Papers and statement by minister

MR CORBELL (Molonglo—Attorney-General, Minister for Police and Emergency Services and Minister for the Environment and Sustainable Development): For the information of members I present the following papers:

Planning and Development Act, pursuant to subsection 79(1)—Approval of Variation No 307 to the Territory Plan—Griffith, Section 42, Block 15—Change of zoning from commercial CZ6 leisure and accommodation zone to RZ4 medium density residential zone—Amendment of the Griffith precinct code, dated 19 April 2012, together with background papers, a copy of the summaries and reports, and a copy of any direction or report required.

Planning, Public Works and Territory and Municipal Services—Standing Committee—Report 12—Draft variation to the Territory Plan No 307—Change of zoning—Government response.

I ask leave to make a statement in relation to the papers.

Leave granted.

MR CORBELL: Variation 307 has undergone rigorous scrutiny through the ACT’s planning system. I table this variation today with the unanimous support of the Standing Committee on Planning, Public Works and Territory and Municipal Services. I would like to take this opportunity to thank the committee for its detailed consideration and report on this variation.

Variation 307 rezones land at Austin Street in Griffith—section 42, block 15. This site is more commonly known as the headquarters for the Brumbies Rugby club and was previously the site of the Canberra South Bowling and Recreation Club. The rezoning removes the current commercial CZ6 leisure and accommodation zoning and replaces it with the RZ4 medium density residential zone. Consistent with the recommendations of the standing committee, the variation also amends the Griffith precinct code of the territory plan, introducing specific provisions relating to the subject site.
