BLUE MOUNTAINS LOCAL ENVIRONMENTAL PLAN 2005 - REG 24

Living--Bushland Conservation zone

24 Living--Bushland Conservation zone

The objectives for the Living--Bushland Conservation zone are as follows--

(a) To allow for residential development in the form of single detached dwellings where this development is within the capacity of the environment to sustain such development and is undertaken in a manner that minimises impact on environmentally sensitive areas.
(b) To preserve and re-establish native bushland in areas that exhibit a predominantly bushland character, where consistent with the protection of assets from bush fire.
(c) To permit only low density residential land uses and to retain large allotment sizes in fringe urban locations or locations that do not have reasonable access to services and facilities.
(d) To allow a limited range of non-residential land uses only where these are conducted in association with a predominantly residential land use.
(e) To ensure that the form and siting of buildings, colours, landscaping and building materials are appropriate for and harmonise with the bushland character of the locality.
(f) To encourage the retention and re-establishment of native bushland along significant fauna corridors and in areas of high visual significance, including escarpment areas and along the Regional Transport Corridor.
