Amendment C059 (Colac Otway)
The amendment affects land at Lavers Hill-Cobden Road and Bones Track in Kennedys Creek. The amendments delete land from the Colac Otway Planning Scheme and include the land in the Corangamite Planning Scheme. The suite of controls that have applied to the land under the Colac Otway Planning Scheme (Public Conservation and Resource Zone (PCRZ), Farming Zone (FZ), Wildfire Management Overlay (WMO) and Erosion Management Overlay (EMO)) will be applied over the land under the Corangamite Planning Scheme. This necessitates the introduction of the Erosion Management Overlay into the Corangamite Planning Scheme and changes to Clause 61.03 reflecting new maps.
