Almost all of Drummoyne is designated LMR
With the up to 30% infill affordable building bonus “Medium Rise” can become up to 7 or possibly 8 storeys which is “High Rise”
How LMR applies to Drummoyne
The NSW State Government’s policy provides that
Within the inner ring of 400m of a Declared Town Centre up to 6 floors are allowed (potentially up to 7 or possibly 8 if the infill affordable building bonus is claimed and the requirements met)
Within the outer ring of 400m to 800m of a Declared Town Centre up to 4 floors are allowed (potentially up to 5 if the infill affordable building bonus is claimed and the requirements met)
Some of the State Government’s planning changes override local planning controls
The orange-white broken lines overlaid on the NSW Government’s indicative map are an approximate attempt at showing how far 400m may extend from the grey-shaded Drummoyne town centre.
