A Neighbourhood Context Plan Survey is an essential requirement for Town Planning Applications for Unit Developments. This survey provides a broader view of the development site, capturing details of surrounding properties and streetscapes to meet council regulations. It helps assess the impact of the proposed development on the local area, ensuring that the new construction aligns with the existing neighbourhood character and complies with zoning laws, height restrictions, and other planning controls, making it a vital part of the approval process.
This survey is similar to a Feature and Level Survey but extends beyond the development site, typically covering three properties on either side and the opposite side of the street. The purpose is to provide planners and architects with a clear understanding of the surrounding built environment and natural features.
Local councils require Context Plan to assess how a proposed development will integrate with its surroundings. It helps in evaluating elements such as:
Building heights (Ridge and Gutter)
Existing structures and site features (Fences and services)
Street details and vegetation
Overlooking and overshadowing impacts
