REPORT:

Response

The proposed local and pedestrian links with existing communities are indicative only and, further to the provisions of the Permeability Best Practice Guide (2013), it is accepted that the Draft Planning Scheme should be amended to clarify that these will be subject to further assessment and approval (planning application or Part 8 approval) including further public consultation.

Further to the detailed provisions of the Draft Planning Scheme for a connected network of pedestrian and cycle routes together with the subject potential permeability links, it not considered necessary to insert a provision into the planning scheme for the creation of a further plan on permeability.

Recommendation

It is recommended that this motion is adopted with amendment as follows:

Include the following text under Section 2.2.3 (Pedestrian and Cycle Movement):

Proposed Local and Pedestrian and Cycling Links with existing communities are indicative only and, in accordance with the recommendations of the Permeability Best Practice Guide (2013), shall be subject to further planning approval.

No interaction with Strategic Environmental Objectives.

Appropriate Assessment Screening of Chief Executive’s Recommendation
