Viewing and Working With the Maps
Most people will be interested in viewing maps
associated with their own land. Find the map
which covers the area of land you are interested
in. Determine what attribute you wish to view,
such as landuse zone. Find the Land Zoning
(LZN) mapset and find the map which corresponds
to your land, ie LZN Map 014A for Hat Head. For
any mapped attribute, such as minimum lot size
or height of buildings, it will always be on the
same map. If you wish to determine what the
minimum lot size is in that area, consult LSZ MAP
014A and find the land you are interested in.
Maps are in a PDF format. They can be viewed
electronically, and the zoom tool can be used to
for viewing properties of interest. Maps can also
be printed.
Where a more detailed map which includes other
attributes such as bushfire prone land is required,
Council’s planning staff will be able to assist.
The Land Use Zones
In most cases existing zones have been converted
to the proposed zones in accordance with the
table below. However there are instances where
this was not followed. The section 64 Submission
outlines some specific instances where this did
not occur. In addition it is important to consult the
Land Zoning Maps.

Using the Land Use Tables
The Draft Kempsey LEP 2012 written document
also has a land use table for each zone. The
land use table tells you what development
is permissible and prohibited within a zone.
Wherever possible, the land uses that are
currently permissible and prohibited in an existing
zone are treated the same way in the new zone.
Within each zone land uses are listed as:
• Permitted without consent (i.e you do not
need Council approval subject to meeting
specific controls)
• Permitted with consent (i.e you need
Council approval before commencing the
activity or building)
• Prohibited (i.e the land use is not allowed
in the zone)
The dictionary at the back of the written
instrument defines the land use terms.

KLEP 1987 Zone
The Draft Kempsey LEP 2012 contains what are
called ‘group terms’. A group term is a number of
land use terms that are broadly related by their
definition and grouped. For example ‘Residential
Accommodation’ is the group term and includes
the following sub-terms: group home, seniors
housing, attached dwelling, boarding house,
dual occupancy, dwelling house, hostel, multi
dwelling housing, residential flat building, rural
workers dwellings, secondary dwellings, semidetached dwelling and shop top housing. The
Landuse Matrix and the layout of the landuse
terms is a useful document that demonstrates
this concept. It lists landuses with the ‘group
terms’ at the head of the list, with the sub terms
listed below each. You can look up ‘Residential
Accommodation’ on the Matrix to see the above
example demonstrated.

relevance in the Draft Kempsey Local Environmental Plan 2012 for particular circumstances.

Fact Sheet No 2 Draft Kempsey LEP 2012
How to read the document
How Group Terms Work in the Land use
Table
• Permitted with consent (Council approval
required) or
A group term hierarchy is used which means that
some sub-terms do not need to be listed in the
land use tables despite the fact that they may be
prohibited or permissible in a zone. The purpose
of this is to avoid specifically listing individual
uses.
• Prohibited (the land use is not allowed in
the zone) or
In most cases not all land uses under a group
term are appropriate for the zone. For example
land uses that meet the zone objectives are
pulled out of the group term which may be listed
‘prohibited’ and listed in ‘permitted with consent’
and the group term is listed in ‘prohibited’. This
is to ensure all other land uses associated with
the group term are prohibited. This can also work
in reverse, where the group term is permitted
and certain land uses are pulled out and listed as
prohibited.
• Permitted under a State Environmental
Planning Policy (SEPP)
Information in the Matrix should be verified with
what is in the landuse table in the Draft Kempsey
LEP 2012. Any inconsistencies between the two,
the Draft Kempsey LEP 2012 landuse table will
prevail, as it is the legal document for public
exhibition.
The Matrix
The landuse Matrix is a companion document to
the Draft Kempsey LEP 2012. Developed by the
Department of Planning and issued to Council’s for
use in preparing their Standard LEP’s. It is an “at
a glance” reference of all defined landuses, all the
zones and their permissibility.
It notes which landuses were mandatory to
be prohibited, which were mandatory to be
permissible with or without consent, and which
landuses and permissibility have been applied by
Council choice.
In addition it also notes which landuses
permissibility are covered by the Infrastructure
SEPP.
While not officially part of the legal instrument,
it will remain on Council’s website once the Draft
Kempsey LEP 2012 has commenced, as an aid to
interpreting the LEP.
How to use the Matrix
To use the matrix take the following steps;
1. Identify your zone (each zone is listed on the
top row)
2. Identify the relevant land use (listed on the
left side)
3. Use the legend to identify whether the land
use is:
• Permitted without consent (do not need
Council approval subject to meeting certain
requirements) or
