Temporary Local Planning Instrument 01/2011 - Flooding Regulation

This adopted Temporary Local Planning Instrument suspends and replaces parts of the Ipswich Planning Scheme for a period of up to 12 months.

On 14 June 2011 Ipswich City Council adopted Temporary Local Planning Instrument 01/2011 - Flooding Regulation (TLPI 01/2011).

TLPI 01/2011 took effect on 20 June 2011 and will cease to have effect on 19 June 2012 or when it is repealed in accordance with the provisions of the Sustainable Planning Act 2009.

The purpose and general effect of TLPI 01/2011 is to provide improved flood regulation based on a revised flood regulation line and associated development provisions.

This TLPI applies to the area to which the Ipswich Planning Scheme 2006 applies and overrides the provisions contained in the Ipswich Planning Scheme 2006 to the extent of matters outlined in Part 7 of the TLPI as generally summarised below.

The TLPI 01/2011 includes:

(1) The replacement of the Flooding and Urban Stormwater Flow Path Areas Overlay Map (OV5) to incorporate a revised flood regulation line in the form of the Adopted Flood Regulation Line.

(2) The replacement of the following sections of the Ipswich Planning Scheme 2006 to reflect the revised flood regulation line and enhance the application of existing flood regulations:

(a) Part 11, Section 11.4.7 - Flooding and Urban Stormwater Flow Path Areas;

(b) Part 11, Table 11.4.3: Assessment Categories and Relevant Assessment Criteria for Development Constraints Overlays-Making a Material Change of Use;

(c) Part 11, Table 11.4.4: Assessment Categories and Relevant Assessment Criteria for Development Constraints Overlays-Other Development; and

(d) Part 12, Section 12.15.4 - Earthworks Code (including Lot Filling) Clause (8) Flooding and Drainage.

(3) The inclusion of four (4) Special Opportunity Areas to encourage the transition of existing flood affected residential areas to low impact non residential uses.
