Zone Definitions
As mentioned elsewhere, there are items in black text and items in red text throughout the current working draft of the PLEP. The items in black text are mandatory inclusions (they appear in all LEPs), as determined by the NSW State Government. The items in red text are optional inclusions, identified by council planning staff as being relevant in our LGA. These optional inclusions are again simply chosen from a list provided by the NSW State Government.
In some cases, as in the lists of permitted and prohibited land uses in a zoning category, the red text must be included exactly as is, if it is determined that it is required. In other cases, the wording provided is simply a guide to what can be included.
