Attachment 3 Evaluation of External Consultation Submissions - 8 - THE ENTRANCE TOWN CENTRE MASTERPLAN Public Exhibition Period - 2 November 2011 to 30 November 2011 Evaluation of Submissions Item No Issue Recommended Action 1 The strength of the Masterplan is that it is a public and private partnership and both group of stakeholders share the responsibility in ensuring that the proposed developments become a reality in the not too distant future. Noted 2 Key Urban Design Principles are supported. Retain current Key Urban Design Principles 3 Establishment of an urban park in the centre of the town is supported. Retain urban park in centre of the town. 4 Nothing included to enhance Shore/Taylor Parks. Suggest enhance the entrance to the parks on the corner of Park Road and Dening Street and investigate moving the building that obstructs view to the parks from this entrance. Add enhancements to Shore/Taylor Park in accordance with ‘dot’ maps prepared in workshops 5 and 6. 5 The Entrance Peninsula Planning Strategy (TEPPS) places an unsustainable burden of population growth in The Entrance Peninsula without consideration of the issues relating to coastal tourist regions and problems associated with urban consolidation. Retain current masterplan approach which includes a framework, strategies and items to improve The Entrance Town Centre to make it more vibrant, viable and sustainable. The current approach is aimed at attracting the necessary investments in infrastructure, creating employment opportunities in order to sustain the future increases in population. 6 Support the current managed approach undertaken by Council to the heights proposed by the Iconic sites process, as there is a reduction of the building’s footprint that provides for more open space. Consequently, the new height guidelines are supported, in principle, on the understanding that developers in turn, will make special contributions/provisions for the benefit of the community. Retain current masterplan approach to the Iconic Sites. 7 An estimate of the total number of additional apartments and retail shops resulting from the Iconic site developments has not yet been provided. This is highly important both in terms of population sustainability and economic viability, as there is already an oversupply of retail shops. We recommend that in the light of these additional retail developments, the smaller retail centres proposed for the North Entrance and Long Jetty in TEPPS should be reviewed. Retain current masterplan approach which includes a framework, strategies and items to improve The Entrance Town Centre to make it more vibrant, viable and sustainable. The current approach is aimed at attracting the necessary investments in infrastructure, creating employment opportunities in order to sustain the future increases in population. Council is currently undertaking a review of its retail strategy which will review all centres in Wyong Shire including The Entrance North, Toowoon Bay and Long Jetty.

Executive Summary

Purposes of this Plan The primary purpose of this plan is to authorise:

Council, when granting consent to an application to carry out development to which this plan applies; or

an Accredited Certifier, when issuing a Complying Development Certificate for development to which this plan applies

to require a monetary contribution to be made towards:

the provision, extension or augmentation of community infrastructure only where development is likely to require the provision of or increase the demand for community infrastructure; and

the recoupment of the cost of providing existing community infrastructure within the area to which this plan applies.

Other purposes of this plan are:

to provide the framework for the efficient and equitable determination, collection and management of development contributions toward the provision of community infrastructure generated by development within the area;

to determine the demand for public facilities generated by the incoming population to the area and ensure that development makes a reasonable contribution toward the provision of services and facilities that are required for that population;

to ensure that the existing community is not unreasonably burdened by the provision of public infrastructure required (either partly or fully) as a result of development in the area; and

to ensure Council’s management of development contributions complies with relevant legislation and guidelines, and achieves best practice in plan format and management.

Contributions from development levied under this plan will not be used to address any backlog in the provision of works and services for the existing population, for development which has already obtained development consent at the date of preparation of this plan, or for development not requiring consent.

Objective of this Plan The objective of this plan is to determine the development contribution rates and means of providing public services and amenities in support of, and necessary for, proposed development within the Warnervale Town Centre (WTC).

Attachment 1 Draft Warnervale Town Centre Contributions Plan

Scale of Future Development The WTC will accommodate approximately 4,000 residents in up approximately 1,550 dwellings over 25 years. Residents will be accommodated in a variety of housing types including single dwellings on individual allotments, attached (duplexes & townhouses) and apartments above and within retail/commercial developments. The WTC will also accommodate up to 25,000m2 of retail floor space, up to 8,000m2 of bulky goods floor space and between 10,000m2 and 15,000m2 of commercial floor space. This development is likely to be within the civic precinct. There is likely to be significant additional non-residential floor space in the adjoining precincts. Figure 3 shows the various precincts and land uses proposed within the WTC.

Timescales Identified in this Plan Council is not able to ‘bankroll’ the works required as a consequence of development addressed under this plan and will only be able to directly provide works and services when sufficient funds have been provided by way of contributions. This plan’s works schedules however identify spending priorities. These priorities will form the basis of decisions about the order that works will be delivered and works that may be delivered using pooled funds. Given the uncertainty surrounding the mixed use multi-housing over retail/commercial development, many of the proposed open space and community facility projects will not occur in the short term. This plan will be regularly reviewed to ensure that community infrastructure is programmed and delivered in line with expected residential development. Refer to the Schedules of Works included in Appendix B for further detail on timing.

Structure of Contributions This plan applies to all development situated within the area marked ‘Contributions Plan Area’ in Figure 2 of this plan. Contributions in this plan are levied on the basis of:

the location of the development site;

the drainage catchment(s) that is relevant to the development site;

the traffic generated by the development; and

the type of development proposed. To determine the drainage catchment(s) in which a development is located, refer to Figure 8 of the plan. The total monetary contribution levied for any individual development under this plan is the sum of the contributions shown in Table 1 for the relevant catchment, less any allowance for existing development, if applicable (i.e. only net demand for infrastructure is used for calculating a contribution under this plan).

Attachment 1 Draft Warnervale Town Centre Contributions Plan

Fundamental Elements This plan seeks to levy contributions on all types of development within the WTC to cover the cost of providing appropriate facilities and infrastructure. Residential development will be levied contributions for open space and recreation facilities, community facilities, roadworks and traffic management, drainage and stormwater management, studies and administration. Contributions for residential development will be levied per hectare of net developable area (NDA) or equivalent. Non-residential development (predominantly commercial, retail and bulky goods) will be levied contributions for roads, drainage and stormwater management, studies and administration only. Contributions for roads will be levied on the projected vehicle trip generated by development, with the drainage and stormwater management and studies levied per hectare of NDA.

Apportionment of Costs Apportionment of the cost of facilities and infrastructure in this plan is based on the demand and/or traffic generated by development. Some of the facilities and infrastructure to be provided within the WTC is solely for the benefit of development within the WTC. Other facilities and infrastructure provides benefits to development in a larger catchment. In these cases, development within the WTC will only be contributing a percentage of the total cost of providing such facilities and infrastructure. For example, WTC residential development will only be contributing 40% of the cost of district sporting fields, reflecting the fact that the residents of Woongarrah, Hamlyn Terrace and Wadalba will also benefit from the provision of these sporting fields. Similarly, development within the WTC will only be required to contribute a portion to the Wyong-Warnervale Link Road based on traffic generation rates.

Summary of Facilities This plan levies contributions for, or towards, the following facilities and infrastructure Open Space and Recreation Facilities

Civic Square with an area of 2,700m2

large parks with a total area of 9.5 hectares

riparian/open space/drainage corridor totalling 5.2 hectares

district level sporting fields and multi-purpose courts with a total area of 8 hectares Community and Cultural Facilities

a library/knowledge centre that incorporates are range of community functions Roadworks

9 road works comprising of new roads, upgradings and widenings

19 intersection upgradings

Summary of Contribution Rates Table 1 provides the total contribution rates to be levied under this plan for residential development in precincts 1, 2, 3, 4 & 7b. These contribution rates are applied on a net developable area (NDA) basis. Tables 2 and 3 provide the contributions that apply to residential development in precincts 5,6a, 6b and 7a. Table 2 provides the contributions that are levied on a NDA basis with those in Table 3 levied on a development unit (DU) basis. Table 4 provides the State Infrastructure Contributions imposed by the Minister for Planning that applies to residential development in the Warnervale Town Centre. See Appendix C for details. This contribution is provided for information only and does not form part of this plan. Table 5 provides the contribution rates that are payable with respect to all non-residential development in the Warnervale Town Centre. The contribution rates shown reflect the contribution rates at the time that this plan commenced. Rates are regularly adjusted for inflation in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.6 of this plan. Applicants should inquire at Council or on Council’s website (http://www.wyong.nsw.gov.au/building-and-development/development-contributions---section-94/) for information on the latest contribution rates. Contributions that apply to a development under this plan are additional to any contributions that apply to the same development under any other contributions plan adopted by Council, and that is in force.

1 Introduction

1.1 Background The Central Coast Regional Strategy recognises the regional significance of the Warnervale Town Centre (WTC) as a new retail, commercial and community growth centre to be developed over the next 25 years. The total projected dwelling yield and resident population is based on the developable land as per the urban zonings that apply to the land.

The WTC site, as shown in Figure 1, was rezoned by the State Government on 7 November 2008 under State Environmental Planning Policy (Major Projects) 2005 (Amendment No 24), which outlines the environmental planning controls that apply to, and zoning of land within, the WTC and can be found on the NSW Legislation website (www.legislation.nsw.gov.au). The Department of Planning has prepared draft WTC Development Control Plan (DCP) to guide development, which sets residential dwelling targets and a range of design controls. 1.1.1 Minister’s Direction The Minister for Planning issued a direction under s94E of the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act 1979 on 16 September 2010 limiting local development contributions to $30,000 per lot/dwelling in greenfield areas. The Department of Planning indicated in its letter dated 22 December 2010 that the Minister will include the contributions plan in the $30,000 cap that applies to Greenfield sites once it has been adopted (Council reference: D02475769). While this plan requires the payment of contributions on a Net Developable Area basis for residential development, it can be demonstrated that the total contribution rate per dwelling is below the $30,000 cap in accordance with the Ministerial Direction (See Table 6). Section 26 (3) of the EP&A Regulations requires that Council must not approve a contributions plan that is inconsistent with any direction given to it under Section 94E of the EP & A Act.

1.2 Purpose of this Plan This plan has been prepared to determine the development contribution rates and means of providing facilities and infrastructure in support of and necessary for proposed development within the WTC. This plan provides information on:

why development contributions are being sought;

type, scale, location and timing of the expected development; and

facilities and infrastructure demanded by the expected development, together with an estimate of the cost and staging of the facilities and infrastructure.

This plan has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act 1979 (EP&A Act) and the Environmental Planning and Assessment Regulation 2000 (EP&A Regulation).

1.3 Name of this Plan This plan is called the Warnervale Town Centre Development Contributions Plan (the plan) dated December 2011.

1.4 Commencement of this Plan This development contributions plan has been prepared pursuant to the provisions of s94 of the EP&A Act and Part 4 of the EP&A Regulation and takes effect from the date on which public notice was published, pursuant to clause 31(4) of the EP&A Regulation.

1.5 Aims and Objectives The primary aim of this plan is to authorise:

Council, when granting consent to an application to carry out development to which this plan applies; or

an accredited certifier, when issuing a complying development certificate for development to which this plan;

to require a direct contribution to be made towards:

the provision, extension or augmentation of facilities and infrastructure only where development is likely to require the provision of or increase the demand for community infrastructure; and

the recoupment of the cost of providing existing facilities and infrastructure within the area to which this plan applies.

Other aims of this plan are:

to provide the framework for the efficient and equitable determination, collection and management of development contributions toward the provision of facilities and infrastructure generated by development within the area;

to determine the demand for facilities and infrastructure generated by the incoming population to the area and ensure that development makes a reasonable contribution toward the provision of services and facilities that are required for that population;

to ensure that the existing community is not unreasonably burdened by the provision of facilities and infrastructure required (either partly or fully) as a result of development in the area; and

to ensure Council’s management of development contributions complies with relevant legislation and practice notes, and achieves best practice in plan format and management.

Contributions from development levied under this plan will not be used to address any backlog in the provision of facilities and infrastructure for the existing population, for development which has already obtained development consent at the date of preparation of this plan, or for development not requiring consent.

The objectives of this plan are to:

determine the development contribution rates and means of providing facilities and infrastructure in support of, and necessary for, proposed development within the WTC; and

provide information on:

- why development contributions are being sought;

- type, scale, location and timing of the expected development; and

- facilities and infrastructure demanded by the expected development, together with an estimate of the cost and staging of facilities and infrastructure.

1.6 Land to which this Plan Applies This plan applies to land within the WTC, as shown on Figure 2.

1.7 Relationship with other Plans and Policies This Plan should be read in conjunction with State Environmental Planning Policy (Major Projects) 2005 (Amendment No 24), Warnervale Town Centre Special Infrastructure Contributions Plan October 2008, Wyong Local Environmental Plan 1991 (State Environmental Planning Policy (Major Projects) 2005 (Amendment No 24) prevails), Draft Warnervale Town Centre Development Control Plan 2011, Council’s Management Plan and Council’s codes and policies. This Plan takes precedence over any of Council’s codes and policies where there are any inconsistencies in relation to development contributions. Other contributions plans may also apply to development covered by this plan.

1.8 Savings and Transitional Arrangements A development application which has been submitted prior to the adoption of this plan but not determined shall be determined in accordance with the provisions of the plan which applied at the date of determination of the application. Section 271B of the EP&A Regulations prohibits the granting of consent to a development application prior to the adoption of a contributions plan for the WTC unless it is for minor development or the developer has entered into an agreement that makes adequate provision with respect to the matters that may be the subject of a contributions plan.

1.9 Assumptions on which this Plan is Based 1.9.1 Works Costs The majority of the works cost details for future works in this plan are based on original costs estimates indexed to May 2011. Council may amend this plan’s works costs and contribution rates to meet the effects of inflation, as discussed in Section 2.6. Council may also review works costs in conjunction with a regular review of this plan, as discussed in Section 2.12. More detail on works costs estimates are contained in various technical reports/documents prepared by Council or other external parties. A full list of reports/documents that address the costs of facilities included in this plan is contained in Appendix A of this plan. All works costs used in this plan are exclusive of Goods and Services Tax (GST). In the event that legislation changes and contribution attract the GST, the contribution payable will include the additional GST charge. 1.9.2 Land Costs Land values were originally based on October 2006 valuations. Updated valuations were obtained in May 2010 and these are the values used for the determination of land costs under this plan. All land costs used in this plan are exclusive of Goods and Services Tax (GST). In the event that legislation changes and contribution attract the GST, the contribution payable will include the additional GST charge.

1.10 Structure of this Plan Section 1 of this plan outlines the background to preparation of this plan and the expected development within the WTC. It discusses the legislation that permits and governs the imposition of contributions in accordance with this plan and addresses various legislative requirements. Section 2 of this plan contains all of the elements required by the legislation to ensure the plan is administered in an orderly, reasonable and transparent manner. It ensures that developers required to pay contributions in accordance with this plan are aware of how funds will be collected, held and spent and in what timeframe. Section 3 of this plan provides a land budget and identifies expected future development in the area affected by this plan. Section 4 of this plan provides the need for facilities and infrastructure generated by projected development. It also establishes and addresses the principles of nexus and apportionment.

2.3 How will Contributions be Imposed? 2.3.1 Development Contributions for Community Infrastructure may be Required

as a Condition of Consent This plan authorises Council or an accredited certifier, when determining a development application or an application for a complying development certificate relating to development to which this plan applies, to impose a condition under section 116G(1)(a) of the EP&A Act requiring:

the payment of a monetary contribution; and/or

the dedication of land free of cost to Council towards the provision, extension or augmentation of facilities and infrastructure as specified in this plan to meet the demands of the development. This plan also authorises Council to require monetary contributions from development towards recouping the cost of the provision of existing facilities and infrastructure that has been provided by Council for or to facilitate the carrying out of development and which the development will benefit from. 2.3.2 Contributions for Land for Community Infrastructure Required under this

Plan This plan authorises Council, through the imposition of a condition of development consent, to require in connection with any development on land to which this plan applies:

the dedication of land for facilities and infrastructure free of cost to Council; and/or

the payment of a monetary contribution to Council for land for facilities and infrastructure that is required to enable the provision of facilities and infrastructure identified in this plan

Page 68: THE ENTRANCE TOWN CENT - cdn.centralcoast.nsw.gov.au

Attachment 1 Draft Warnervale Town Centre Contributions Plan

- 75 -

Wherever land required under this plan is situated within a development site, Council will generally require the developer of that land to dedicate the land required under this plan free of cost and free of any improvements, structures or other impediments which would restrict or hinder its future use or development for the purposes for which it is being acquired, unless otherwise agreed by Council. The land is also to be dedicated in an appropriate state, free of any refuse, contamination, or the like, unless otherwise agreed by Council. The value of this land will be taken into account in determining the total monetary contributions required by the development under this plan. Council may require dedication of particular land as a condition of consent where the value of the land dedicated exceeds the contribution due for provision of this particular type of land. This excess value may, subject to Council’s written concurrence, form a credit to the developer which may be transferred to contributions obligations accruing in relation to other developments in the area affected by this contributions plan that are acted upon by the developer. The excess value (credit) can only be used to offset future contribution obligations on a like for like basis (e.g. an excess value resulting for the dedication of open space land can only be used to offset future contribution obligations for open space land and open space works contributions).

2.4 Obligations of Accredited Certifiers 2.4.1 Certifying Authority Must Require Payment of the Levy as a Condition of

Issuing a Complying Development Certificate Pursuant to Section 85A & 94EC of the EP&A Act, this plan requires a certifying authority (the Council or an accredited certifier) to issue a complying development certificate in respect of development to which this plan applies subject to a condition requiring the applicant to pay to the Council the applicable contributions under this plan either:

prior to the commencement of work where building or subdivision works are involved; or

prior to the issue of the occupation certificate where no building works are involved. Prior to the commencement of a use where not building works are involved.

If a Minister’s direction under Section 94E is in force, this plan authorises the certifying authority to issue a complying development certificate subject to a condition which is in accordance with that direction.

2.5 Obligations of Certifying Authorities In accordance with clause 146 of the EP&A Regulation, a certifying authority must not issue a construction certificate for the building work or subdivision work under a development consent unless it has verified that each condition requiring the payment of a levy has been satisfied The certifying authority must ensure that the applicant provides a receipt(s) that levies have been fully paid prior to the issue of any certificates. Copies of such receipts must be included with copies of certified plans provided to the council in accordance with clause 142(2) of the EP&A Regulation. Failure to follow this procedure may render such a certificate invalid.

Page 69: THE ENTRANCE TOWN CENT - cdn.centralcoast.nsw.gov.au

Attachment 1 Draft Warnervale Town Centre Contributions Plan

- 76 -

Prior to the commencement of building works approved under a complying development certificate, a certifying authority must ensure that the applicant provides a receipt(s) that levies have been fully paid. Copies of such receipt(s) must be provided to the council with the notification to Council of the commencement of works. Failure to follow this procedure may render such a certificate invalid.

2.6 Indexation 2.6.1 Indexation of Contribution Rates The purpose of this section is to ensure that the monetary contribution rates imposed at the time of development consent are adjusted to reflect the indexed cost of the provision of infrastructure included in this plan. This applies to both land and works. Council may, without the necessity of preparing a new or amending contributions plan, make changes to the monetary contribution rates set out in this plan to reflect quarterly changes to the Consumer Price Index. The monetary contribution rates will be indexed as follows:

$CA X Current CPI Base CPI

Where: $CA is the monetary contribution rate at the time of adoption of this plan expressed in dollars. Current CPI is the Consumer Price Index (All Groups Index) for Sydney as published by the Australian Statistician at the time of the review of the contribution rate Base CPI is the Consumer Price Index (All Groups Index) for Sydney as published by the Australian Statistician at the date of adoption of this plan Note: The contribution rates shall not be index if the application of the index will result in a reduction in the contribution rates. Indexing shall recommence once indexing results in an increase in the contribution rate. Council will also regularly review the costs of land to be acquired under this plan. These reviews will be carried out by a registered valuer and any adjustment of land values in this plan will require amendment and public exhibition of this plan. 2.6.2 Indexation of Contributions Imposed under a Condition of Consent The purpose of this section is to ensure that the monetary contributions imposed on developments at the time of consent are adjusted at the time of payment to reflect the indexed cost of the provision of community infrastructure included in this plan. A contribution required by a condition of development consent imposed in accordance with this plan will be indexed between the date of the grant of the consent and the date on which the contribution is made as follows.

Page 70: THE ENTRANCE TOWN CENT - cdn.centralcoast.nsw.gov.au

Attachment 1 Draft Warnervale Town Centre Contributions Plan

- 77 -

The contributions stated in a development consent is calculated on the basis of the development contribution rates determined in accordance with this plan. If the contributions are not paid within the quarter in which consent is granted, the contributions payable will be adjusted and the amount payable will be calculated on the basis of the contribution rates that are applicable at the time of payment in the following manner:

$CP = $CDC + [ $CDC X ($CQ – $ CC) ] $CC

Where: $CP is the amount of the contribution calculated at the time of payment $CDC is the amount of the original contribution as set out in the development consent $CQ is the contribution rate applicable at the time of payment $CC is the contribution rate applicable at the time of the original consent The current contribution rates are published by Council and are available on Council’s website (http://www.wyong.nsw.gov.au/building-and-development/development-contributions---section-94/). Should Council not validly publish the applicable contribution rates, the rate applicable will be calculated in accordance with the most recent validly published rate.

2.7 Material Public Benefits and Dedication of Land Offered in Part or Full Satisfaction of Contributions

A person may make an offer to Council to carry out works or provide another kind of material public benefit or dedicate land, in lieu of making a contribution in accordance with a condition imposed under this plan, in the terms described below. An offer of this type may be accepted if the offer is deemed by Council to represent an "equivalent material public benefit". A developer is required to make prior written representations to Council at which time the proposal may be considered. Council encourages developers to provide works-in-kind (i.e. works identified in this plan) in lieu of making cash contributions provided prior written agreement is reached with Council. Approval to offset contributions will not be automatic. Applications will be considered on their merits (refer Section 2.7.1 below) and where considered appropriate, offsets will only be considered on a like for like basis. Water and sewerage contributions will not be offset against contributions determined in accordance with this plan; rather they will be offset against the contributions determined in accordance with the relevant Development Servicing Plan. Where the value of a particular work-in-kind exceeds the contribution due for that work, this excess value may, subject to Council's written concurrence, form a credit to the developer which will be repaid either at the time identified in a Works In Kind Agreement entered into before the grant of a development consent (or as soon as practicable after and prior to the commencement of works) or once all of the following criteria have been met:

all of the developer’s land within the area serviced by the subject land has been developed and all relevant (like for like) contributions have been offset against the credit value; and

Page 71: THE ENTRANCE TOWN CENT - cdn.centralcoast.nsw.gov.au

Attachment 1 Draft Warnervale Town Centre Contributions Plan

- 78 -

a minimum of 75% of the areas benefiting from the credited land have contributed to the scheme; and

if sufficient uncommitted funds exist in the fund. Valuation of offers of material public benefits will be carried out in accordance with Section 2.7.3. 2.7.1 Matters to be Considered by Council in Determining Offers of Material Public

Benefits Council will take into account the following matters in deciding whether to accept an offer of material public benefit:

the requirements contained in any material public benefits or works-in-kind policy that Council has adopted; and

the standard and timing of delivery of, and security arrangements applying to, the works the subject of the offer are to Council's satisfaction; and

the conditions applying to the transfer of the asset to Council are to Council's satisfaction; and

the provision of the material public benefit will not prejudice the timing or the manner of the provision of public facilities included in the works program.

Where the offer of material public benefit does not relate to an item of infrastructure identified in this contributions plan, Council will take into account the following additional matters:

the overall benefit of the proposal; and

whether the works schedule included this plan would require amendment; and

the financial implications for cash flow and the continued implementation of the works schedule included in this plan (including whether Council would need make up for any shortfall in contributions by its acceptance of the offer); and

the implications of funding the recurrent cost of the facility(s) the subject of the offer. 2.7.2 Agreements to be in Writing Council will require the applicant to enter into a written Works In Kind Agreement for the provision of the works the grant of a development consent (or as soon as practicable after and prior to the commencement of works). If the offer is made by way of a draft planning agreement under the EP&A Act, Council will require the agreement to be entered into and performed via a condition in the development consent. Works In Kind Agreements or any other kind of agreement shall be made between Council and the developer and (if the developer is not the land owner) the land owner. Agreements shall specify (as a minimum) the works the subject of the offer, the agreed value of those works, the relationship between those works and this plan, the program for delivering the works. Planning agreements shall address the matters included in the EP&A Act and EP&A Regulation. 2.7.3 Valuation of Offers of Works-In-Kind and Other Material Public Benefits The value of works offered as works-in-kind is the attributable cost of the works (or a proportion of the attributable cost if the offer involves providing only part of a work) indexed in accordance with the provisions of this plan.

Page 72: THE ENTRANCE TOWN CENT - cdn.centralcoast.nsw.gov.au

Attachment 1 Draft Warnervale Town Centre Contributions Plan

- 79 -

The attributable cost of works will be used in the calculation of the value of any offset of monetary contributions required under this plan. The value of any other kind of material public benefit will be determined by a process agreed to between Council and the person making the offer at the time the development application is being prepared and having regard to Council’s Planning Agreements Policy. 2.7.4 Dedication of Land in Part or Full Satisfaction of a Contribution Required

Under this Plan Subject to prior written agreement with Council, land may be dedicated in lieu of making a contribution towards the acquisition of land required under this plan. Council will only accept land dedication where that land is of a suitable nature for the purpose for which it is being dedicated. All land to be dedicated to Council is to be free of any improvements, structures or other impediments which would restrict or hinder its future use or development for the purposes for which it is being acquired, unless otherwise agreed by Council. The land is also to be dedicated in an appropriate state, free of any refuse, contamination, or the like, unless otherwise agreed by Council. 2.7.5 Temporary Works It may be feasible to provide temporary measures to service initial stages of development in lieu of constructing major works up front. Such proposals will need to be assessed at the time of application and provision of such works will be the sole responsibility of the particular applicant, except where any part of them forms part of a work identified in this contribution plan (in which case that part will be treated as works in kind). The cost of temporary works not recognised as works in kind cannot be offset against any other contributions required under this plan.

2.8 Planning Agreements A developer may make an offer to enter into a planning agreement with Council (or another consent authority, where applicable) in lieu of having contributions applied under this plan. Offers should be made in writing prior to the lodgement of a development application. If practicable, the agreement should be advertised as part of and contemporaneously with, and in the same manner as, advertising of the development proposal and executed prior to the granting of development consent. If this is not practicable, the terms of the agreement must be reflected in a condition of consent and the agreement must be advertised and executed in accordance with the agreed terms as soon as practicable after the issue of development consent. Developers considering entering into a planning agreement must have regard to Council’s Planning Agreements Policy (available on Council’s website) and Part 5B Division 4 of the EP& A Act.

2.9 Timing of Payment Council’s policy in relation to the timing of payments of monetary contributions required under this plan is as follows:

development applications involving subdivision: prior to the release of the subdivision certificate (linen plans);

Page 73: THE ENTRANCE TOWN CENT - cdn.centralcoast.nsw.gov.au

Attachment 1 Draft Warnervale Town Centre Contributions Plan

- 80 -

development applications involving building work: prior to the release of the construction certificate;

development applications where no subdivision or building approval is required: prior to the commencement of the use;

complying development works: prior to the issue of a complying development certificate.

2.10 Deferred and Periodic Payments Council will generally not accept deferred or periodic payment of contributions required under this plan. Council has, however formulated a policy in relation to the negotiation and preparation of planning agreements which provides for the consideration of deferred or periodic payments. Consideration of requests for deferral of contributions will involve careful consideration of community/public infrastructure delivery and financial implications for Council.

2.11 Exemptions Council will only exempt development from the payment of monetary contributions levied under this plan in accordance with a direction issued by the Minister under Section 94(e) of the EP&A Act. See the NSW Department of Planning’s website for a list of section 94(e) directions relevant to Wyong Shire. For development proposed by the Crown as a private developer (e.g. Landcom subdivision of land), contributions will be applied in the same manner as they would be for a private development. For developments proposed by the Crown which provide a public service (e.g. school, court house, hospital), contributions will be assessed based on the demand for community infrastructure.

2.12 The Review Process This plan will be reviewed at regular intervals and may be revised if the extent or nature of the proposed development varies and these variations lead to a change in the demand for community infrastructure. Review/revision of this plan is to ensure that:

this plan remains financially sustainable;

this plan continues to address the other infrastructure needs generated by new development;

the community infrastructure will be delivered in a reasonable time; and

that contribution rates remain reasonable over time.

Page 74: THE ENTRANCE TOWN CENT - cdn.centralcoast.nsw.gov.au

Attachment 1 Draft Warnervale Town Centre Contributions Plan

- 81 -

Matters to be addressed may include (but not necessarily be limited to) the following:

changing estimates of the costs of the infrastructure items;

adjusting estimated costs to completed costs for completed community infrastructure; and

review of the need for community infrastructure demanded by development. Review, amendment and updating of this plan (except for the types of amendments specified in clause 32(3) of the EP&A Regulation) will require preparation and public exhibition of a new contributions plan. Table 8 Plan Amendments

Date Nature of Revision

December 2011 No previous versions

2.13 Accounting and Management of Funds 2.13.1 Accounting Standards Council is, and will continue to be, complaint with current legislation and accounting standards. 2.13.2 Contributions Register Council is required to comply with a range of financial accountability and public access to information requirements in relation to development contributions. These are addressed in Divisions 5 and 6 of Part 4 of the EP&A Regulation and include:

maintenance of, and public access to, a contributions register;

maintenance of, and public access to, accounting records for contributions receipts and expenditure;

annual financial reporting of contributions; and

public access to contributions plans and supporting documents.

These records are available for inspection free of charge at Council’s administration office. Some of this information is also available on Council’s website. 2.13.3 Accounting Treatment Council keeps a Development Contributions Register which is prepared in accordance with, and meets the requirements of, Sections 35 and 36 of the EP&A Regulation. Information relating to Development Contributions is contained in Note 17 of Council’s Annual Financial Statements and complies with Clause 35(3) of the EP&A Regulation and the reporting requirements of the Department of Premier and Cabinet, Division of Local Government.

2.13.4 Treatment of Funds held by Council prior to the Commencement of this Plan Council did not hold any development contributions funds for the WTC prior to the commencement of this plan. Income for district open space and community, cultural and social facilities is currently held within other development contributions plans 2.13.5 Pooling of Contributions To provide a strategy for the orderly delivery of community infrastructure, this plan authorises monetary contributions paid:

for different purposes in accordance with the conditions of various development consents authorised by this plan; and

for different purposes under any other development contributions plan approved by Council. to be pooled and applied progressively for those purposes. The priorities for the expenditure of pooled monetary contributions under this plan are the priorities for works as set out in the relevant works schedules in Appendix B. In deciding whether to pool and progressively apply contributions funds, Council is satisfied that this action will not unreasonably prejudice the carrying into effect, within a reasonable time, of the purposes for which the money was originally paid.

2.14 Timing of Works Council is generally not able to bankroll proposed works required as a consequence of development proposed under this Plan and will only be able to provide works and services when sufficient funds have been provided by way of contributions. Priority spending of contributions may, however, be directed to particular items identified in this Plan and this has been considered in formulating works schedules. Actual timing of the works will be dependent on development patterns and funds available from development contributions.

3 Land Budget and Projections This section is intended to provide basic information that is used to apportion the cost of works and land. The Land budget enables the net developable area to be determined. The dwelling yields are used to generate population projection.

3.1 Land Budget The land budget for the Warnervale Town Centre (WTC) is provided in Table 9, and should be read in conjunction with Figure 3, which is based on the Warnervale Town Centre Development Control Plan (WTC DCP). Table 9 Land Use Budget Summary

Zone Area (ha)Total R1, B2 & B4 Zoned Land

(ha)

% of total Site Area

Residential 1 R1 39.370

Business 22 B2 8.591 54.243

Business 4 B4 6.281

Recreation RE1 11.321 9.4%

Environmental buffer E2 12.700 10.6%

Environmental E3 1.209 1.0%

School SP1 7.758 6.5%

Railway SP2 4.483 3.7%

Total Zoned Area 91.713 76.5%

Road Area 28.117 23.5%

Total Site Area 119.83 100.0%

1 Includes 1.338 ha super clinic.

2 Includes 0.204 ha drainage basin in northern catchment.

45.3%

In summary there is 54.243 ha of land zoned for residential, commercial, retail and bulky goods use (Zones R1, B2 & B4), which represents 45.3% of the total site. A small area (0.204 ha) within Precinct 5 zoned B2 will be unavailable for development because it has been identified for the siting of a detention basin. Excluding this area provides a net developable area of 52.701 ha.

3.2 Projected Dwelling Yield and Population The total number of dwellings and population that can be accommodated in those dwellings has been determined based on the developable land and assumptions about the residential housing mix and occupancy rates. These projections and the associated assumptions are provided in Table 10. The DCP provides targets for residential use within the B2 and B4 zoned (precincts 5, 6a, 6b & 7a), which will likely be provided in multi-storey mix use buildings. Council has discounted the targets under the DCP in preference for more conservative having regard for the potential of non-residential uses to displace residential uses and the current residential market in this non-metropolitan location. Table 11 provides a summary of the total number of dwelling types that are assumed.

3.3 Business Uses The WTC will also accommodate up to 25,000m2 of retail floor space, up to 8,000m2 of bulky goods floor space and between 10,000m2 and 15,000m2 of commercial floor space. It is likely that the bulk of this non-residential use will occur within Precinct 6a. No estimates, targets or limitations have been provided in the DCP for business use in the other business zoned precincts (Precincts 5, 6b & 7a). The plan assumes that there will be an additional 16,000 m2 of undefined non-residential floor space outside Precinct 6a that will likely generates and estimated 8000 vehicle trips per day.

Attachment 1 Draft Warnervale Town Centre Contributions Plan

- 88 -

4 Facilities and Infrastructure The Warnervale Town Centre (WTC) is expected to be developed in accordance with the zoning of the area under State Environmental Planning Policy (Major Projects) 2005 (Amendment No 24), Wyong Local Environmental Plan 1991 and the WTC DCP 2008. Table 9 identifies the total area of each zoning within the WTC. Section 3.2 identifies that there are 1,550 dwellings predicted within the WTC and a projected population of 4,000 based on the assumed occupancy rates and mix of dwelling types. Prior to the commencement of development within the WTC, the public infrastructure that existed was minimal and in keeping with the area’s historic role as a rural area with sections of remnant native vegetation. The only community infrastructure project delivered to date is the signalised intersection of Sparks Road and Minnesota Road, which provides safe access to Mary MacKillop Catholic College. Development in the WTC, and the population that will occupy such development, can only be sustained by a significant investment in the provision, extension and augmentation of facilities and infrastructure. Council has identified that the expected development will generate increased demands for the types of community infrastructure listed in Table 12. Table 12 Identified Facilities and Infrastructure

Community Infrastructure Category Community Infrastructure Required

Open Space and Recreation Land for open space and recreation facilities

Small local parks

Large local parks

Contribution towards sports fields and multipurpose courts (district)

Cycleways and pedestrian access ways

Multi-purpose drainage / open space / environmental conservation area

Community, Cultural and Social Land for community, cultural and social facilities

Contribution towards library / community centre (district)

Roadworks and Traffic Management Land for roads and traffic management facilities

Construction of full roads through open space areas and half road along the railway line side of development

Intersection treatments, including roundabouts and traffic signals

Stormwater Management Land for stormwater management facilities

Stormwater management facilities (active storage & detention basins)

Local and regional stormwater transfer pipeline and pumps

Studies and Investigations Studies & Investigations into various impacts reports and concept designs

Contributions Plan Administration Staff and resources to administer the contributions plan

Studies, land valuations and reviews

Council considers it appropriate that the development requiring this infrastructure make a reasonable contribution toward the provision of it. The costs and programs of works relating to this infrastructure were derived from investigations listed in Appendix A of this plan. Estimates of costs and staging are shown in works schedules in Appendix B of this plan. Discussion and more detail on:

the future demand for community infrastructure;

the relationship of the infrastructure with the expected development;

the strategies for the delivery of the infrastructure; and

the calculation of reasonable development contributions are included in the following sections.

4.1 Open Space and Recreation Facilities Development of the WTC generates a residential, commuter and visitor population that will require access to open space developed and embellished with facilities to provide a broad range of recreation and leisure opportunities located to provide equitable access to those open space facilities. There are no existing developed open space or recreation facilities within the WTC that provide for the needs of new residents. Open space and recreation facilities identified in this plan reflect the requirements of the WTC DCP 2008 and details use the principles of the Wyong Open Space Principles Plan, the Wyong Local Parks Strategy and the Recreation Facilities Strategy. The open space system proposed for the WTC is made up of interlinked components that may have differing objectives. They provide a range of recreation and leisure functions and settings for the community which may be overlapping on the same site. Open space will support social engagement, play, incidental exercise, movement and organised recreation in a vibrant and safe public domain. Open space will protect and conserve biodiversity, visual and physical amenity. It will also provide settings and peripheral treatments for the Water Sensitive Urban Design management and harvesting of Urban Stormwater runoff. Social Open Space is a key support to the suite of community facilities planned for the WTC. Opportunities will be sought to integrate public art in all Open Space. There will be consistent high quality design and embellishment in public areas throughout the WTC. The components of Open Space needs that have been identified are listed as follows:

District Open Space (incorporating Local Open Space functions within them) This form of open space provides key activity areas developed to a high level and scale to accommodate organised sport, intensive recreation and passive leisure activities by larger recreation numbers and groups, sporting participants and the users of the shopping centre.

Page 83: THE ENTRANCE TOWN CENT - cdn.centralcoast.nsw.gov.au

Attachment 1 Draft Warnervale Town Centre Contributions Plan

- 90 -

District Open Space includes the following facilities:

Civic Square;

District Sporting Fields and Courts (South of Sparks Road);

District youth skate plaza facility developed in conjunction with the Warnervale library / community centre.

Local Open Space This form of open space is developed to a level and scale that accommodates recreation and leisure activities by smaller groups and located to be accessible to the residents of the precinct they are located in and to support and encourage social cohesion and engagement. This form of open space includes the following:

Hilltop Park is an Urban Park developed to a high standard;

Smaller Local Parks in each distinct area of the WTC;

Contribution to the District Sporting Fields and Courts. Nodal and Linear Parks (function partially as Local Open Space and other Open Space) This form of open space is identified to satisfy objectives such as ecological values, water treatment, visual quality and asset protection but also have a recreation role. Because of their location, shape, physical attributes and amenity they will attract leisure use and movement. This form of open space includes the following:

Riparian Corridor;

Ridge Top Parks;

Asset Protection Zones;

Landscaped Buffers. Open Space Component Descriptions A description of each component is provided below. Details of the various open spaces are provided in Table 13. Figure 4 shows the location of open space within and adjoining the WTC. 1 The Civic Square is intensively developed to provide a high quality and high amenity setting for

intensive use for a variety of civic, community and retail purposes. 2 & 3 The Ridge Top Parks (Ridge Park East & Ridge Park West) will be developed to provide play,

resting, leisure and interpretive opportunities for users in nodal areas of recreation development within the treed ridgeline parcel and linked by a corridor pathway system. They will be developed with an intensive core recreation area on flatter, cleared areas and planted areas on the steeper perimeter slopes.

4 The Hilltop Park is located centrally to the WTC and developed to provide play opportunities for a

wide range of ages and abilities.

This park is a district focal point developed to accommodate large numbers of people for intensive recreation use. It will also retain tall canopy trees to provide a treed silhouette from Sparks Road. It provides an essential recreation facility.

Attachment 1 Draft Warnervale Town Centre Contributions Plan

- 91 -

5 The Riparian Corridor will have peripheral pathway, recreation and exercise development to minimise the impact of leisure use and movement through the Riparian Corridor.

6 The District Sporting Fields and Courts are provided as the major opportunity for organised sport

and active recreation to serve the WTC and as a focal point for Warnervale. 7 Heath Wrinklewort Reserve located on the western side of the Railway corridor contains native

vegetation that has a high conservation value. This vegetation precludes the development of this land. This land is not an area that will be purchased under this Contributions Plan.

4.1.1 Apportionment The total cost of open space land, embellishment and recreation facilities attributable to development in the WTC is apportioned between residential development and non-residential development. The cost is apportioned between residential and non-residential on a ratio of 8:2. The 80% apportioned to residential development will be apportion on the basis of the projected residential population, with the 20% apportioned to non-residential development being apportioned by total projected gross floor area. Table 14 illustrates the apportionment of the costs between the assumed residential and non-residential development. The levying of open space contributions on non-residential uses is in recognition that there will be significant benefits derived from the provision of such open space and recreational amenities by business. These benefits are associated with the future use of open space land and amenities by employees and commercial patrons that reside elsewhere. This applies in particular to the civic square and Hilltop Park that provide a direct amenity to employees and patrons. Table 14 Apportionment between Residential and Non Residential Uses

% apport. Total Land Costs Total Land Costs

Non-residential Development 20% $2,512,046 $2,849,241

TOTAL 100% $12,560,230 $14,246,205

4.1.2 Calculation of the Contribution Rate Residential Development (NDA) Residential development within the R1 Residential zone (precincts 1, 2, 3, 4 & 7b) will be levied on a NDU basis, while residential development in the B2 & B4 zones (precincts 5, 6a, 6b & 7a) will be levied on a DU basis. The determination of the Precinct NDA rate for open space land, embellishment & recreational facilities and the monetary contribution payable for a development is as follows:

CostPrec ($) = Costtotal x Popprec Poptotal Contribnda ($) = Costprec NDAprec Contribtotal ($) = Contribnda x Areadev

Where: Costprec is the total cost of open space (land & works) attributable to the projected residential population for the selected precinct Costtotal is the total cost of open space (land & works) attributable to residential development in the WTC Popprec – is the total projected residential population for the selected precinct

Residential Development (DU) Residential development in the B2 & B4 zones (precincts 5, 6a, 6b & 7a) will be levied on a DU basis. This approach has been taken in recognition that the mixed commercial /residential nature of this zone, makes the use of the NDA methodology potential inequitable. The determination of the DU rate for open space land, embellishment and recreational facilities and the monetary contribution payable for a development is as follows:

Contribper ($) = Costprec ($) Popprec Contribdu ($) = Contribper ($) x Occdu Contribtotal ($) = Contribdu ($) x DUprop

Where: Contribper is the total contribution payable for open space (land & works) per person. Costprec is the total cost of open space (land & works) attributable to the projected residential population for precincts 5, 6a, 6b & 7a Popprec is the total projected residential population for precincts 5, 6a, 6b & 7a Contribdu is the total contribution payable for open space (land & works) for a development unit Occdu is the occupancy rate per DU i.e. 2.92 persons per dwelling Contribtotal is the total contribution payable in respect to a development proposal DUprop is the number of DU’s proposed Table 16 provides the contribution per person, which is the first step in determining the DU rate.

Non-Residential Development (GFA) Non-residential development will make a small contribution towards open space land and embellishment on the basis of the gross floor area (GFA) that is proposed. The determination of the GFA rate for open space land, embellishment and recreational facilities for non-residential developments and the monetary contribution payable for a development is as follows:

Contribgfa ($) = Costnon-res ($) GFAtotal Contribtotal ($) = Contribgfa ($) x Devgfa

Where: Contribgfa is the total contribution payable for open space (land & works) per GFA Costnon-res is the total cost of open space (land & works) attributable to the projected non-residential uses GFAtotal is the total projected GFA for non-residential use in the WTC i.e. 64,000 m2 Contribtotal is the total contribution payable in respect to a development proposal Devgfa is the GFA proposed by a development Table 18 provides the contribution rates that apply to commercial development Table 18 Contributions per rate per GFA of Non-Residential Uses

4.2 Community and Cultural Facilities Council provides a network of community facilities throughout the Shire. These community facilities provide space for community members and local groups and organisations to meet, and for the delivery of a range of community support services, programs and activities which address the social needs of the community. Community facilities play an important role as a focal point for community activities and for building a sense of community. There is much evidence, from Australia and elsewhere, that community facilities improve people’s quality of life. “Investing in new and improved community facilities is important because such facilities help build communities, keep people healthy and happy and provide opportunities for individuals to improve and learn” (Montgomery, 2005) (WSC, Draft Community Facilities Strategy). 4.2.1 Baseline Community Services and Facilities The concept of a ‘baseline’ level of community services and facilities is broadly accepted across NSW as a reasonable and practical guide in determining the number and type of facilities per head of population. This concept has been applied to both the local neighbourhood level facilities and the broader district level of provision. The standard for a local/neighbourhood centre is 1 facility per 3,500 to 6,000 people, and the standard for a district facility is 1 facility per 10,000 to 20,000 people (Wyong Shire Council Guidelines for the Planning and Provision of Community Facilities June 2000, see Briggs 1992, Nesbitt/Donahee 1992, and the Human Service Planning Kit, South Australian Urban Land Trust 2nd Edition 1994). These standards have been developed by many local governments in Australia based on recommendations from government departments such as the Department of Community Services and the Department of Planning. Providing a network of community facilities is one way which Council can have an impact on the social problems of the Shire. While a community facility will not solve the social issues of the Shire, it goes some way to addressing the infrastructure needs of the growing community. 4.2.2 Specific Analysis of the Warnervale / Wadalba Area In 1999 Wyong Shire Council and state government human services agencies identified the need to prepare and implement a Community Support and Human Services Strategy for Warnervale/Wadalba. The purpose of this strategy was to develop a planning framework to strengthen neighbourhood and community networks and to co-ordinate the planning and timely provision of human facilities and services in the Warnervale/Wadalba Social Planning District commensurate with population growth. The strategy, completed in 2002, identifies the advantage of a hierarchy of community facilities based on ‘local’ and ‘district’ facilities. The project was carried out under the auspices of the Central Coast Regional Co-ordination Management Group (RCMG), established by the NSW Premier’s Department. A Human Services Planning Team (HSPT) has created and delegated responsibility for implementing the strategy. The HSPT has representation from the core state government agencies that provide human services for the region and Wyong Shire Council. In 2002, consultant Paul Van Reyk was engaged by the HSPT to prepare a feasibility study and develop a business case for Integrated Service Provision. The study recommended three community facilities be included in the WTC; these being a Community Development/ Learning Centre, an Integrated Family Centre and a Youth Centre. In 2003 a Community Facilities Study was undertaken to plan the provision of human services and community facilities within the WTC in further detail. The proposed facilities underwent further analysis and assessment throughout this process.

Decisions were made on the basis of delivering an integrated approach to planning and provision of human services and took the following points into account:

the research and recommendations in the Paul van Reyk report;

the philosophy, assessment of demand and implementation strategies as documented in the Community Support and Human Services Strategy;

population projections for the area that the WTC will potentially service;

benchmarks and population thresholds;

extensive consultation;

service mapping and data analysis results;

trends in service delivery and policy;

access and equity issues for key target and minority groups; and

reference material for service requirements. The following six community facilities were identified in the 2003 study as being core to the WTC:

Community Art and Cultural Facility;

Knowledge / Learning Centre / Government Transaction Centre;

Indoor Aquatic and Recreation Centre;

Integrated Child and Family Centre;

North Wyong Primary Care Network (no longer required); and

Youth Space. The requirements for each of the above facilities have been continually reviewed and updated by the HSPT since 2003 in response to:

location of the WTC – Continual change in location of the WTC and the location of community facilities within the WTC;

the final determination by State Government for the WTC at ‘The Top of the Hill’ on Woolworths land has impacted to some extent on the original plans for the community facilities (for example: due to the compact nature of the TC location there is a requirement for community facilities to locate within multi storey premises);

the provision of a GP Super Clinic and associated health care facilities within the boundary of the WTC (to be delivered by private operators) means that the North Wyong Primary Health Care facility is no longer required and will not be funded through this plan;

lack of space within the WTC to provide all the required elements of a facility. This has resulted in elements from the other proposed facilities that are able to be delivered being incorporated in the Library/ Community Centre;

changes in legislation and Section 94 funding availability, resulting in a decision to construct 1 facility only in the WTC known as the Library/ Community Centre; and

the provision of a GP Super Clinic and associated health care facilities within the boundary of the WTC (to be delivered by private operators) means that the North Wyong Primary Health Care facility is no longer required and will not be funded through this plan.

A description of the Library / Community Centre is detailed below. 4.2.3 Library / Community Centre The Library/ Community Centre will be a focal point within the WTC. The aim of the facility is to provide a mix of government, non-government and community initiated activities. The facility has distinct components being a library, a community centre, a café and commercial kitchen, arts and cultural spaces, creative enterprise retail pods and a government transaction centre. In the short to medium term the Knowledge Centre is intended as a Stage 1 facility, to be constructed and fitted out to the full 2,700m2 and integrated with the retail and commercial functions of the WTC. Due to the lack of Section 94 Funding availability, the key elements and functions of the Integrated Child and Family Centre, the Youth Space, and the Arts and Cultural Centre will be permanently incorporated into the Library/ Community Centre. Library The Guide for Public Library Buildings in NSW was used as the reference document to assess need and service requirements:

10 years population 18,006 justifies a 710 square metre library;

20 years population 32,219 justifies a 2,244 square metre library. The benchmark for libraries includes areas for telephones, foyer, lobby, toilet and restrooms; all of which will be located within the attached Learning and Community Centre. In 10 years the Learning and Community Centre will house a 710 square metre library. The remaining 1534 square metres not used by the library within the next 20 years will be allocated to the Learning and Community Centre and other uses. The library will expand to it’s full size commensurate with population growth Community Centre The aim of the Community Centre component is to provide a mix of government, non-government and community initiated activities. The Learning and Community Centre will comprise internet access islands, computer training rooms, various meeting and activity rooms, main activity and function rooms, and telecommuting rooms. Government Transaction Centre A number of government agencies have identified the need to have a central location within the Shire. Many have identified Warnervale as the most appropriate location. This will increase people’s access to government services and enable people to access all three levels of government in one place to ask questions, pay bills etc.

Café and Commercial Kitchen The café and commercial kitchen will operate under a social enterprise model and will be staffed by young people undertaking hospitality courses to provide vocational training opportunities. Arts and Cultural Spaces These spaces within the Library/ Community Centre will be part of a network of Arts and Cultural facilities in the Shire. These components are based on providing public spaces for community members to learn new skills, as well as public exhibition space, both representing major gaps in the Northern parts of the Shire. Creative Enterprise Retail Pods Allocation of these spaces provide real opportunities for young people to put their skills, training and passion into practice. The aim of the pods is for young people to start up small businesses in the pods, utilising their creative skills and gain on- the- job business skills with support and mentoring by the local business sector. 4.2.4 Section 94E Direction Council has reduced the community land and facilities that have been identified as being required to serve the projected population in the various studies and in accordance with the various community standards. This has action has been undertaken in order to meet the objectives of the NSW Government in regard to making residential development more affordable. The NSW Government’s policy position is that Greenfield sites should be limited to $30,000 per dwelling/residential allotment.

4.2.6 Apportionment The total cost of community facilities (land & works) attributable to development in the WTC is apportioned between residential development and non-residential development. The cost is apportioned between residential and non-residential development on a ratio of 8:2. The 80% apportioned to residential development will be apportion on the basis of projected population, with the 20% apportioned to non-residential development being apportioned on gross floor area. Table 21 illustrates the apportionment of the costs between residential and non-residential development. The levying of community facilities contributions on non-residential uses is in recognition that there will be significant benefits derived from the provision of such facilities by business. These benefits are associated with the future use of community facilities by employees and commercial patrons that reside elsewhere. This applies in particular to the knowledge centre that will be accessible to employees and patrons. Table 21 Apportionment between Residential and Non-Residential Uses

4.2.7 Calculation of the Contribution Rate Residential Development (NDA) Residential development within R1 Residential zone (precincts 1, 2, 3, 4 & 7b) will be levied on a NDU basis, while residential development in the B2 & B4 zones (precincts 5, 6a, 6b & 7a) will be levied on a DU basis. The determination of the Precinct NDA rate for community facilities (land & works) and the monetary contribution payable for a development is as follows

CostPrec ($) = Costtotal ($) x Popprec Poptotal Contribnda ($) = Costprec ($) NDAprec Contribtotal ($) = Contribnda ($) x Areadev

Where: Costprec is the total cost of community facilities (land & works) attributable to the projected residential population for the selected precinct Costtotal is the total cost of community facilities (land & works) attributable to residential development in the WTC Popprec is the total projected residential population for the selected precinct Poptotal is the total projected residential population for the WTC Contribnda is the total contribution payable in the selected precinct for community facilities for every hectare of net developable area proposed to be developed NDApre is the Net Developable Area within the selected precinct Contribtotal is the total contribution payable in respect to a development proposal Areadev is the area proposed to be development in hectares Table 22 applies the formulas above to calculate the contribution rates for community facilities land and works on a per hectare of NDA for each precinct.

Residential Development (DU) Residential development in the B2 & B4 zones (precincts 5,6a, 6b & 7a) will be levied on a DU basis. This approach has been taken in recognition that the mixed commercial /residential nature of this zone, which makes the use of the NDA methodology potential inequitable. The determination of the DU rate for community facilities land and works and the monetary contribution payable for a development is as follows:

Contribper ($) = Costprec ($) Popprec Contribdu ($) = Contribper ($) x Occdu Contribtotal ($) = Contribdu ($) x DUprop

Where: Contribper is the total contribution payable for community facilities (land & works) per person Costprec is the total cost of community facilities (land & works) attributable to the projected residential population for precincts 5, 6a, 6b & 7a Popprec is the total projected residential population for precincts 5, 6a, 6b & 7a Contribdu is the total contribution payable for community facilities (land & works) for a development unit Occdu is the occupancy rate per DU i.e. 2.92 persons per dwelling Contribtotal is the total contribution payable in respect to a development proposal DUprop is the number of DU’s proposed Table 23 provides the contribution per person, which is the first step in determining the DU rate.

The determination of the GFA rate for community facilities land and works for non-residential developments and the monetary contribution payable for a development is as follows:

Contribgfa ($) = Costnon-res ($) GFAtotal Contribtotal ($) = Contribgfa x Devgfa

Where: Contribgfa is the total contribution payable for community facilities (land & works) per GFA Costnon-res is the total cost of community facilities (land & works) attributable to the projected non-residential uses GFAtotal is the total projected GFA for non-residential use in the WTC i.e. 62,000 m2 Contribtotal is the total contribution payable in respect to a development proposal Devgfa is the GFA proposed by a development Table 25 provides the contribution rates that apply to non-residential development

4.3 Roadworks and Traffic Management 4.3.1 Strategy Details The additional traffic generated from the development of an urban release area, without responding investment in roads and intersection upgrades, reduces the safe and efficient operation of an existing road network. Development in the Warnervale / Wadalba District, including the WTC, will require a significant investment in the road network in terms of:

new intersections and upgrades to existing intersections;

new and upgraded road links that meet the needs of the release areas as a whole (i.e. only the extra pavement width attributable to higher order roads outside the WTC is funded via development contributions).

The approach to establishing road and intersection requirements for the Warnervale / Wadalba District and the WTC has been to:

identify existing road hierarchy and traffic flows;

predict future road hierarchy and traffic flows generated by all development including the proposed development in this plan area;

identify road and intersection improvements / upgradings necessary to cater for these predicted flows;

identify additional road and intersections required to cater for these predicted flows;

apportion costs of improvements based on assessed daily vehicle trips for different land use types and development precincts.

This plan seeks a contribution from all development within the WTC for the additional cost over and above the normal road costs for signalised intersections and major roundabouts within the WTC, half road construction for the road along the great northern railway line, full road construction for roads that cross open space land, and several roads and intersections external to the WTC where there is a direct nexus. Private development will be responsible for the dedication of land and full width construction of all other roads within the WTC, including full road construction adjacent to open space (with the exception of the roads crossing the Environmental Corridor).

4.3.2 Works Schedule Council has assessed the cost of upgrading intersections and providing new and widened roads to meet the demands from projected residential and non residential development across the Warnervale / Wadalba District. Developments in various precincts in the Warnervale / Wadalba District contribute to the demand for the works, namely:

Retail/commercial development*;

Bulky goods development*;

Catholic School and GP Super Clinic*;

Warnervale Town Centre Residential*;

Warnervale Town Centre Residential above Commercial*;

Warnervale East/Wadalba NW (7B & 8A);

Wadalba 8B;

Wadalba 8B1;

Wadalba 8C;

Warnervale 7A;

WEZ Precincts 11 & 13 South;

WEZ Precinct 14;

Warnervale University;

Bruce Crescent Residential;

Bruce Crescent Employment;

Grammar School;

North Wyong Industrial Area. * Development addressed by this contributions plan. Within the works program, there are road and intersection works that relate to the development within a precinct (local works), and roads that are demanded by anticipated development throughout the Warnervale / Wadalba District (district works). Local works costs are to be fully met by development in the respective precinct. District works costs are to be met by development across the entire Warnervale / Wadalba District, with the respective precincts’ share of costs being determined by the predicted daily vehicle trips attributable to the anticipated development. Demand attributable to regional traffic growth has been accounted for in calculation of apportioned costs. Regional traffic demands on the network are assumed by this plan to be met by the Road and Traffic Authority of NSW. Table 26 provides a summary of the roadworks and intersections costs covered by this plan.

4.3.3 Apportionment of Roads Costs based on Vehicle Trips The apportionment of the total cost of upgrading the road network to accommodate the projected growth in the WTC is based on the projected daily vehicle trips. Residential trips are based on projected dwelling numbers in each precinct. The WTC DCP provides floor space projections for business uses that comprise retail, commercial and bulky goods retailing in Precinct 6a. There are no projections for business uses outside Precinct 6a. This plan assumes that the upper limits for business floor space for Precinct 6a specified in the DCP will be reached. Given that there is a further 7.8 ha of land zoned either B2 or B4 outside of Precinct 6a, as well as other areas that may be developed for non-residential use, this plan assumes an additional non-residential 8,000 daily trips when the WTC is fully developed. Tables 29 and 30 provides the methodology for determining the projected daily vehicle trips for the projected residential and non-residential development respectfully. Table 31 provides a summary of the total daily vehicle trips generated by the projected residential and non-residential development within the WTC when it is fully developed. This table is used to apportion the total cost of road works to each proposed land use, in particular the cost of works that is attributable to residential development.

4.3.4 Calculation of the Contribution Rate Residential Development (NDA) Residential development within R1 Residential zone (precincts 1, 2, 3, 4 & 7b) will be levied on a NDA basis, while residential development in the B2 & B4 zones (precincts 5, 6a, 6b & 7a) will be levied on a DU basis. The road costs attributable to residential development is apportioned to each of precincts 1,2,3,4 & 7b on the basis of that precinct’s proportion of the total projected residential vehicle trips. The contribution rate per hectare is calculated by dividing the costs attributed to a precinct by the Net Developable Area of that precinct. The determination of the Precinct NDA rate for road works for residential development in precincts 1, 2, 3, 4 & 7b and the monetary contribution payable for such development is as follows:

Costprec ($) = Costtotal ($) x Veh Tripsprec Veh Tripstotal Contribnda ($) = Costprec ($) NDAprec Contribtotal ($) = Contribnda ($) x Areadev

Where: Costprec is the total cost of road works (land & works) attributable to the projected residential development within the selected precinct Costtotal is the total cost of road works (land & works) attributable to residential development in the WTC i.e. $9,167.545 Veh Tripsprec is the total projected residential vehicle trips for the selected Precinct Veh Tripstotal is the total projected residential vehicle trips for WTC Contribnda is the total roads contribution payable within the selected precinct for every hectare of net developable area that is developed NDApre Net developable area within the selected Precinct Contribtotal is the total contribution payable in respect to a development proposal Areadev is the area proposed to be development in hectares Table 32 provides the cost per net developable area for each precinct using the formulas above.

Residential Development (DU) Residential development within the B2 & B4 zones (precincts 5, 6a, 6b & 7a) will be levied on a DU basis. This approach has been taken in recognition that the mixed commercial /residential use of this zone, which makes the use of the NDA methodology potential inequitable. The determination of the DU rate for road works for residential development within precincts 5, 6a, 6b & 7a and the monetary contribution payable for such development is as follows:

Costtrip ($) = Costtotal ($) Tripstotal Contribdu ($) = Costtrip ($) x Tripsdu Contribtotal ($) = Contribdu ($) x Tripsno

Where: Costtrip The cost per daily vehicle trip with administration charge Costtotal is the total cost of road works attributed to the WTC Tripstotal Is the total projected daily vehicle trips Contribdu is the total contribution payable in respect of on DU Tripsdu is the number of daily vehicle trips for a DU, i.e. 7 trips Contribtotalt is the total contribution payable for residential development in precincts 5, 6a, 6b & 7a Tripsno is the total number of projected daily vehicle trips for non-residential development The cost per trip is calculated as per Table 33, which the first step in determining the DU rate.

For the purpose of this plan non-residential development will apply to all development except residential development that involves permanent occupation such as dwelling, townhouses, permanently occupied units, nursing home etc. The determination of the contribution for daily vehicle trips for road works for non-residential development and the monetary contribution payable for such development is as follows:

Costtrip ($) = Costtotal ($) Tripstotal Contribtotal ($) = Costtrip ($) x Tripsno

Where: Costtrip is the cost per daily vehicle trip with administration charge Costtotal is the total cost of road works attributed to the WTC Tripstotal is the total projected daily vehicle trips Contribtotalt is the total contribution payable for residential development in precincts 5, 6a, 6b & 7a Tripsno is the total number of projected daily vehicle trips for non-residential development The method for determining the number of non-residential daily trips shall be by reference to the current Roads and Traffic Authority “Guide to Traffic Generating Developments”. Where a development type is not listed, the daily trip generation shall be determined by Council having regards to the standards applicable to like uses and/or other substantive research. Table 35 provides a compilation of land use trip generation rates from the RTA guidelines.

4.4 Stormwater Management 4.4.1 Background The Porters Creek Wetland is the largest remaining freshwater wetland on the Central Coast and one of the last of its kind in NSW. Porters Creek Wetland contains large areas of extensive Endangered Ecological Communities (EECs) and significant areas of habitat for a number of threatened species which are protected under the Threatened Species Conservation Act, 1995 (TSC Act) and Commonwealth Environment Protection and Biodiversity Act, 1999. Porters Creek Wetland was also recognised as a wetland of State significance when it was gazetted as a State Environmental Planning Policy No 14 - Coastal Wetland (SEPP 14 – Coastal Wetlands) in 1999. Council has a responsibility under the TSC Act and SEPP 14 – Coastal Wetlands to protect this wetland and to properly manage the effects of planned developments within its catchment. WTC is situated in the upper catchment of Porters Creek and therefore development and associated stormwater runoff from WTC will have an impact on Porters Creek wetland unless it is managed appropriately. Porters Creek Wetland is exhibiting signs of stress from altered drainage and hydrology from previously approved development within the Porters Creek catchment. Impervious surfaces such as roads, roofs and car parks increase stormwater runoff which poses a significant threat to the long-term viability of the wetland. Increased runoff from additional development in the catchment, if left unchecked, will result in loss of significant areas of EECs and a consequential reduction in habitat values and natural water quality improvement capacity. Further information explaining the impacts of urban development on Porters Creek wetland are contained in AECOM 2010 (refer Appendix A). 4.4.2 Stormwater Management Strategy Details An Integrated Water Cycle Management (IWCM) Strategy was formulated in 2006 to mitigate impacts on the Porters Creek Wetland associated with development of the Wyong Employment Zone and WTC. The aim of the IWCM Strategy was to capture and treat urban runoff and to divert excess stormwater around the Porters Creek Wetland and into Wyong River. This is achieved primarily through the Regional Stormwater Harvesting Scheme. The justification for the Scheme is provided in the Risk Assessment undertaken by AECOM, 2010. Modelling shows that the IWCM Scheme would significantly contribute to maintaining the wetland in its pre-development condition. Construction of treatment and storage areas together with a piped diversion around the Porters Creek Wetland will also permit a valuable resource to be tapped whilst permitting further development in the Porters Creek catchment to occur in a sustainable manner. The aims of the original 2006 IWCM Scheme were amended by Council in 2009 to reflect a change in the operating parameters i.e. reduction in the required stormwater storage and pump rate. Certain elements of the scheme were also removed. Council adopted a revised scheme in February 2010 (Wyong Shire Council Report, 2010) as shown in Figure 8. The main elements of the revised IWCM scheme as explained in the Ecological Engineering Report 2006 (refer Appendix A), are:

Attachment 1 Draft Warnervale Town Centre Contributions Plan

- 124 -

Water quality requirements mainly provided by artificial wetlands (in areas outside of WTC), but also by allotment and streetscape works. These are designed to reduce the sediment and nutrient load from runoff prior to it entering the Porters Creek Wetland or before being diverted to the regional stormwater harvesting scheme. These elements are to be provided by Developers at no expense to Council. Water diversion works consisting of storages, pump stations and pipelines designed to divert stormwater around Porters Creek Wetland to Wyong River. The discharge point into Wyong River is at the Wyong River Weir, which provides the option of discharging stormwater either upstream of the weir for use in directly supplementing the town water supply, onto the weir for use in environmental flow substitution thereby indirectly supplementing the town water supply, or downstream of the weir without contacting the town water supply. Table 36 outlines the main elements of the revised IWCM scheme. Figures 8 and 9 show the location of the various elements of drainage and stormwater management. Table 36 Main Elements of the IWCM Scheme

Water Cycle Management Element Precinct Scale Elements (to be

delivered by developers)

Regional Scale Elements (to be

delivered by Council and funded

by s94)

Demand Management (ie. AAA+ fixtures, dual flush toilets, waterless urinals, water efficient industrial practices)

Rainwater Tanks (supply non-potable demand (toilets, washdown, cooling etc. and/or irrigate an allotment landscape zone (equivalent to 20-25% of allotment)

At Source, Streetscape and Precinct Scale Stormwater Treatment

Constructed Wetlands (provide best practice treatment of stormwater before entering Stormwater Storage)

Stormwater Storages (active storage sized in combination with rapid drawdown pump rate of 36 kL/ha/day to preserve wetland hydrology)

Stormwater Transfer Pipeline and Pumps (diverts excess stormwater around Porters Creek Wetland to Wyong River)

4.4.3 Work Schedules Schedules showing an estimate of the cost and staging of the stormwater management facilities to be delivered under this strategy plan are shown in Appendix B of this plan. This is taken from The Porters Creek Catchment IWCM Technical Report (refer Wyong Shire Council, 2011 in Appendix A). The total estimated costs of the various components of the revised IWCM scheme are detailed in Tables 37 and 38.

4.4.4 Apportionment The total costs associated with managing stormwater within the WTC that comprise stormwater land costs and stormwater works costs will be apportioned over the net developable areas within the WTC. The proportion of the cost of the proposed trunk main costs and investigation works attributable to the WTC will also be apportioned over the net developable area within the WTC. The balance of the Trunk Main and investigation works is paid for by development in Precinct 7a and the Wyong Employment Zone. 4.4.5 Calculation of the Contribution Rate The determination of the NDA rate for stormwater land, stormwater works & trunk main and the monetary contribution payable for a development is as follows:

Contribnda ($) = Costtotal ($) NDAtotal Contribtotal ($) = Contribnda ($) x Areadev

Where: Contribnda is the contribution payable for stormwater land, stormwater works and trunk main for each hectare of net developable area proposed to be developed Costtotal is the total cost of stormwater land, stormwater works or trunk main attributable to the WTC NDAtotal is the total net developable area within the WTC Contribtotal is the total contribution payable in respect to a development proposal Areadev is the area proposed to be development in hectares Table 40 applies the formula above to provide the rate per hectare of NDA that applies to the development of land for any purpose.

4.5 Contributions Plan Studies A number of studies were carried out to establish the type and extent of works and land acquisitions to address the demands generated by development of the WTC. These studies relate to ecological investigations, water quality, drainage, integrated water cycle management, roads and land valuations. Table 41 shows the nature of the studies carried out. This plan aims to recoup Council’s costs for that portion of the cost of the studies that has been deemed to be attributable to Section 94 and the WTC. 4.5.1 Apportionment Table 41 shows the nature of the studies and the percentage share of the costs to be apportioned to development within the WTC. Table 41 Studies Relating to Studies / Investigations

Description Cost% Share to

WTCWTC Cost

Integrated Water Cycle Management Study $114,769 28% $32,632

Ecological Investigations 1999 $139,981 3% $4,662

Roads $28,285 100% $28,285

Aquatic Centre Feasibility Study 3% $0

2006 Land Valuations $62,058 50% $31,029

2010 Land Valuations (May 2010 value) $16,188 100% $16,188

Future Land Valuations (every 5 yrs for 15 yrs) $48,000 100% $48,000

Total $126,246 $160,796

The total cost of studies will be shared by all development within the WTC and apportioned on the basis of the total net developable area. 4.5.2 Calculation of Contribution Rates The determination of the contribution rate per ha of NDA for studies / investigations and the monetary contribution payable for a development is as follows:

Contribnda ($) = Costtotal ($) NDAtotal Contribtotal ($) = Contribnda ($) x Areadev

Where: Contribnda is the contribution payable for studies/investigations for each hectare of net developable area proposed to be developed

Costtotal is the total cost of studies/investigations attributable to the WTC NDAtotal is the total net developable area within the WTC Contribtotal is the total contribution payable in respect to a development proposal Areadev is the area proposed to be development in hectares Table 42 applies the formulas above to calculate the contribution rate for studies/investigations on a per hectare rate.

4.6 Contributions Plan Administration The costs to be recovered under this plan include:

the salary and operating costs over a 5 year period for the coordination of the development contribution process;

a salary component over a five year period for other Council officers who are directly involved in preparing plans and carrying out other development contribution functions;

on-costs, vehicles and award increases over a 5-year period. Table 43 provides details of the administration costs to be recovered under this plan. 4.6.1 Apportionment of Costs The effective administration and management of the development contribution process is crucial to achieving the objectives of the Section 94 process. To ensure that contribution funds are managed effectively and that services and facilities are provided within a reasonable time, Council has a number of staff that are directly involved in the contribution process. The administration and management costs to be recovered under this plan only partly cover the full costs of the process; however the Department of Planning recognises that these costs are a legitimate cost able to be recovered under Section 94. The administration costs will be included in all of Council’s contributions plans. An estimate of the likely cost of administering this plan has been prepared and is provided as follows in Table 43.

4.6.2 Calculation of the Contribution Rate Contributions will be collected from residential and non residential development in the WTC toward the cost of administering and managing development contributions. The most effective means of recouping the administration cost is by applying a percentage charge on the contributions. A 0.4% charge of the total contributions payable approximates the estimated administration costs shown in Table 44. The administration contribution is thus, 0.4% multiplied by all other contributions. The monetary contribution is calculated as follows:

Contribadmin ($) = Contribtotal ($) x Adminrate Where: Contadmin is the total administration charge Contribtotal is the total of all other contributions payable under this plan Adminrate is the rate of 0.4%
