Planning To Protect Our Coast A planning scheme amendment that aims to keep development within town boundaries and to protect the coastal areas between towns is currently on exhibition for public comment. By Bass Coast Shire Council - 3rd August 2009 - Back to News According to Bass Coast Shire Council’s Planning and Environment Director, Hannah Duncan-Jones, the amendment known as C93 applies to land within five kilometres of the Westernport or Bass Strait coastlines.
"Council has been working on this project for about five years," explained Ms Duncan-Jones.
"The amendment has been developed through the preparation of the Bass Coast Strategic Coastal Planning Framework, which has had input from many members of our community.
"We hosted a number of community forums and workshops where we received a lot of valuable feedback.
"The next step is to incorporate the amendment in the Bass Coast Planning Scheme. This will provide guidance for developers, a clear direction for Council decision making and help protect the values that are so important to the community," continued Ms Duncan-Jones.
"We live in a very fragile coastal environment and this amendment helps protect the coastline and ensures we can continue to live sustainably along the coast."
Amendment C93 applies to the land in and around Bass, Cape Paterson, Corinella, Coronet Bay, Grantville, Harmers Haven, Jam Jerrup, Kilcunda, Pioneer Bay, The Gurdies and Tenby Point.
"Amendment C93 will include a plan for each town that will show town boundaries and what type of land uses can happen within these boundaries.
"It will also rezone parcels of land which will allow the land use to change. In most cases this will allow for new residential development," explained Ms Duncan-Jones.
To view the amendment and supporting documents log onto www.basscoast.vic.gov.au or visit Council’s Customer Service Centres in Wonthaggi, Cowes or Grantville.
Submissions close on 3 September 2009 and should be sent to Council at PO Box 118, Wonthaggi, 3995 or emailed to s.skilton@basscoast.vic.gov.au
