Blue Mountains City Council has prepared a Planning Proposal for draft Amendment 21 to Local Environmental Plan (LEP) 2015 and is now seeking your feedback.

The objective of this Proposal is to reclassify Community Land as Operational Land at the following four sites:

  • 75 Godson Avenue, Blackheath

  • 36 Great Western Highway Wentworth Falls

  • 19P Ross Street (Glen Lane), Glenbrook

  • 20A The Appian Way, Woodford

In addition, the Planning Proposal seeks to remove the public reserve status of the land at 36 Great Western Highway Wentworth Falls and rezone the land from RE1 Public Recreation to C4 Environmental Living. This is proposed to facilitate the future sale of that land, which is surplus to Council’s requirement for public open space.

Through the proposed reclassification, Council will be able to better manage the long-term operational use of the subject properties including the lease or sale of the land where appropriate.

For further information, please contact the City Planning Team on 02 4780 5000.
