Planning and Environment Act 1987
MACEDON RANGES PLANNING SCHEME
AMENDMENT C89
EXPLANATORY REPORT
Who is the planning authority?
This amendment has been prepared by the Macedon Ranges Shire Council, which is the
planning authority for this amendment.
The amendment has been made at the request of Macedon Ranges Shire Council.
Land affected by the amendment
The amendment applies to various parcels of land throughout the Shire as shown on the

The PUZ6, which does not follow the property
boundary of CA 39B but rather what appears to
be the riparian boundary, traverses onto private
land. This error is being corrected by rezoning
the sliver of privately owned land to the
underlying zone. Note that the remainder of the
PUZ6 is to be changed to PCRZ – see items 52
and 53
Map 33:
Applies the underlying zone to Crown land at
edge of State forest. DEPI confirms that PCRZ
is the most appropriate zone for the this parcel
of land as it would align to that of most other
parcels of State forest within Victoria
Map 33:
Council does not own or manage this land, as
the current zoning would suggest. The
proposed change applies the underlying zone to
Crown land at the edge of State forest. DEPI
confirms that PCRZ is the most appropriate
zone for this parcel of land as it would align to
that of most other parcels of State forest
Map 33:
Currently a part of CA 39B is zoned PUZ6 (see
above) and the remainder of CA 39B is zoned
Rural Conservation Zone 1. DEPI confirmed
that most other parcels of State forest within
Victoria is zoned PCRZ, as such it is proposed
to apply the most appropriate zone to this parcel
of land

1. a 2012 S.173 Agreement with Council
when the land was sold as part of a
subdivision and lot consolidation under a
2006 Permit (P204-0716) (Council agreed
to initiate a rezoning of this land to the
Business 1 Zone (now Commercial 1
Zone) within 12 months of the Agreement);
and

To: Public Use Zone 6 (Local Government)

2. the S.173 Agreement’s requirement
regarding the 1997 Statement of
Environment Audit for the land which
restricts use to commercial non-sensitive
purposes and accords with the provisions
of the Environmental Audit Overlay that
applies to the land
The application of the Commercial 1 Zone

Explanation
The Environmental Audit Overlay will continue to
apply to Lots 4 (51 Aitken Street) and 5 (49

used for sensitive purposes unless a Certificate
of Environmental Audit issues for such. The
1997 Statement of Environment Audit registered
on the Titles ensures that the restricted use of
the land is appropriately managed in response
to the 1997 Audit findings

(DPCD Practice note 01: “Applying the

property that does not form part of the
heritage place and extend and apply to
correct property
Map correction:
 The HO came first and then Council
permitted subdivision. The subdivision and
residential development has left the original
homestead intact on a smaller block of land
but has created a new character in the
surrounding original property which does not
reflect the original homestead. New
residential development requires heritage
consent, which is an anomaly as it has no
heritage value. The heritage place itself is
not included. Remove the heritage overlay
from 11 lots and apply to the heritage place

Map correction:
 The HO came first and then Council
permitted subdivision. The subdivision and
residential development has left the original
homestead intact on a smaller block of land
but has created a new character in the
surrounding original property which does not
reflect the original homestead. New
residential development requires heritage
consent, which is an anomaly as it has no
heritage value. The heritage place itself is
not included. Remove the heritage overlay
from 39 lots and apply to the heritage place
NOTE: The changes to the Schedule to the Heritage Overlay only relate to the following Heritage Overlays:

HO75, HO91, HO104, HO114, HO122, HO124, HO126 and HO229
NOTE: Macedon Ranges Shire Council requested the Minister for Planning to prepare and process prescribed Amendment C74 on
04/04/2014. Numerous corrections are being proposed to the Schedule to the Heritage Overlay. The Schedule to the Heritage Overlay
attached to C89 does not reflect the corrections proposed under Amendment C74. It is important that the corrections proposed under C89,
once adopted, not override the corrections effected by C74.
Strategic assessment of the amendment
Why is the amendment required?
The corrections improve the general operation and effectiveness of the scheme by removing
unnecessary planning restrictions that stem from incorrectly applied planning controls that
do not reflect the circumstances of the affected land.
These changes will ensure that current errors and anomalies found within the Macedon
Ranges Planning Scheme are corrected. This is consistent with the Planning and
Environment Act requirements for regular review of planning schemes.
How does the amendment implement the objectives of planning in Victoria?
This amendment includes minor adjustments and technical corrections to the planning
scheme. As such, these minor changes ensure that correct provisions are applied to
relevant land parcels, which in turn ensures consistency within the Macedon Ranges
Planning Scheme.
To provide for the fair, orderly, economic and sustainable use and development of land
The amendment corrects zoning and planning scheme provisions that impact on the fair and
orderly use and development of land. The amendment corrects the inadvertent application of
incorrect zones and applies zones that are appropriate to the use and development of land.
These changes provide for the economic and sustainable use of these lands. The
amendment changes and corrections of errors and anomalies are essentially minor and
administrative in nature.
To provide for the protection of natural and man-made resources and the maintenance of
ecological processes and genetic diversity
Consideration has been given to the context of each site and surrounding land uses and
applies zones that reflect the current use of the land or consistent with the zoning of
adjoining lands. The application of correct zones to public land will protect both the natural
and man-made resources.
To conserve and enhance those buildings, areas or other places which are of scientific,
aesthetic, architectural or historical interest, or otherwise of special cultural value
The amendment corrects heritage place descriptions, address details and tree controls, and
ensures that the heritage overlays cover the heritage places intended to be protected. These
changes provide for the conservation of heritage places.
How does the amendment address any environmental, social and economic
effects?
This amendment includes minor adjustments and technical corrections, and as such, this
amendment is expected to have no detrimental effects on the environment.
The amendment will have positive social and economic effects by removing unnecessary
planning restrictions that stem from incorrectly applied zones or overlays.
Does the amendment address relevant bushfire risk?
The amendment has no relevant bushfire risk given that it corrects a number of mapping
and ordinance errors in the planning scheme. The amendment does not contradict any local
policies relating to bushfire.
Does the amendment comply with the requirements of any Minister’s Direction
applicable to the amendment?
This amendment complies with Ministerial Direction – Form and Content of Planning
Schemes, and is also consistent with Ministerial Direction No.11 – Strategic Assessment of
Amendments.
The amendment is also consistent with Planning Practice Note 46 which requires that public
lands are appropriately zoned, and Planning Practice Note 1 which relates to the use of the
Heritage Overlay.
How does the amendment support or implement the State Planning Policy
Framework and any adopted State policy?
The amendment is corrective in nature and does not involve any significant changes to the
Macedon Ranges Planning Scheme, as such, this amendment has no significant impact on
the implementation of the State Planning Policy Framework or any adopted State Policy.
How does the amendment support or implement the Local Planning Policy
Framework, and specifically the Municipal Strategic Statement?
The purpose of the amendment is to correct errors and anomalies which are essentially
administrative in nature. This amendment includes minor adjustments and technical
corrections, and as such this amendment has no significant impact on the implementation of
the Local Planning Policy Framework or MSS.
The amendment generally improves land use and development directions and outcomes,
considers the effectiveness and need for land use and development controls, as well as
streamlines the administration of the scheme. The amendment is consistent with the Local
Planning Policy Framework (LPPF).
Does the amendment make proper use of the Victoria Planning Provisions?
The amendment removes and changes controls on land which would otherwise impose
unintended requirements to be met. The corrections to zone and overlays on the land
affected by the amendment will improve the general operation and effectiveness of the
Macedon Ranges Planning Scheme and, as such, ensure proper use of the Victorian
Planning Provisions.
How does the amendment address the views of any relevant agency?
The amendment has been prepared with a view to meeting the views and guidelines of
relevant government department and service authorities. Direct notification of this
amendment has been given to all relevant departments and agencies, which may make a
formal submission to the amendment if required.
Does the amendment address relevant requirements of the Transport
Integration Act 2010?
This amendment includes minor adjustments and technical corrections, as such, this
amendment is not considered to have a significant impact on the transport system. Part of
the amendment corrects the road zone, but will not have any impact on the function and use
of public roads.
Resource and administrative costs

What impact will the new planning provisions have on the resource and
administrative costs of the responsible authority?
The amendment is minor in nature and provides for the correction of errors and anomalies.

unnecessary planning permit applications for land uses, and buildings and works which meet
with the purposes and provisions of the relevant zone.
