The purpose of the amendment is to rezone approximately 4.87 ha in Helena Valley from the Rural zone to the Urban zone and Regional Open Space reservation in the Metropolitan Region Scheme (MRS).
The proposed amendment will primarily facilitate future residential development, public open space and a conservation area following a local planning scheme amendment, local structure planning and subdivision approval.
The proposed amendment is to be progressed as a standard region scheme amendment as the size and scale of the amendment is not regionally significant and does not reflect a significant change to the strategic planning for the Metropolitan region.
