Council invites you to review and comment on proposed changes to the Penrith Local Environmental Plan 2010 (LEP). The Planning Proposal for land at 351 - 359 High Street, Penrith (Lot 2 DP 513015 and Lot 9 DP 28199), known as the Australian Arms Hotel, seeks to:

  • increase the Height of Buildings control from 12m to 24m over part of the land (no height increase is proposed over the existing Hotel building portion of land), and
  • increase the Floor Space Ratio (FSR) control from 3:1 to 3.5:1 across all of the land.

A Planning Proposal is a request to the NSW Department of Planning and Environment to amend a Local Environmental Plan (LEP). LEPs are legal documents that guide future development through land use zones and development controls.

The NSW Department of Planning and Environment has authorised Council to exercise delegation to make this plan.

Public Exhibition

Council invited the public to comment on the proposed changes when the Planning Proposal and supporting information was publicly exhibited from Friday 31 May 2019 to Sunday 30 June 2019.

The public exhibition has finished and the deadline for written submissions has passed.

The results of the public exhibition will be reported to Council for its consideration in the coming months.
