Contribution Plan No. 04 - Mt Druitt Development Area
Purpose of Plan
This Contributions Plan outlines Council's policy regarding the application of Section 94 (S.94) of the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act, 1979 in relation to the provision of infrastructure (Trunk Drainage and Local Roads) within the Mount Druitt Development Area. This land was originally known as the "I.D.O. No. 81 Area".
This Plan has been prepared in accordance with the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act, 1979 and the Environmental Planning and Assessment Regulation, 1980.
The initial Contributions Plan for the Mount Druitt Development Area was approved by Council on 22 September 1993 and came into force on 30 September 1993.
This plan was reviewed in December 1999 with a further review in November 2004. This current document contains the most up to date data available and is exhibited for public comment prior to being considered for adoption by Council.
The S.94 contributions contained in this Plan have been determined on the basis of "Contribution Catchments". This is the area over which a contribution for a particular item is levied. Within each catchment there is an identifiable "list" of works, which are scheduled for provision.
Council applies contribution formula to each catchment for the purpose of calculating the contribution rate applicable to that catchment. The formula take into account the cost of works to be undertaken, the cost to Council of acquiring land on which to undertake these works and the size of the catchment area. The total cost of providing these works is distributed over the total catchment on an equitable basis.
