Planning Proposal for 407-511 King Georges Road, Beverly Hills


Site

407-511 King Georges Road, Beverly Hills
 

Applicant

Beverly Hills Owners Association Incorporated.
 

Rezoning Review

In May 2023, a rezoning review request was lodged with the Department of Planning and Environment (DPE), by Mecone on behalf of the Beverly Hills Owners Association Incorporated, for consideration by the Sydney South Planning Panel (SSPP). The applicant requested a rezoning review because Council has failed to indicate its support for the proposal 115 days after the request to prepare a planning proposal was submitted.  
The rezoning review seeks the following amendments to the Georges River LEP 2021 (GRLEP 2021), to enable a mixed-use development on the western side of King Georges Road.

  • Increase the Floor Space Ratio from 2:1 to part 4:1 and part 5.5:1.

  • Increase the height from 15m to part 44m and part 50m.

Council was invited to provide comments and/or additional information on the proposal which will be considered by the Panel when deciding on whether the proposal should proceed to Gateway.
 

Planning Proposal Status

In August 2023, the Panel considered the rezoning review request along with Council's advice. The Panel determined that an increase in residential density has strategic merit. However, the Panel resolved to defer its final decision pending confirmation from the applicant that they agree to:

a) Revise the Planning Proposal to be consistent with Council’s draft Beverly Hills Town Centre Master Plan, 2020 (draft Master Plan), as amended by the Principles in Council’s resolution dated Monday 24 April 2023, specifically (c) and (d) c.i-iv (the Principles) (attached to the Panel decision); and
b) Subsequently provide additional information and a revised Planning Proposal to address the Panel’s concerns.

The applicant has up to two weeks from the date of the decision to confirm whether they agree to revise their Planning Proposal and provide further information. Should the applicant not agree, then the Panel will make a decision based on the information provided in the rezoning review submissions presented at the briefings with Council and the applicant.

Should the applicant agree, then they have up to a further six weeks to provide the Panel the revised Planning Proposal, including supporting reports and studies. The Panel will then make a decision on whether the revised Planning Proposal has site specific merit and should be submitted for a Gateway Determination.

The Panel decision can be viewed in this letter from the NSW Planning Panel to Georges River Council.
