However, it is intended prevent any further subdivision of the land.Council has concurrently requested that the Director General endorse a revised Junee Residential Strategy 2006 that includes this land release. The original strategy was endorsed by the Director General in January 2008.Note: A Gateway Determination to enable exhibition of the draft Junee LEP 2012 (DJLEP) was issued by the Minister's delegate on the 2 February 2012. Council is yet to commence the public exhibition of the draft LEP. The PP to rezone 38.6 ha of land south of the village of Illabo is not part of the DJLEP.
