Planners and developers need to understand the legal obligations regarding Aboriginal objects and sites that are identified before developments, and steps that can be taken to protect.
I refer to Ian Pickles’ letter, titled ‘Developers’ power’ (Letters, 10 February).
Generally, I must agree with most of what Ian wrote in his letter, but I want to point out two glaring errors.
Firstly, the NSW Government Standard Instrument does NOT require multi-dwelling housing be permissible in the R2 Low Density Residential Zone. Including multi-dwelling housing in the R2 zone as permissible continues to be a purely voluntary decision by Byron Council.
Secondly, one has only to read the old
Byron Development Control Plan (DCP) 2010 Chapter 1 Part C – Residential Development and compare it to the current Byron Local Environment Plan (LEP) 2014 and DCP 2014 to see that the planning provisions under Jan Barham and past Green councils were far less permissive of overdevelopment, and put more restrictions in place, which benefited the wider community and neighbours.
