21.05 OBJECTIVES – STRATEGIES – IMPLEMENTATION Council Applies BASS COAST PLANNING SCHEME 21.05 OBJECTIVES – STRATEGIES – IMPLEMENTATION 19/01/2006 VC37 Council applies an integrated approach to land use planning which takes into account economic, social and environmental perspectives. It is considered that this approach does, and will realise preferred future development and directions within the Shire. The five land use issues that have been identified as integral to future land use and development within Bass Coast accord with those contained in the State Planning Policy Framework. Each major land use issue comprises specific elements. These are: Settlement Urban settlement Township character Environment Natural resources Environmental hazards Cultural heritage Housing Residential Rural Living and Low Density Residential Development Small rural lots Economic Development Business Industry Tourism Recreation Agriculture Forestry and timber production Extractive industry Infrastructure Transport Community services Physical Each of these elements is considered in the following terms. Overview The important features of each element. Issues What factors influences each element. MUNICIPAL STRATEGIC STATEMENT - CLAUSE 21.05 PAGE 1 OF 32 BASS COAST PLANNING SCHEME Objectives What is to be achieved. Strategies How each objective is to be achieved. Implementation How each strategy will be implemented. 21.05-1 SETTLEMENT 13/07/2006 C58 Urban settlement Overview Settlements of varying size and function are scattered throughout the Shire. Those along the coastline and on Phillip Island are primarily holiday resorts, although they are becoming increasingly popular for permanent residents, particularly retirees. Although there are numerous vacant residential lots in each town, this may not fully satisfy all demand over the next twenty-five years. Issues Adequate residential land in each town set aside to accommodate expected increased population and associated community services and facilities, recreation and open space. Urban settlement responsive to and interactive with the surrounding natural environment, particularly the coastline. Pressures to expand urban areas beyond existing town boundaries for both residential and low density residential development. Provision of fully serviced urban areas. Development and business opportunities in Dalyston, Kilcunda, Bass and Archies Creek. Revitalisation of rural hamlets. Appropriately located large-scale special alternative residential lifestyle developments beyond town boundaries. Restructuring of old and inappropriate residential subdivisions. Implications of expanded sewerage areas. Objectives To provide adequate residential land in each town to accommodate anticipated population growth. To consolidate urban development within existing urban boundaries separated by rural land. To provide open space and community facilities to satisfy demand within each town. To maximise the use of infrastructure. To provide an appropriate level of physical and community infrastructure in new urban areas. To have development that is energy efficient and responsive to, and interactive with the surrounding diverse natural environment. MUNICIPAL STRATEGIC STATEMENT - CLAUSE 21.05 PAGE 2 OF 32 BASS COAST PLANNING SCHEME To have innovative subdivision layouts relating to, and incorporating recreation or environmental features in appropriate locations. To revitalise rural hamlets and provide development and business opportunities for small 'old' towns. To restructure old and inappropriate residential subdivisions into low density residential and rural living lots. Strategies Allow for the limited expansion of residentially zoned land in Grantville. Encourage subdivision of existing lots provided the natural environment and the local community is not adversely affected. Encourage higher density housing in proximity to town centres. Actively promote infill development of areas already zoned for residential use in all towns. Strongly discourage expansion of all urban areas into the rural land that separates townships. Strongly discourage rural living and low density residential development to locate in areas that compromise the potential future development of towns. Rural living and low density residential development should be located on the periphery of, but be functionally part of, existing urban settlement. Strongly discourage expansion of isolated residential, low density residential, and rural living estates, except on the north side of Viminaria Road, Harmers Haven if servicing and environmental issues are satisfactorily addressed. Facilitate and develop a range and mix of open space and community facilities within all developing areas. Develop safe and enjoyable pedestrian and cyclist routes throughout towns, and where feasible, as a means of linking towns. Require all new residential and low density residential development to connect to all available reticulated services. Where reticulated sewerage is not available, it should be demonstrated that all effluent can be effectively treated and disposed of on-site. Require an equitable distribution of physical and community infrastructure in new urban areas. Actively promote the siting and design of energy efficient buildings, which responds to the surrounding natural environment, particularly the coastline. Encourage the creation of innovative integrated energy efficient subdivision layouts that relate to, and enhance, the environmental features of an area. Only allow innovative large-scale integrated subdivision layouts that relate to, or incorporate recreational opportunities outside existing town boundaries. Encourage businesses to establish in Archies Creek, Bass, Kilcunda and Dalyston. Encourage the consolidation and development of small township lots at Glen Alvie, Glen Forbes, Kernot, Almurta and Woolamai. Actively promote restructuring of old and inappropriate subdivisions where Restructure Plans exist. Limit development in old and inappropriate subdivisions to ensure that future development opportunities are not unduly prejudiced. Implementation MUNICIPAL STRATEGIC STATEMENT - CLAUSE 21.05 PAGE 3 OF 32 BASS COAST PLANNING SCHEME These strategies will be implemented by: Applying Residential 1 Zone over all land developed or committed for residential use in most urban areas (except Kilcunda, Dalyston, Archies Creek and Bass), and in all isolated residential estates (Jam Jerrup, Island Road Estate, Tenby Point, Adams Estate, Mabilia Road Estate). Applying Township Zone over Kilcunda, Dalyston, Archies Creek and Bass to provide opportunities for new businesses to establish in these towns. Applying Low Density Residential Zone over all land developed or committed for low density residential development on the periphery of the urban areas at Corinella, Grantville, Ventnor, Cowes, Sunset Strip / Sunderland Bay, San Remo, Wonthaggi (north and south), and Inverloch (west). Applying Rural Living Zone over all land developed or committed for rural living development that are generally isolated or physically separated from urban areas at Hurdy Gurdy Creek environs, Wattle Bank, Ruttle Lane, Mabilia Road Estate, Woolamai, Bass, South Wonthaggi and Inverloch (east). The minimum lot size for new subdivision should be 8 hectares to clearly indicate that further subdivision of these estates is strongly discouraged. Applying Farming Zone and Development Plan Overlay over Glen Alvie, Glen Forbes, Kernot, Almurta and Woolamai to encourage consolidation of small township lots. Applying Public Park and Recreation Zone over all public land used for public open space and recreation areas. Applying Environmental Significance Overlay over land zoned Residential 1 where reticulated sewerage is not available. Applying Design and Development Overlay to minimise the visual impact of residential development on the coastline and maintain views from the coast to residential areas. Applying Development Plan Overlay over undeveloped residentially zoned land in Coronet Bay, Inverloch and Grantville. Applying Restructure Overlay over: Residential 1 zoned land at Adams Estate. Rural zoned land at Queensferry and Dudley. Township zoned land at Kilcunda and Dalyston. Using local policy Clause 22.03 Small rural lots in rural zones to encourage small rural lots to locate in proximity to rural hamlets and associated infrastructure. Using local policy Clause 22.01 Grantville to identify the future direction of development in Grantville. Supporting actions include: Use Council's adopted Design and Siting Guidelines for Coastal and Hinterlands 1999 for considering residential development in proximity to the coastline, and Mabilia Road Estate, Kilcunda. Promote Bass, Archies Creek, Dalyston and Kilcunda as attractive, viable locations for new businesses for example, tourist development at Bass, and tourist accommodation at Kilcunda, hi-tech industries at Archies Creek and Dalyston. Undertake a study of old and inappropriate subdivisions in the municipality including Scenic Road Estate, Maher's Landing, Glen Alvie, Glen Forbes, Kernot, Almurta and Woolamai. Undertake a study that examines the implications of expansion of sewerage areas, particularly at Ventnor, Kilcunda and Dalyston will have on a strategy of urban consolidation. MUNICIPAL STRATEGIC STATEMENT - CLAUSE 21.05 PAGE 4 OF 32 BASS COAST PLANNING SCHEME Develop and implement a Development Contribution Plan for the Shire. Township character Overview The character of a town, whether large or small, is influenced by many elements.

    LOCAL PROVISION BASS COAST PLANNING SCHEME 21.02 MUNICIPAL PROFILE 21.02-1 Introduction Bass Coast Shire was created on 2 December 1994 by the amalgamation of the former municipalities of Bass, Phillip Island and Wonthaggi, as well as including parts of the former municipalities of Cranbourne, Korumburra and Woorayl. Bass Coast Shire covers approximately 800 square kilometres, has a population of 21,000 and includes some of the most diverse and well known 175 kilometres of coastline in Victoria, as well as a most scenic rural hinterland. Major towns include Cowes, Wonthaggi and Inverloch. The local economy is primarily based on dairy and beef farming and tourism. The Shire has important economic, social and environmental links with both the metropolitan Melbourne and Gippsland regions, and it is a nationally and internationally recognised tourist and sporting destination. 21.02-2 Settlement Population characteristics The resident population of Bass Coast was found to be 21,248 in the 1996 Census. 27% of the population is over 60 years of age. There are 9,260 households with an average household size of 2.29. The main employment sectors are agriculture, tourist-related industries (wholesale/retail section) and community services. It is projected that the Shire’s population will increase to approximately 26,200 by the year 2011 and 29,200 by 2021. During the period 1996-2021, the number of households is expected to rise from 9,260 to 13,500 with a steady decline in average household size. The rate of growth projected for Bass Coast Shire by 2011 is almost 80% higher than that projected for Regional Victoria.

  • March 2017 Handstands for Hayden When Hayden Marshall Almost Lost His Life Late Last Year After a Fall from a Trampoline, His Family’S Life Was Turned Upside Down
    FREE The Waterline News Tooradin, Koo Wee Rup, Lang Lang, Nyora, Loch, Kernot, Grantville, Corinella, Coronet Bay, Bass, San Remo, Newhaven, Cowes, Phillip Island, French Island and Wonthaggi. Available by email and at www.waterlinenews.com.au Volume 3 # 7 March 2017 Handstands for Hayden When Hayden Marshall almost lost his life late last year after a fall from a trampoline, his family’s life was turned upside down. As if running their own cleaning business, volunteering with the Phillip Island Scouts and keeping up busy family life with their sons Rory (who was completing Year 12), Hayden (who trained for gymnastics several times a week in Mornington) and Toby wasn’t enough, now Sharon and Ian’s daily routine involved trips to Melbourne to spend every minute possible with Hayden. A huge community fundraising event is being held to raise money for the Marshall family to assist with expenses such as modifying their home to accommodate Hayden’s wheelchair, and to help with the other massive costs involved with his ongoing treatment. A state gold medal winning gymnast, Hayden has always wanted to hold a world record, so ‘Handstands for Hayden’ is now calling for your support. Local organisations that the Marshalls are involved with including the Phillip Island Nature Park, YMCA Phillip Island, Rhyll Trout and Bush Tucker Farm, Phillip Island Scouts and Newhaven College have combined with The Westernport Hotel and Cowes CWA to put on a community festival extravaganza. Renowned local duo The Pierce Brothers will headline the entertainment program that will include DJ BANDO and Newhaven College bands.
