by 0.5:1; and
o include office premises, business premises or retail premises in Area 4
(Chinatown and Haymarket).
o Amend the objectives of the RE1 Public Recreation zone which will apply to
the entire Local Government Area (LGA) to protect sun access to public land;
o Add a new design excellence ‘plus’ process which would allow for up to 50%
additional floor space to be awarded for development with a site area greater
than 2000m2, where it demonstrates design excellence in an identified tower
cluster area;
o Amend the height of building objectives to exclude sharing of views in Central
