A planning proposal is a document and supporting information that explains the intended effect and justification of a proposed amendment to a Local Environmental Plan.
Local Environmental Plans guide planning decisions for local government areas through zoning and development controls.
A landowner, developer or an individual seeking to amend the zoning or development standards that apply to land they own, or have an interest in, may initiate a planning proposal.
The Department of Planning, Housing and Infrastructure has issued a Gateway Determination, and the proposal is now open for community consultation. Any submissions will be reviewed by staff, and may inform amendments to the planning proposal prior to being considered by Council.
