Draft Amendments To The Hills Section 94A Contributions Plan (FP134)

Submissions Close 20 January 2017

Council resolved at its meeting on 25 October 2016 to:        

• Repeal Contributions Plan No.5 - Castle Hill (‘CP5’);
• Repeal Contributions Plan No.7 - Southern Precincts (‘CP7’);
• Repeal The North Kellyville Precinct Section 94A Contributions Plan; and
• Publicly exhibit draft amendments to The Hills Section 94A Contributions Plan.

In accordance with Clause 32 (2)(a) of the Environmental Planning and Assessment Regulation 2000, Council may repeal a contributions plan by way of a new contributions plan or amendments to an existing contributions plan. Accordingly, it is proposed that CP5, CP7 and The North Kellyville Precinct Section 94A Contributions Plan be repealed by way of amendments to The Hills Section 94A Contributions Plan.

In addition to amendments to facilitate the repeal of CP5, CP7 and The North Kellyville Precinct Section 94A Contributions Plan, additional amendments to The Hills Section 94A Contributions Plan are also proposed which: 

• Extend the application of the Plan to include areas currently subject to those plans which are proposed to be repealed and include all outstanding works under these Plans within the Works Schedule to The Hills Section 94A Contributions Plan;
• Extend the application of the Plan to include all areas within The Hills Shire including a number of commercial and local centres which are not currently subject to the Plan;
• Remove areas and works items from the Plan which are no longer within The Hills Shire (now within City of Parramatta area) – it is proposed that these areas and works items will be included within a new Section 94A Contributions Plan prepared by City of Parramatta which is on public exhibition concurrently;
• Clarify the types of development which are exempt from the application of the Section 94A levy; andUpdate the value for a number of existing items within the Works Schedule to reflect actual costs (where completed) or updated costs where original estimates have been revised.
