During this time anyone may make a written submission about any changes the DPA is proposing. Submissions should be sent to the Chief Executive Officer, City of Charles Sturt, PO Box 1, Woodville SA 5011. Submissions should indicate whether the author wishes to speak at a public meeting about the DPA. If no-one requests to be heard, no public meeting will be held. If requested, a meeting will be held at 6pm on Monday 18 May 2020 at the Civic Centre, 72 Woodville Road, Woodville. PlanningPlanning and Design and CodeDesign Code A new planning system is currently being introduced into South Australia. The new Planning, Development and Infrastructure Act 2016 (PDI Act) is being introduced in stages. The Planning and Design Code is the cornerstone of the new planning system and consolidates the planning rules contained in South Australia’s 72 Development Plans into one rulebook. In this regard the Charles Sturt Council Development Plan will be superseded by the new Planning and Design Code in July 2020. We are currently in the transition between the two pieces of legislation. This DPA, being undertaken by Council, is being prepared and consulted on under the Development Act 1993 to amend Council’s current Development Plan. Existing zones in the current Development Plan will be transitioned to the equivalent zone in the Planning and Design Code. In regard to the policy changes proposed in this DPA, all changes utilise existing zones within the current Development Plan with some local additions. If the DPA is approved by the Minister for Planning, the intent of the policy changes will be transitioned, with the relevant zones in the current plan. Potentially local additions will be transitioned into a subzone. It should be noted that Phase 3 of the Planning and Design Code is currently on consultation under the PDI Act. At this stage the changes proposed in this DPA are not incorporated into the draft Code. As indicated above, if the DPA is approved, these will be transitioned into the Code.
