Tamworth Regional Development Control Plan 2009
Part A – Administration 2
A2 PURPOSE OF THE PLAN
The purpose of this Plan is to provide a consolidated document of the DCPs of the former local
government areas of Barraba, Manilla, Nundle, Parry and Tamworth, and provide the necessary
detail and guidelines to achieve positive planning outcomes.
The Plan complements the statutory provisions contained in the Tamworth Region Local
Environmental Plan 2009 which applies to land within Tamworth Regional LGA.
A3 AIMS OF THE PLAN
The principal aim of this Plan is to complement the statutory provisions contained within the
Tamworth Regional Local Environmental Plan. This will be achieved by:
Providing clear and concise development standards for various forms of development;
Inclusion of location‐specific development guidelines where necessary to promote orderly
and effective development outcomes;
Identifying the circumstances and procedure for community consultation in the
development application process; and
Application of the Plan in a consistent manner, reinforcing certainty of development
outcomes for both the developer and the community.
A4 STATUTORY REQUIREMENTS
The DCP is titled “Tamworth Regional Development Control Plan 2009”.
The DCP is a development control plan prepared under Section 74C of the EP&A Act and associated
Regulations.
Section 74C(5) in the EP&A Act provides that, in the event of any inconsistency between this DCP
and the provisions in an environmental planning instrument (such as a State Environmental Planning
Policy, Regional Environmental Plan or Local Environmental Plan) the environmental planning
instrument shall prevail.
Section 79C(1)(a)(iii) of the EP&A Act requires Council (or any other consent authority) to consider
this DCP when determining development applications that are covered by this DCP.
A5 LAND TO WHICH THE PLAN APPLIES

A6 REPEALED AND CONSOLIDATED PLANS
This Plan repeals all development control plans within the former local government areas of Barraba,
Manilla, Nundle, Parry and Tamworth in so far as that land is now within the Tamworth Regional
Local Government Area.
The Plans which will not be consolidated into this plan are:
• Parry DCP No.8 – Rural Adjustment Allotments
The gazettal of the State Environmental Planning Policy (Rural Lands) 2008 removed the opportunity
for rural adjustment allotments.
• Parry DCP No.11 – Heritage Estate
This Estate is now developed.
• Manilla DCP No.1 – Rural Residential Development
The changes to the LEP which no longer operate in this manner, ie, concessions to subdivision,
negate the need for this development control plan.
• Tamworth Regional DCP No.1 – Telecommunications and Radio Communications
The Department of Planning is proposing to amend State Environmental Planning Policy
(Infrastructure) 2007 to include telecommunications facilities. A draft Telecommunications Facilities
Code including Broadband (see attached) has been prepared, which lists the telecommunication
facilities that are proposed to be exempt or complying development and therefore do not require a
development application. The code also provides best practice principles for the site selection,
design, construction and operation of telecommunication facilities in order to minimise visual, safety
and health impacts.
• Tamworth Regional DCP (South Kingswood) 2006
The Lot Size Map nominates an minimum area for subdivision which leaves only two parcels of land
that have adequate area to seek consent for subdivision.
The Plans which are condensed into this Plan are identified in the following table.
