What is the purpose of an “Additional Permitted Use” clause in the Sutherland Shire Local Environmental Plan 2015?

    An "Additional Permitted Use" clause allows a specific use on a particular piece of land, even if that use is not normally allowed under the zoning rules. This flexibility allows uses complementary to those already permissible on and proximal to the site.

    What is the difference between E4 General Industrial and E3 Productivity Support zoning?

    The E4 General Industrial zone supports industrial and warehouse land uses whereas E3 Productivity Support provides for land uses that are more compatible with and complementary to neighbouring commercial zones in use but require larger lots, for example plant nurseries and furniture stores.

    Does this proposal seek to amend land zoning along Taren Point Road?

    The proposal does not seek to amend the E4 General Industrial land zoning of the site but aims to insert an “Additional Permitted Use” in the form of specialised retail premises.

    Is this proposal for all businesses along Taren Point Road?

    The proposal only pertains to three lots on the western side of Taren Point Road, located at 117-125 Taren Point Road, Taren Point (Lot 1 and Lot 2 of DP 526394) and 131 Taren Point Road, Taren Point (Lot 6 DP 226993).

    Will the proposal impact traffic on Taren Point Road?

    The proposal itself will have no impact on traffic. Traffic generation as a result of any future development on the site will be managed at the development assessment stage.

    Will we be losing industrial land with this amendment?

    The proposal will not amend the current E4 General Industrial land zoning of the site. Future development on the site will have the option of maintaining the current permissible land uses or operating specialised retail premises per the “Additional Permitted Use” proposed.
