Amendment C051 (Wodonga)

Apply a Public Use Zone (PUZ) to the land forming the route for the rail bypass in the Wodonga Planning Scheme. It introduces a revised Schedule to Clause 52.17 to exempt the project from the need to obtain a permit for the removal of native vegetation and removes the Public Acquisition Overlay (PAO8) from the Scheme. This amendment facilitates a key strategic initiative of the Wodonga Planning Scheme as part of the process toward the eventual relocation of the Melbourne to Sydney rail line from Central Wodonga. The amendment will enable the Victorian Government to commence the process of construction works for the proposed rail assets as part of the next stage of the Wodonga Rail Project involving the rail relocation and redevelopment of the Wodonga Central Business Area.
