The amendment Instruction Sheet is the front page of an amendment and sets out the instructions for amending the planning scheme. The Instruction Sheet and the attached maps and documents to which it refers, constitute the amendment and therefore must clearly state the instructions for executing the amendment. It is essential that these are drafted carefully and accurately.

The Instruction Sheet must list, in the following order :

  1. Planning scheme maps that are to be amended, inserted or deleted. These should be sorted by zoning maps followed by overlay maps.
  2. Planning scheme clauses and schedules that are to be amended, inserted or deleted. These should be listed in ascending numerical order.
