What is a Planning Agreement?

    A Planning Agreement is an agreement entered into by a planning authority (in this case Sutherland Shire Council) and a developer, which delivers public amenities, land, services, housing or funding as contribution towards the provision of additional or modified local infrastructure.

    What is the background to this draft planning agreement?

    This Planning Agreement was initiated with a Planning Proposal that sought changes to the planning controls for 138-144 Cronulla Street, Cronulla contained in Sutherland Shire Local Environmental Plan 2015 (SSLEP2015).

     

    As the terms of the Planning Agreement had not been resolved when the changes to SSLEP2015 were made, the proponent carried the offer over to the associated development application. This application is for a commercial building ((DA21/0326) and is currently under assessment. 

    What do I need to consider when making a submission?

    Anyone making a submission is required to disclose any reportable political donation, or any gift to any local Councillor or employee of Council. Please be advised that all submissions received in response to the exhibition will be available as a public record.
