Camellia-Rosehill planning proposals must align with its Place Strategy.
Applies to: Land subject to the Camellia-Rosehill Place Strategy in the City of Parramatta LGAWhen preparing a planning proposal for land covered by the Camellia-Rosehill Place Strategy, the authority must ensure it is consistent with that Strategy. The aim is coordinated growth that delivers infrastructure and retains the precinct's employment role. Where it overlaps with Direction 1.7, this direction prevails.
Direction 1.20 is a ministerial planning direction made under section 9.1 of the NSW planning legislation. It requires that any planning proposal (a proposal to change local planning controls, such as a Local Environmental Plan) for land in the Camellia-Rosehill precinct within the City of Parramatta be consistent with the Camellia-Rosehill Place Strategy, a place-based plan approved by the Minister for Planning. In plain terms, the government has set out a coordinated vision for how this precinct should grow, and this direction locks planning proposals to that vision so that rezonings and control changes deliver the intended outcomes rather than ad hoc development.
Planning proposal authorities (typically the City of Parramatta council or a delegate) preparing planning proposals for the affected land. It does not directly bind development applicants or certifiers; it operates at the plan-making (rezoning/LEP amendment) stage.
It applies when a planning proposal authority prepares a planning proposal for land subject to the Camellia-Rosehill Place Strategy in the City of Parramatta LGA, as shown on Map Sheet LAP_001 published on the Department of Planning and Environment website.
A planning proposal may be inconsistent only if the planning proposal authority satisfies the Secretary (or nominee) that the inconsistent provisions are of minor significance, and/or that the proposal achieves the overall intent of the Strategy without undermining its Vision, Strategic Directions, Principles, Actions, Implementation and Staging plans and Master Plan, and that it is consistent with the envisaged future character for the sub-precincts.
The direction may overlap with Ministerial Direction 1.7 (Implementation of the Greater Parramatta Priority Growth Area Interim Land Use and Infrastructure Implementation Plan); where they are inconsistent, Direction 1.20 prevails to the extent of the inconsistency. It also connects to the Central City District Plan and the Greater Sydney Region Plan.
A planning proposal authority must ensure a planning proposal to which the Direction applies is consistent with the Camellia-Rosehill Place Strategy as approved by the Minister and published on the Department's website.
The direction aims to actively support the consistent delivery of objectives in the Central City District Plan and the Greater Sydney Region Plan.
