The Association has a set of

Planning Principles

  • Principle 1

    Battery Point is a nationally significant historic precinct whose heritage should be protected from inappropriate uses and development

  • Principle 2

    The ongoing use of the Inner Residential zoned area of the suburb should prioritise residential amenity and be principally for residential purposes

  • Principle 3

    Future residential development should be compatible with the existing urban and historic development pattern

  • Principle 4

    Non-residential uses should not be permitted and new developments should be limited to existing commercial or mixed-use zones

  • Principle 5

    Proposed uses and development should not intensify existing traffic and parking congestion within Battery Point
