The Amendment is a combined planning permit application and planning scheme amendment under Section 96A of the Act.

The amendment proposes to rezone vacant farmland along the southern edge of the Lonsdale Golf course, off Gill Road, Point Lonsdale, from Farming Zone and Rural Conservation Zone to Special Use Zone 3 (Private Golf Course) to provide for a modest expansion of the existing golf course. It also substantially modifies the previously approved proposal to extend the course around the edges of Lake Victoria which are now proposed to be back zoned from Special Use Zone 3 to Rural Conservation Zone as shown on the map on the previous page. The amendment also proposes to amend the existing Development Plan Overlay 26 map and schedule to reflect the new course arrangements.

The planning permit application no. 879/2017 applies to 19 – 73 Gill Road, Point Lonsdale.

The planning permit seeks approval for a 2 lot subdivision to enable the golf club to purchase the newly rezoned Special Use Zone 3 land from the adjoining property owner.

The decision to prepare and exhibit the Amendment was made by Council at it’s meeting on 12 December 2018. The minutes from the meeting can be found below under “Supporting Documents”.
