Corrective Planning Scheme Amendment C137mann, Update

On 26 July 2022, Council resolved to adopt Amendment C137mann. The purpose of the amendment is to correct Special Building Overlay 1 (SBO1), as it applies to properties in and around Hillcroft Drive, Templestowe.

Specifically, Council resolved to:

Adopt Amendment C137mann in accordance with Attachment 1 (to the Council report), pursuant to section 29 of the Planning and Environment Act, 1987 (the Act);

  • Refer the adopted Amendment C137mann to the Minister for Planning, pursuant to section 31 of the Act;
  • Request that the Minister of Planning approve Amendment C137mann to the Manningham Planning Scheme, in accordance with Attachment 1, pursuant to section 35 of the Act; and
  • Notify affected property owners of Council’s decision.

The impacts of the Amendment for individual properties in and around Hillcroft Drive remain unchanged from our original advice. You can find a plan illustrating the changes to the overlay here.

We have now written to the Minister for Planning requesting approval of Amendment C137mann.

Project timing is now at the discretion of the Minister for Planning. With the State Government Election scheduled for November 2022, potential impacts of the caretaker period on finalisation of this process are also yet to be determined.

We will directly notify all affected property owners of the Minister’s decision once received.
