Code Amendment ID: 10136 25 Pierson Street, Lockleys

Pierson Pty Ltd (Designated Entity) sought to rezone land located at 25 Pierson Street, Lockleys (the Affected Area). The Affected Area was zoned Employment Zone and contains the Westpac Mortgage Centre and the Lockleys Child Care and Early Learning Centre. The Designated Entity's vision is to establish a low to medium density residential development on the Affected Area. This vision necessitated the Affected Area being rezoned from the Employment Zone to the Suburban Neighbourhood Zone and Urban Renewal Neighbourhood Zone.

In general terms, the rezoned land will:

• facilitate low density residential development up to two storeys at the existing residential interfaces

• encourage medium density residential development of a medium scale towards the centre of the Affected Area and along the River Torrens frontage

• encourage rear-loaded product to maximise on-street carparking and to support high quality public realm outcomes with a focus on maximising tree canopy cover to reduce heat

• potentially incorporate small scale non-residential development along the Torrens River frontage to enhance the experience for pedestrians/cyclists

• encourage the provision of open space and improved linkages to the River Torrens Linear Park

• create open space through the site and integrate such space with WSUD principles.

Outcomes

The 25 Pierson Street, Lockleys Code Amendment has now been finalised, as altered and adopted by the Minister for Planning.

Changes were made to the draft Code Amendment to update details on the Concept Plan to reflect a widening of access to public open space to the River Torrens / Karrawirra Parri frontage as well as reflecting building level details. These details included a reduction in the maximum building levels to three levels for land adjacent the River Torrens / Karrawirra Parri and to an area as shown on the Concept Plan.
