Amendment C018 (Greater Geelong)
Authorisation No A439 The land affected by the amendment consists of an overall area of approximately 63.2 hectares located approximately 4.5 kilometres to the west of Geelong on the Moorabool escarpment and west across to the Moorabool River flood plain. The eastern boundary of the site abuts the outer Geelong suburb of Hamlyn Heights which presently defines the western extent of residential development within Geelong. The eastern boundary also defines the highest point within the site. The land then slopes down to the Moorabool flood plain. Rezone part of the subject land from Rural Zone to Residential 1 Zone and Public Conservation and Resource Zone | Introduce a Land Subject to Inundation Overlay over part of the land and a Development Plan Overlay over all of the land except where there is a Public Acquisition Overlay | and Modify (by reduction) land currently subject to an Environmental Significance Overlay 1 to coincide with land that is below the 1 in 100 year flood level.
