Code Amendment ID: 10118 Lot 501 Bedford Park

Bunnings Properties Pty Ltd (the Designated Entity)) is seeking to rezone the land at Lot 501 Marion Road, Bedford Park (the Affected Area), from the Urban Neighbourhood Zone and Urban Neighbourhood Retail Subzone to the Employment Zone.

The rezoning will facilitate the future use of the Affected Area for low-impact employment-generating land uses, including a Bunnings store.

The rationale to rezone the Affected Area, includes:

• Investigations have identified that there is demand for bulky goods retailing within the locality, with the area, configuration and arterial road frontage/access representing an orderly opportunity to accommodate the demand

• The current Urban Neighbourhood Zone anticipates a limited area and scale of retail use which would not accommodate the identified demand for bulky goods in the locality

• Bulky goods is recognised as a unique form of large format retailing which is an envisaged use within the Employment Zone.
