The Act establishes the ACT Planning Authority, and provides for the Authority to prepare, administer and vary the Territory Plan. On 17 April 1991, NCDC policies still In effect became part of the Territory Plan. The ACT Planning Authority proposes to submit to the ACT Executive for Its approval, a Draft Variation to that part of the Territory Plan covering Gungahlin Suburbs H,M,N,R, and W. The Draft Variation proposes to vary the Plan In accordance with Part 3 of the Act, to Identify the land as 'defined land', and to specify the principles and policies for Its development. Interim Effect of the Draft Variation to the Territory Plan In accordance with Section 9 of the Act, this Draft Variation to the Territory Plan Is to have Interim effect for the defined period. "Defined period" means the period commencing on the date the Draft Plan Variation Is notified In the Gazette under Section 13 and terminating at the expiration of the day before- the date the Draft Variation comes Into effect; the date the Draft Variation Is rejected by the Legislative Assembly; or the date the Draft Variation Is withdrawn under paragraph 16(1)(c), 20(a) or 22(4)(b) ; as the case requires. This means that, during the defined period, the Territory, the Executive, a Minister, or a Territory Authority shall not do any act, or approve the doing of any act that would be Inconsistent with the Territory Plan If It were varied In accordance with the Draft Variation, or would be Inconsistent with the Plan. Actions subsequent to Public Consultation The Act provides for a number of actions after the period for public consultation. These are: Perusal of Submissions Section 15 requires the Authority to make copies of any comments received available for perusal, for a period of at least 21 days. The Authority Intends to publish an appropriate notice In The Canberra Times as soon as practical after the close of the period for lodgment of written submissions. Consideration of Responses Section 16 provides that the Authority may, after the expiration of the period for lodgment of written comments, revise the Draft Variation to the Plan or by notice In the Gazette, defer or withdraw the Draft Variation to the Plan. In revising, deferring or withdrawing a Draft Variation to the Plan, the Authority shall consider written comments received from any person or the National Capital Planning Authority. 5 ( •. ·. ·.

The road between suburbs M and W has been moved northwards to allow the district playing fields and four schools to be co- located on the same side of the road. This reduces the potential for a major pedestrian safety hazard. The alignment of the road between Suburbs M and R has been straightened to allow co• location of a 132 kV power line and an adjoining floodway. A community facility site in Suburb 0 has been identified as 'community facility and/or residential', as a result of further consultation with independent school organisations. Need for the Development Future land needs of the growing population will be met predominantly by the development of new areas for settlement. The estimated demand for new residential dwellings Is about 2900 per year. Of this number, about 1500-2000 dwellings have to be provided from new settlement areas, depending on the success of urban consolidation measures. There Is potential for about 9000 residential dwellings In the area covered by the Draft Variation, which could cater for the ACT's needs for a period of about four years. The first houses In Gungahlin are expected to be completed In mid to late 1992. Before that time, house blocks In Tuggeranong will continue to meet the demand. In the longer term It may be possible to cater for a substantially greater proportion of the growth of Canberra through Intensification of development in already established areas. However, It Is unlikely that this will completely replace the need for new land development. Other potential development areas cannot be serviced In time to meet expected demand. For example, a Preliminary Assessment Report for the West Belconnen development was released for public comment In November 1990, and further consultation Is required. The Jerrabomberra area (between Fyshwick and Queanbeyan) Is constrained by the Harman/Bonshaw Naval Installations. While the facilities at Bonshaw are Intended to be relocated as soon as feasible, the affected land Is unlikely to become available for a number of years. Gungahlin Is the only sufficiently large area which can be developed In time to meet the need.
