Amendment C054 (Whitehorse)

The amendment applies to: 1 Lake Road Blackburn (The Victorian Deaf Society site). 57-69 Central Road Blackburn (The St Thomas the Apostle church and school site). 131-173 Central Road Nunawading (The Seventh Day Adventist site). The amendment proposes to replace the existing interim Significant Landscape Overlay Schedule 5 Institutional Sites over the Seventh Day Adventist St Thomas the Apostle Catholic Church and School and Victorian Deaf Society properties with a permanent Significant Landscape Overlay Schedule 5. The amendment requires a planning permit for all buildings and works and to remove destroy or lop a tree if it has a circumference of more than 0.5 metre at a height of one metre above ground level. This amendment will apply a permanent Significant Landscape Overlay Schedule 5 to three institutional sites that have been recognized for their critical location in the Blackburn Lake character area but have no vegetation control. The sites have been highlighted for their contribution to the character of the area as well as being potentially strategic development sites.
