Key:
* The Rural Domain allows smaller lot sizes in specific circumstances.
# Corner allotment.
^ Rear allotment and does not include area of access strip or easement.
- The minimum frontage requirement is 15 metres where the lot is created for the use of a detached
dwelling or an attached dwelling (containing two units only).
- In a single subdivision proposal in the Park Living Domain, the average lot size must not be less than
8,000m2 (excluding areas of public open space dedication).
Note 1: The relevant domain controls may place further restrictions on minimum lot size.
For example, in the Detached Dwelling Domain, the large minimum lot size overlay control may require a larger lot size than that shown in this table.
Note 2: The relevant domain controls may place restrictions on the total yield or density that can be achieved. This would limit the number of lots that can be created at the minimum size.
Note 3: The minimum lot size shown here refers to land only, whether it is fee simple land or community title land. It does not apply to the subdivision of apartment buildings into residential units, the subdivision of commercial buildings into separate tenancies or to the creation of separate building unit titles within a community title development. These last mentioned developments are subject to the density and use controls that apply in the relevant domains or LAPs.
