DEVELOPMENT CONTROL PLANS

Why are Development Control Plans necessary?

Development Control Plans provide objectives and controls to enhance the function, appearance and amenity of developmnet in the Auburn area. The development controls include setbacks, urban design, stormwater drainage, landscaping, parking and access. They cover various development types, including residential, commercial and industrial developments.
 
Under Section 79C of the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act 1979, the consent authority is required to take into consideration the relevant provisions of the DCP in determining an application for development in the Auburn local government area.
 

The Auburn Development Control Plan 2010 

The Auburn Development Control Plan (DCP) 2010 was prepared in accordance with the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act 1979 (the Act) and the Environmental Planning and Assessment Regulation 2000. The DCP applies to the same area which the Auburn Local Environmental Plan 2010 applies to - this means it excludes Sydney Olympic Park and Wentworth Point. 
 

Our DCP framework includes:

Auburn DCP 2010 is a single consolidated document which has pulled together most of Council's individual DCPs and includes new controls (such as the Waste Part).

It is important to read all relevant chapters/parts of this DCP when preparing a development application. See the links to each chapter below.

    Superseded Master Plans

    The Regency Green Estate - Draft Industrial Business Park Master Plan provides the overall strategy and guiding development principles for future development of the southern portion of the former Regents Park RAAF Stores Depot.
     
    The Masterplan has been prepared in accordance with Clause 64 'Staged Development' of Auburn Local Environmental Plan 2000 and was approved under Development Consent DA-608/2003 as Stage One of the re-development of the former Regents Park Royal Australian Air Force Stores Depot. Clause 64 of Auburn Local Environmental Plan 2000 requires all subsequent stages (development applications for development on allotments within the Regency Green subdivision) to have regard to Stage One, therefore development must be designed in accordance with this document.

    Part 3A Planning Applications

    Some applicants may also need to be aware of site specific Concept Plans which have been approved by the Department of Planning under Part 3A (Major Infrastructure and Other Projects) of the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act 1979. These projects, which are ordinarily assessed by the Department, require the Minister for Planning's approval because they are a particular type of development or are within a State significant site or other specified site.
