1 Hoxton Park Road (Lot 103 DP 877139) - area 21,370 sqm, part SP2 Infrastructure (Public administration building) and part RE1 Public Recreation..
