Exceptions to minimum subdivision lot sizes for certain residential development
4.1A Exceptions to minimum subdivision lot sizes for certain residential development
The objective of this clause is to encourage housing diversity without adversely impacting on residential amenity.
Development consent must not be granted for the subdivision of land to create a lot of a size that is less than the minimum size shown on the Lot Size Map in relation to the land unless—
the subdivision is for the purposes of dual occupancies or semi-detached dwellings, or
there is an existing dual occupancy situated on the land that was lawfully erected in accordance with an environmental planning instrument before this Plan commenced and each resulting lot from the subdivision will contain a single dwelling.
The minimum lot size for dual occupancies and semi-detached dwellings under clause 4.1B applies to development involving subdivision for the purposes of dual occupancies and semi-detached dwellings referred to in subclause (2)(a).
A single development consent may be granted to development that involves both—
the subdivision of land into 3 or more lots, and
the erection of an attached dwelling or a semi-detached dwelling on each lot resulting from the subdivision.
