Another key consideration in utilizing the B5 zoning is to ensure that application does not detract from the viability of existing centres. A possible means of ensuring that B5 zoned land performs a different economic role to existing centres is to limit the range of permissible retail uses. Such restrictions are likely to result in a zone that is not ideally suited to a local service function. It is understood that the intention behind the B5 zone is to provide a more relaxed planning framework that would permit opportunities for a range for office, warehouse and retail development, in locations where this mix of use is appropriate. The zoning would therefore permit a broad range of employment activities, including those with relatively high employment densities. It follows then that application of the zoning should be limited to those locations that are in, or near, existing centres, or are well served by public transport. For the purpose of consistency with the draft Study recommendations, Tables Nos. 2 and 45 have been reissued by the consultant without reference to the zone B5 in respect of the Dural Service Centre. The commentary in both tables now reads: “There is no zone within the Standard Instrument that, either through its objectives or compulsory permissible land uses, reflects the current range of land uses permissible under the Business E zoning that currently applies to the Dural Service Centre. The recommended strategy for future zoning of this area would be to apply the IN2 zoning and as far as is possible including as many permissible land uses in the zone that would be desirable in this area, bearing in mind that these uses would then also be permissible on all other IN2 zoned land. In order to introduce some additional variety of local service uses, a part of the Dural Service Centre could be zoned B2 Local Centre. The area of land with commercial zoning should be limited so as not to encourage significant additional employment and services in an ‘out of centre’ location. In addition to the permissible uses (with consent) in the LEP standard instrument, we have added a range of additional retail and local service uses. Additional zone objectives should be introduced to reflect the broader range of anticipated uses.” The comments within Table 43 have also been reissued for consistency and now read: “Recommended zoning for the Dural Service Centre is IN2 – Light Industrial. In order to allow a wider range of uses a specific area could be set aside as B2 Local Centre to permit additional desirable uses that are not permissible in the IN2 zone.” The reissued tables (copy attached) would form part of the Study should Council resolve to progress the Study to exhibition.
