REVIEW OF LOCAL PLANNING POLICY No. 7.5.3 – EDUCATION AND CARE SERVICES
The City is seeking comment on amendments to Local Planning Policy No. 7.5.3 – Education and Care Services. The key modifications proposed through the Policy are to:
- Retitle the policy so it is clear what the policy is intended for.
- Update the objectives to be more prescriptive and provide better guidance on the desired outcomes.
- Update the definitions to articulate the difference between a 'Centre Based Child Care Service' and a 'Family Day Care Service'.
- Remove any provisions that relate to other legislation, particularly the Education and Care Services National Regulations.
- Clear guidance on provisions relating to building design, hours of operation, suitable locations, external playing spaces, car parking and access, and submission requirements.
