City Plan code template
This code template supports the preparation of a development application against either the acceptable outcome(s) or performance outcome(s) contained in the code. Development assessment rules are outlined in Section 5.3.3 of the City Plan.Please note:
For assessment against the overall outcomes, refer to the appropriate code.
Note: The whole of the planning scheme is identified as the assessment benchmark for impact assessable development. This specifically includes assessment of impact assessable development against this strategic framework. The strategic framework may contain intentions and requirements that are additional to and not necessarily repeated in zone, overlay or other codes. In particular, the performance outcomes in zone codes address only a limited number of aspects, predominantly related to built form. Development that is impact assessable must also be assessed against the overall outcomes of the code as well as the strategic framework.
9.3.15 Relocatable home park code
9.3.15.1 Application
This code applies to assessing material change of use for development for relocatable home parks where indicated within Part 5 Tables of assessment.
When using this code, reference should be made to Section 5.3.2 and, where applicable, Section 5.3.3, in Part 5.
9.3.15.2 Purpose
(1) The purpose of the Relocatable home park code is to provide assessment benchmarks for relocatable home parks.
(2) The purpose of the code will be achieved through the following overall outcomes:
(a) Relocatable home parks are designed to create attractive, high quality living areas for occupants and to protect the privacy and amenity of each individual relocatable home area.
(b) Development is designed and oriented to promote a safe environment within the site, adjoining streets and public realm.
(c) Relocatable home parks promote a high standard of living for residents through their design, recreational and communal facilities.
(d) Relocatable home park sites are large to accommodate the necessary recreational, communal facilities and recreational vehicle parking.
