Strategic assessment of the amendment

Why is the amendment required?
The Cranbourne Racecourse and the equestrian industry have long been identified as a
key cultural and economic driver in the City of Casey.
The amendment is required to facilitate the redevelopment and ongoing use of the
Cranbourne Racing Complex and surrounds for a racecourse, equine training centre,
horse stabling, recreation reserve and other community benefits. Under the current
zoning a number of uses such as a veterinary clinic which will support the ongoing
viability of the racing complex are prohibited.
The special use zone recognises and provides for the use of and development of land for
specific purposes. It is the zone that typically relates to racecourse facilities through
metropolitan Melbourne and Regional Victoria and will allow for the redevelopment of
existing facilities and non-racing related operations to support the year- round use of the
The application of the Special Use Zone will also allow for the protection of the significant
vegetation and ecological corridors that exist throughout the complex by incorporating the
objectives and development guidelines contained in the Cranbourne Racing Complex and
Surrounds Investment and Development Plan.
The amendment will also support the ongoing viability of the horse stabling and training
industries in Cranbourne by including the previously identified Cranbourne Intensive
Horse Stabling area as a specific precinct in the Cranbourne Racing Complex and
Surrounds Investment and Development Plan and Schedule 4 to the Special Use Zone.

How does the amendment implement the objectives of planning in Victoria?
The amendment implements the objectives of planning in Victoria by ensuring that the
zone applying to the land is in accordance with the objectives set out in paragraphs (a),
(b), (c), (d), (e) and (g) of Section 4 of the Planning and Environment Act 1987 and
thereby provides for the orderly, economic and sustainable use and development of the
land.

How does the amendment address the environmental effects and any
relevant social and economic effects?
The Cranbourne Racing Complex contains several ecological significant areas. The SUZ
and Development and Investment Plan include measures to ensure that development
protects this area. Additionally, the SUZ includes a requirement for a flora and fauna
assessment to be adopted by the Responsible Authority as part of an individual precinct
master plan as well as objectives to protect, maintain, enhance and retain areas of native
vegetation and ecological sensitivity.
The Cranbourne Racecourse and the equestrian industry have long been identified as a
key cultural and economic driver in the City of Casey.
The city’s long term plan, the Casey C21 Strategy includes the following objective for
Building on Casey’s Advantage:
“Objective 7: Melbourne’s Premier Horse Training Complex
Build on Cranbourne's training and racing complex and the cluster of professional and
recreational horse activities to create opportunities for business development and new
jobs for the local community.”
The inclusion of the intensive horse stabling precinct and the potential for additional
stabling and racing support industries in the Investment and Development Plan and
Special Use Zone will ensure that the Cranbourne Racing Complex and associated
industries will continue to create opportunities for business development and new jobs for
the local community.
The potential for increased non-racing related uses, the year around use of the
racecourse for community and entertainment events and the preservation of the
Cranbourne recreation reserve and existing soccer precinct will provide numerous social
benefits.

Does the amendment address relevant bushfire risk?
The land is not affected by the Bushfire Management Overlay under the Casey Planning
Scheme. It is located in a designated ‘Bushfire Prone Area’ under the Building Controls.
The amendment will not result in any increase to the risk to life, property, community
infrastructure or the natural environment from bushfire.
Any risk can be managed as part of any building permit application that may be made in
the future. Additionally, the view of the relevant fire authority will be sought during the
formal exhibition of the amendment.

Does the amendment comply with the requirements of any Minister’s
Direction applicable to the amendment?
The amendment is consistent with the Ministerial Direction on the Form and Content of
Planning Schemes under section 7(5) of the Act.
The amendment is affected by Ministerial Direction No. 9- Metropolitan Strategy, and
Ministerial Direction 11 – Strategic Assessment of Amendments. The purpose of these
two directions is to ensure that planning scheme amendments have a comprehensive

land-use planning by creating specific guidelines for the retention of significant native
vegetation.
 The amendment also complies with the relevant directions of the Ministerial Direction
on the Planning Scheme Amendment process.

Framework and any adopted State policy?
The amendment is consistent with the SPPF. Relevant policies of the SPPF include:
Clause 11:03 Open space
Clause 11.04-2 Activity Centre hierarchy
Clause 12.01-1 Protection of habitat
Clause 17.01-1 Business
Clause 17.03-1 Facilitating tourism
Clause 19.02-3 Cultural facilities
The amendment is consistent with these policies by:
 Protecting and maintaining a large regional park area, a significant conservation area,
wildlife corridors and greenhouse sinks and having open space which accommodates
people of all abilities, ages and cultures (Clause 11.03).
 Assisting the conservation of the habitats of threatened and endangered species and
communities as identified under the Flora and Fauna Guarantee Act 1988, including
communities under-represented in conservation reserves such as native grasslands,
grassy woodlands and wetlands, by creating specific areas for the threatened

 Encouraging tourism development to maximise the employment and long-term
economic, social and cultural benefits of developing the State as a competitive
domestic and international tourist destination by considering accommodation and
entertainment uses at the Cranbourne Racing Complex to support the ongoing cultural
and tourism role of the Cranbourne Racecourse (Clauses 17.03-1 and 19.02-3).

How does the amendment support or implement the Local Planning Policy
Framework and specifically the Municipal Strategic Statement?

Clause 21.11 Employment
Clause 21.12 Image
Clause 21.13 Accessibility

 Reducing escape expenditure to and dependency on external centres by developing
the Cranbourne Principal Activities Area by building on its competitive advantage in the

THE FARM

Context
19/01/2006
VC37
The Farm is located to the south of the municipality and consists of the areas around Clyde,
Cranbourne South, Devon Meadows, Five Ways, Junction Village and Pearcedale. The
terrain is generally flat and areas near Clyde are poorly drained. Much of the area in The
Farm falls within the Western Port catchment.
The areas generally to the north of Tooradin and around Clyde contain high quality,
versatile agricultural soils. The high quality soils are an important economic resource
because of their high productive capacity and their proximity to metropolitan markets. The
soils should be protected because inappropriate subdivision will cause already small land
holdings to be further fragmented, thereby undermining their long term viability.
The Farm is mainly used for agricultural purposes such as beef cattle and vegetable and
flower growing. Much of the produce is sold in metropolitan Melbourne. Other rural
activities include poultry farming, horse racing and agistment, animal boarding and dog
breeding. The agricultural output of these activities makes a significant contribution to the
local and metropolitan economy.
The Farm is also used for rural residential purposes, especially in and around the
settlements of Pearcedale, Clyde and Devon Meadows. The land to the west of Devon
Meadows contains extensive areas of native vegetation. There are several quarry sites also
in this area.
South Gippsland Highway is the main traffic thoroughfare in this Region. It is notably
used by tourists on their way to Phillip Island. However, Western Port Highway is also an
important north-south connector and it provides the municipality’s primary link to the deep
water port at Hastings and the Mornington Peninsula.
The Farm is being threatened by incremental subdivision, rural residential development and
non-horticultural activities.

Objectives, strategies and implementation
07/05/2009
Proposed C166
Objectives
 To consolidate urban development within the boundaries of existing rural settlements
and planned commercial nodes.
 To retain quality land for intensive agriculture and ensure the viability and prosperity of
agricultural activities is not compromised.
 To encourage the innovative use of farming land so that the use does not degrade the
land’s landscape qualities, reduce its long term availability for agricultural use or lower
water quality in Western Port and promote and facilitate the development of farming
systems which are environmentally sustainable, as well as being technically and
economically robust.
 To maintain a non-urban buffer to Western Port and a continuation of the South East
Non-Urban “Wedge”.
 To ensure the impact of all activities on the Western Port catchment are minimised
and/or contribute to an improvement to the environment and meet the objectives of
EPA’s various State Environment Protection Policies (SEPP’s), government approved
catchment management strategies and local water quality action plans.
MUNICIPAL STRATEGIC STATEMENT - CLAUSE 21.07
PAGE 1 OF 3
 To ensure the protection and enhancement of remnant native vegetation, the Royal
Botanic Gardens, Cranbourne, rural landscapes (particularly along and adjacent to main
roads) and creation of wildlife corridors.
Strategies
 Retain or reinforce existing subdivision controls for farming zones. Discourage
repeated excisions that have the potential to reduce the productive capacity of rural
properties.
 Allow rural residential subdivision where the criteria specified in Minister’s Direction
No. 6 have been satisfied, a holistic approach to land use management is taken and
where existing agricultural activities will not be compromised.
 Safeguard the natural resource through encouraging and assisting sustainable farm
practices.
 Promote and encourage the continued increase in the technical and economic efficiency
of intensive irrigated and dry land farming systems.
 Promote and facilitate the opportunity for value adding within the regional economy.
 Apply land capability as the basis for rural zones.
 Examine strategies for the after use of exhausted quarries.
 For all rural settlements, consolidate urban development, and provide defensible urban
boundaries and a clear demarcation between urban and non-urban areas.
 Discourage the establishment of unwanted urban land uses.
 Encourage intensive farming uses at established locations including dog breeding and
keeping at Devon Meadows and Pearcedale and horse stabling adjacent to the
 Discourage commercial development at inappropriate locations along Western Port
Highway, South Gippsland Highway and other main roads.
 Encourage tourist development at appropriate locations along the South Gippsland
Highway.
 Retain or reinforce native vegetation removal controls, especially for areas with
significant tracts of remnant vegetation.
 Encourage revegetation of open spaces, parks and watercourses, to create wildlife
corridors.
 Ensure that Casey’s rural land is not eroded or prejudiced by inappropriate
development, particularly developments that do not need to be located in a rural area.
Implementation
These strategies will be implemented by:
Use of policy
 Using Rural Subdivision Policy to preserve valuable agricultural land (Clause 22.06).
 Using Intensive Agricultural Uses Policy to encourage and support intensive farming
activities, including dog breeding, boarding and training in Pearcedale and Devon
Meadows (Intensive Agricultural Uses Policy, Clause 22.10).
PAGE 2 OF 3
 Using Poultry and Broiler Farming Policy to guide the use and development of poultry
and broiler farms (Clause 22.12).
 Using Extractive Industry Policy to have regard to the proximity of proposed
development to existing extractive industries to protect the continued operation of these
industries and any future use of these sites for waste disposal (Clause 22.13).
 Using Non-Agricultural Uses In Green Wedge Areas Policy to protect Casey’s ‘green
wedge’ land from ad hoc and inappropriate development (Clause 22.21).
Application of zones and overlays
 Applying the Rural Zone to The Farm areas of Casey to ensure the effective use of
available land resources.
 Applying the Rural Living Zone to those parts of The Farm already developed for those
purposes.
 Applying the Environmental Rural Zone to protect rural areas of environmental
significance and ensure appropriate land use management practices are employed.
 Maintaining minimum lot sizes in the Schedule to the Rural, Environmental Rural and
Rural Living Zones to maintain the viability of rural industry.
Further strategic work
 Developing a Strategy for the area of The Farm north and east of South Gippsland
Highway.
 Developing strategies for ensuring the development and management of the dog
breeding, boarding and working areas and the equine industry.
 Identifying land within the Kooweerup Flood Mitigation District and Devon
Meadows/Cannons Creek Drainage Strategy Area subject to inundation/flooding as the
basis for the introduction of a Land Subject to Inundation Overlay.
Other actions
 Implementing Council’s Roadside Management Plan.
 Reviewing Council’s planting list for the area in consultation with the Royal Botanic
Gardens, Cranbourne and preparing a landscaping guide.
 Preparing educational material for landholders regarding environmental and cultural
values and management issues for the area.
