3A   Ecologically sustainable development
An objective of this plan is to promote development that is consistent with the four principles of ecologically sustainable development. In assessing any development application, the Council shall take into consideration the following principles:
(a)  the precautionary principle—namely, that if there are threats of serious or irreversible environmental damage, lack of full scientific certainty should not be used as a reason for postponing measures to prevent environmental degradation.
In the application of the precautionary principle, public and private decisions should be guided by:
(i)  careful evaluation to avoid, wherever practicable, serious or irreversible damage to the environment, and
(ii)  an assessment of the risk-weighted consequences of various options,
(b)  inter-generational equity—namely, that the present generation should ensure that the health, diversity and productivity of the environment are maintained or enhanced for the benefit of future generations,
(c)  conservation of biological diversity and ecological integrity—namely, that conservation of biological diversity and ecological integrity should be a fundamental consideration,
(d)  improved valuation, pricing and incentive mechanisms—namely, that environmental factors should be included in the valuation of assets and services, such as:
(i)  polluter pays—that is, those who generate pollution and waste should bear the cost of containment, avoidance or abatement,
(ii)  the users of goods and services should pay prices based on the full life cycle of costs of providing goods and services, including the use of natural resources and assets and the ultimate disposal of any waste,
(iii)  environmental goals, having been established, should be pursued in the most cost effective way, by establishing incentive structures, including market mechanisms, that enable those best placed to maximise benefits or minimise costs to develop their own solutions and responses to environmental problems.

cl 17: Rep 13.10.2000.
18   Affordable rental housing
(1)  In this clause, low-rental residential flat building means a residential flat building containing a low rental dwelling.
For the purposes of this subclause, a reference to a low-rental dwelling is a reference to a dwelling that (at any time in the 24-month period prior to the lodgment of a development application to which this clause applies) was let at a rental not exceeding the median rental level for that time:
(a)  specified in the Rent Report or Rent & Sales Report NSW published by the Department of Urban Affairs and Planning or the Department of Housing, or
(b)  specified in a publication issued in place of those publications by or on behalf of the Government,
in relation to a dwelling of the same type, having the same number of bedrooms and located in the Waverley local government area.
(2)  A low-rental residential flat building includes a building:
(a)  that, at the time of lodgment of a development application to which this clause applies, is lawfully used as a low-rental residential flat building, irrespective of the purpose for which the building may have been erected, or
(b)  that was used as a low-rental residential flat building but has been changed unlawfully to another use, or
(c)  that is vacant but the last significant use of which was for a low-rental residential flat building.
(3)  Development consent is required from the Council for development affecting a low-rental residential flat building, when such development involves the following:
(a)  the demolition of the building, or
(b)  a new use of the building.
(4)  When assessing a development application required by subclause (3), the Council must consider:
(a)  whether there is likely to be a major reduction in the number of households or units of low-rental accommodation on the land to which the application relates,
(b)  whether there is available sufficient comparable accommodation in the locality to satisfy the demand for such accommodation in that locality,
(c)  whether the development, if carried out, is likely to cause adverse social and economic effects on the general community,
(d)  whether adequate arrangements have been made to assist the residents (if any) of the building likely to be displaced to find alternative comparable accommodation in the locality,
(e)  whether the cumulative impact of the loss of low-rental residential accommodation in the Council’s area will result in a significant reduction in the stock of that accommodation,
(f)  the structural soundness of the building, the extent to which the building complies with any relevant fire safety requirements and the estimated cost of carrying out work necessary to ensure the structural soundness of the building and the compliance of the building with the fire safety requirements.
For the purposes of this subclause, comparable accommodation means accommodation that is comparable with other accommodation provided within the premises the subject of the development application in that:
(a)  it is similar in location because it is in the same or a neighbouring suburb, and
(b)  it has equivalent access to similar services and facilities, and social and support networks, and
(c)  it is at the same rental level, or is not more than 5% higher than that level, and
(d)  it is available for occupation at the date of lodgment of the development application, and
(e)  in the case of residential flat buildings, comprises dwellings with the same number of bedrooms, and
(f)  it has a like standard of accommodation, including state of repair, size of accommodation and general amenity.
