Strategic assessment of the amendment 2 • Why is the amendment required? The amendment has been prepared to correct a number of errors, omissions, anomalies and inconsistencies that have been identified in the Strathbogie Planning Scheme. Correction of these inaccuracies will contribute to the more effective operation and administration of the Strathbogie Planning Scheme. Details of each site requirements are: 1. Armstrong and Hunter Streets, Euroa. Rezone land from Farming Zone to Residential 1 Zone as the existing subdivision pattern and development reflects a Residential 1 Zone. 2. Nagambie Lakes Leisure Park (also known as Chinaman’s Bridge Caravan Park). Rezone the land from Farming Zone to Public Park and Recreation Zone to recognise the approved use and development on the site and to apply the most appropriate zoning. This rezoning is supported by the land manager being Goulburn- Murray Water. 3. 66 Loddings Lane, Nagambie (known as the Nagambie Regatta Centre). Rezone the land from Farming Zone to Public Park and Recreation Zone to recognise the approved use and development and to allow further development on the site by applying the most appropriate zoning. This rezoning is supported by the land owner being Goulburn-Murray Water. 4. 285 High Street, Nagambie (Lots 1 & 2 TP606358P), which is the former Uniting Church site. This land is being rezoned from Business 1 to Public Park and Recreation to reflect the ownership by Strathbogie Shire Council and use as a public park. The land is the site of the former Uniting Church, which was destroyed, allowing the vacant land to be used for recreation purposes. The rezoning will provide consistency with the zoning and use of surrounding land. 5. Land located south of Jacobson’s lookout also described as land north of the Lakeside Resort Motel (the old Verge Motors site). This land is being rezoned from Business 1 to Public Park and Recreation to reflect the use as a public park. The rezoning will provide consistency with the zoning and use of surrounding land. 6. Lots 14-17 Grant Street, Mangalore are incorrectly shown as Public Use Zone (PUZ4 - Transport) on map No. 21. As this land is in private ownership it requires rezoning to reflect its private land status and is to be rezoned to Farming Zone, the same zone as the remainder of the Mangalore Township. 7. 2 Mitchell Street (residential allotment), Violet Town. As this land is in private ownership it requires rezoning to reflect its private land status and it to be rezoned from Public Park and Recreation Zone to Township Zone. The land has been developed for residential purposes and was never used as part of the public recreational area. 8. Violet Town Recreation Reserve (C.A. 3 Sec. F Township of Violet Town). Rezone from Farming Zone to Public Park and Recreation Zone to accurately reflect the public use as a community recreation park. This rezoning correction was requested from the Department of Sustainability and Environment (DSE) being the crown land manager. 9. 30 Main Street (Part), Strathbogie. Rezone part of land (Lot 1 LP147115), from Public Use Zone 1 to Township Zone to accurately reflect the current use and development, and to correct an anomaly in the Strathbogie Planning Scheme. The land is in private ownership and the land has no public use. 10. 17 Armstrong Street, Strathbogie. Rezone part of land from Farming Zone to Township Zone to accurately reflect the current use and development, and to correct an anomaly in the Strathbogie Planning Scheme. The land is owned by the Strathbogie Golf Club who made the request for Council to correct the inconsistency in the Strathbogie Planning Scheme. 3 11. 52 Mitchell Street, Avenel. Apply a Heritage Overlay at the site of the Former Campion House which is a locally significant heritage site that was overlooked in the heritage controls in the Strathbogie Planning Scheme. This anomaly in the Planning Scheme has been highlighted by a heritage assessment on the site. 12. The former Shire hall building located at 344 High Street, Nagambie, should be covered by a Heritage Overlay (HO15). The location of this overlay has been incorrectly identified at 244 High Street, Nagambie, on planning scheme map No. 22. This amendment will place the Heritage Overlay on the correct site. 13. Remove the Public Acquisition Overlay (PAO2) at Balmattum west of Violet Town from the planning scheme map No. 6 as the Gas Transmission Corporation has been sold by the State Government to a private operator and the land acquisition is no longer required for any gas utility. 14. Amend the Schedule to the Special Use Zone (Schedule 2 – Freeway Service Centre) to reflect Category 1 signage (Business areas - minimum limitation). This will enable the Service Centre to display signage that is more appropriate for the land use and development. The Special Use Zone enables reference to the type of signage through the Schedule to the zone. 15. Amend the Schedule to Heritage Overlay (refer item 12 above) to include the former Champion House at 52 Mitchell Street, Avenel. This will correct an inconsistency in the Strathbogie Planning Scheme and enable heritage controls over a locally significant heritage site. A heritage assessment by a qualified heritage consultant supports the overlay control. • How does the amendment implement the objectives of planning in Victoria? (S.4 of the Planning and Environment Act 1987) The amendment is intended to correct anomalies in the Strathbogie Planning Scheme. Thus the corrections will ensure that the objectives of planning in Victoria are implemented by: (a) providing for the fair, orderly, economic and sustainable use, and development of land; (b) assisting to secure a pleasant, efficient and safe working, living and recreational environment for all Victorians and visitors to Victoria; (c) ensuring the protection of public utilities and other assets and enable the orderly provision and coordination of public utilities and other facilities for the benefit of the community; (d) facilitating development in accordance with the objectives set out in paragraphs (a), (b), (c), (d) and (e); and (e) assisting to balance the present and future interests of all Victorians.
