Private Plan Change: 422 Marsden Point Road Rezoning

On 20 December 2024, we received a request for a private plan change seeking the rezoning of 422 Marsden Point Road from Heavy Industrial Zone to Light Industrial Zone.

We reviewed the application to assess whether further information was required for us to be able to better understand the potential environmental impact of the proposal, measures to mitigate adverse effects, and the analysis of costs, benefits, efficiency and alternatives.

The information initially provided was insufficient, so Council issued a Request for Further Information on 7 February 2025. The applicant responded on 17 March 2025, but key issues remained.

A second request was issued on 4 April 2025, and a response was received on 9 May 2025. However, the information still did not fully address the outstanding matters.

On 23 May 2025, Council issued a notice proposing modifications to the precinct provisions. The applicant accepted all proposed changes on 27 May 2025.

We are now satisfied that we don’t require any further information, the private plan change application will be taken to the 17 July 2025 Strategy, Planning and Development Committee to decide whether to adopt, accept or reject the request.

If a decision is taken to adopt or accept the request, it will be notified as a plan change within four months of the decision.
