Planning Proposal for 360 Pacific Highway, Crows Nest

Planning Proposal applying to 360 Pacific Highway, Crows Nest (PP-2021- 7169) is on public exhibition from Monday, 8 May 2023 to Tuesday, 6 June 2023.

About the Planning Proposal

 The subject site located within the St Leonards and Crows Nest 2036 Planned Precinct at 360 Pacific Highway, Crows Nest. It is currently zoned B4 Mixed Use under the North Sydney Local Environmental Plan (LEP) 2013.

 Council resolved to refuse the Planning Proposal at its meeting on 27 June 2022

The applicant subsequently lodged a rezoning review with the State Government which determined to allow the Planning Proposal to proceed to Gateway Determination contrary to Council’s endorsed position.

The Planning Proposal seeks to facilitate the redevelopment of the site for a 18-storey mixed-use development consisting of approximately 42 residential apartments, 3 storey commercial podium, 4 levels of basement carparking and a non-residential Gross Floor Area (GFA) of 2,812m².

To achieve the intended outcome, the Planning proposal seeks to make following amendments to the North Sydney LEP 2013:

 • increase the maximum building height control from 10m to RL163.8.

• introduce a maximum floor space ratio (FSR) control of 5.5:1.

• increase the minimum non-residential FSR control from 0.5:1 to 2:1.

As the planning proposal is the result of a rezoning review, Council is not managing the plan making process. Submissions must be made to the Department of Planning and Environment (DPE) through the NSW Planning Portal (by 5pm on Tuesday 6 June 2023).
