November 2020 consultation:

Cumberland City Council (Council) prepared this Planning Proposal in response to a request made by Urbis on behalf of Billbergia Pty Ltd (the Proponent) for land at 2-36 Church Street, Lidcombe (the site). The site is owned by the NSW Land and Housing Corporation, who seeks to redevelop the site for a high quality integrated residential neighborhood with a strong sense of place, close to transport, employment and community facilities.

In order to achieve the intended outcome, the Planning Proposal seeks to amend Auburn Local Environmental Plan 2010 as follows:

  • Increase the maximum height of buildings control for the site to 40m, 32m and 22m (from west to east)
  • Increase the maximum floor space ratio control for the site to 3.2:1 across the site.
