In accordance with Section 7.11 of the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act 1979, Queanbeyan-Palerang Regional Council hereby gives public notice of the exhibition of the following:

Amendments to South Jerrabomberra Local Infrastructure Contributions Plan 2018

This plan has been prepared under Section 7.11 the NSW Environmental Planning and Assessment Act 1979, and provides for Queanbeyan-Palerang Regional Council (‘Council’) to collect contributions from development at South Jerrabomberra to fund local infrastructure that will service the urban release area into the future. These contributions can take the form of money, land (or both) depending on the circumstances.

This plan applies to new development in the urban release area of South Jerrabomberra that generates an increase in demand for local infrastructure:

Residential accommodation development (including subdivision) that would result in a net increase in resident population on the site once the land is developed and occupied.

Retail, commercial and other non-residential development (including subdivision of land), where that development would create a net increase in demand for the public amenities and services to be provided under this plan.

The key aspects of the Plan that have been amended are:

  • Removing costs associated with the acquisition of land for, and construction of, Stage 3A of the Northern Entry Road (NER) through South Poplars.
  • Removing costs associated with the construction of the intersection for the NER and Tompsitt Drive.
  • Increasing embellishment costs per square metre for both ‘passive’ and ‘active’ open space to reflect updated costings.
  • Removing the requirement for one 1 hectare Local Park as this is no longer considered necessary to service the new population.
  • Reducing the area of the two remaining Local Parks from 1 hectare each to 0.5 hectares each as these are considered more appropriate sizes for the Local Parks.
  • Reducing the area of the two playing fields from 7 hectares to 5 hectares having regard to advice from Urban Landscapes, representations from the developers and the size of other similar facilities in Queanbeyan.
  • Reducing land dedication costs for Stage 2 of the NER to update an incorrect land valuation attributed to the length of the road.
  • Reducing the contribution amount for both the Q Theatre and Queanbeyan Library to better reflect the new population’s likely use of those facilities as a percentage of the broader population.
  • Updating Net Developer Area (NDA) figures for commercial/industrial zones to reflect existing zoned land and current planning proposals applying to the site.
  • Updating all costs in the plan to be consistent with CPI as at December 2018.

Submissions and information lodged with Council during this process may be subject to public access under the Government Information (Public Access) Act 2010.
