Cumberland Local Environmental Plan 2021

The objectives of this clause are as follows—

to establish a maximum floor space ratio to enable appropriate development density,

to ensure that development intensity reflects its locality.

The maximum floor space ratio for a building on any land is not to exceed the floor space ratio shown for the land on the Floor Space Ratio Map.

The maximum floor space ratio for development for the purposes of multi dwelling housing on land other than land in the “Former Lidcombe Hospital Site”, shown edged blue on the Floor Space Ratio Map, is as follows—

for a site that is less than 1,300 square metres—0.75:1,

for a site that is 1,300 square metres or greater but less than 1,800 square metres—0.8:1,

for a site that is 1,800 square metres or greater—0.85:1.

The maximum floor space ratio for the following development on land in Zone E3 Productivity Support in the “Parramatta Road Precinct”, shown edged blue on the Floor Space Ratio Map, is as follows—

1.5:1 for specialised retail premises, entertainment facilities, function centres and registered clubs,

3:1 for office premises and hotel or motel accommodation.

The maximum floor space ratio for retail premises on land in Zone E3 Productivity Support in the “Commercial Precinct”, shown edged blue on the Floor Space Ratio Map, is 1.5:1.

For development on land in Zone E1 Local Centre in the “Lidcombe Mixed Use Precinct”, shown edged blue on the Floor Space Ratio Map—

the floor space ratio for the part of the buildings used for non-residential purposes must not be less than 0.4:1, and

the maximum floor space ratio may exceed the floor space ratio shown on the map for the land by 0.3:1 if the floor space ratio for the part of the buildings used for non-residential purposes is not less than 0.6:1.

The maximum floor space ratio for a building on a site area that is wholly on land shown as “Area A” on the Floor Space Ratio Map and on land for which the maximum floor space ratio is as specified in Column 1 of the Table to this subclause is—

if the site area is at least 1,200 square metres, but no more than 1,500 square metres—the ratio specified in Column 2, and

if the site area is more than 1,500 square metres—the ratio specified in Column 3.

If a building on a site area on land shown as “Area B” on the Floor Space Ratio Map is used for the purposes of residential accommodation or tourist and visitor accommodation, or both, the maximum floor space ratio for the part of the building used for the purposes is—

The minimum floor space ratio for a building on land shown as “Area C” on the Floor Space Ratio Map used for non-residential purposes is 0.5:1.
