Planning Proposal to amend Sutherland Shire Local Environmental Plan 2015 to introduce a minimum lot size for dual occupancy and multi dwelling development in R2 Low Density Residential and E4 Environmental Living zones

The planning proposal seeks to amend Sutherland Shire Local Environmental Plan 2015 (SSLEP 2015) by introducing minimum lot size requirements for the construction of dual occupancies on land identified as “Area A” within the E4 Environmental Living zone and land zoned R2 Low Density Residential. The proposal also seeks to introduce minimum lot size requirements for the construction of multi dwelling housing on land zoned R2 Low Density Residential. The specific standards proposed to be included are:
• a minimum lot size of 600m2 for the construction of a dual occupancy in the R2 Low Density zone;
• a minimum lot size of 700m2 for the construction of a dual occupancy on land identified as “Area A” on the Additional Permitted Uses (APU) Map, which is also zoned E4 Environmental Living zone; and
• a minimum lot size of 1200m2 for the construction of multi-dwelling housing in the R2 Low Density Residential zone.
