Part 1 Preliminary

Note. The Standard Instrument (Local Environmental Plans) Order 2006 sets out matters to be included in standard local environmental plans. While this Precinct Plan is not a standard local environmental plan, it is generally consistent with standard plans. A number of clauses from the Standard Instrument (Local Environmental Plans) Order 2006 have been included in this Precinct Plan and the clause numbering from that order has been retained. This means that the numbering in this Precinct Plan may contain some gaps. Additional provisions have been inserted and are numbered accordingly.
