Local Planning Policies Review

The feedback period for stage four of the Local Planning Policies (LPPs) Review has now closed. The revised LPPs will be presented to Council for adoption in May 2024.

The City is reviewing its Local Planning Policies (LPPs) to align with State Planning Reforms and support implementation of draft Local Planning Scheme No. 7. The review will ensure the City has an up-to-date planning framework to support good planning outcomes for our community into the future.

The review will take place in several stages according to the type of changes proposed to the LPPs, and the associated advertising and consultation requirements which are explained in an FAQ.
