The original Eastlakes Shopping Centre redevelopment was approved by the Independent Planning Commission, on behalf of the Minister for Planning, in September 2013.
In June 2020, the department approved a modification application to make design refinements to the north site, and for the redesign of the southern site.
The approved changes to the south side include:
- reducing the number of buildings above the podium from 6 to 5 towers
- increasing building heights from 2 to 8 storeys above the 1 level podium and to 4 to 10 storeys above 2 levels podium
- increasing the number of apartments by 65 (to 490)
- increasing the total gross floor area by 9,650m2 (to 60,469m2), including increasing non-residential GFA by 4,692m2 (to 19,283m2).
The modification request is accompanied by a public benefit offer of $4.65 million, which includes:
- up to $100,000 for public domain upgrades around the site
- up to $1.55 million for community facilities and public spaces upgrades
- an affordable housing contribution estimated to be equivalent to $3 million, or 10% of the total number of additional apartments proposed in the modification.
The project was determined under the Planning System Acceleration Program, a package of measures to accelerate the assessment of projects that will inject investment in to the NSW economy.
