Precinct 5 - Development Framework

Development in Precinct 5 will provide for high quality access to the boulevard, with landscaped gardens, canopy trees and boulevard planting.

Building heights will increase closer to the FMAC and on the eastern side of the Nepean Highway.

Development on the highway’s west side will be lower scale and set back from Kananook Creek to respond to its sensitive interface.

On the below map you will see Sub-Precinct boundaries and other built form requirements for Precinct 5. On the right hand side of the map you can find a summary of the Development Requirements.

You can also read more about the Precincts and Building heights in the Draft FMAC Structure Plan
