State Environmental Planning Policy (Sydney Region Growth Centres) 2006 - Box Hill Employment Lands

The proposal seeks to rezone two areas identified as Area 1 and Area 2 (refer to Figure 1 in the planning proposal). Area 1 contains approximately 53 hectares of land within the Box HillIndustrial Precinct and proposes to rezone the site from IN2 Light Industrial to part B6 Enterprise Corridor, part RE1 Public Recreation, part R3 Medium Density Residential and Part R2 Low Density Residential. The purpose of the proposal is to facilitate greater job diversity and employment opportunities to meet the needs of future residents within the Box Hill Precinct.Given the B6 zone is proposed for the majority of the existing employment lands it is also proposed to rezone Area 2, being existing land zoned B6 Enterprise Corridor west of the proposed Box Hill Town Centre to R1 General Residential and remove 'shop top' housing as a permitted land use in the B6 zone.
