73 Development near zone boundaries

(1) The objective of this clause is to provide flexibility where the investigation of a site and its surroundings reveals that a use allowed on the other side of a zone boundary would enable a more logical and appropriate development on the site and be compatible with the planning objectives and land uses for the adjoining zone.

(2) This clause applies to so much of any land that is within the relevant distance of a boundary between any 2 zones. The relevant distance is 25 metres.

(3) This clause does not apply to land proposed to be developed for the purpose of sex services or restricted premises.

(4) Despite the provisions of this Part relating to the purposes for which development may be carried out, development consent may be granted to development of land to which this clause applies for any purpose that may be carried out in the adjoining zone, but only if the consent authority is satisfied that--

(a) the development is not inconsistent with the objectives for development in both zones, and

(b) the carrying out of the development is desirable due to compatible land use planning principles relating to the efficient and timely development of land.

(5) This clause does not prescribe a development standard that may be varied under this Part.
