The Amendment primarily proposes to update the existing Clause 21.31 - Lara in the Greater Geelong Planning Scheme to reflect the adoption of the new Lara Structure Plan June 2005 and the Lara Town Centre Urban Design Framework March 2006. The Amendment also proposes to amend Clause 21.08 - Urban Growth to update the relevant urban growth recommendations for Lara.
The Amendment does not include the rezoning of land. It does however include the planning policy framework that identifies the land suitable for the future urban growth of the township. Separate planning scheme amendment applications will need to be made and considered in the future to rezone the land identified in the Structure Plan and this Amendment.
