Consultation has concluded

Council has prepared the Draft Local Strategic Planning Statement – ‘Towards 2040’ which is now open for community comment until 29 May 2020.

The Draft Local Strategic Planning Statement (LSPS) – ‘Towards 2040’ sets out:

  • the 20 year vision for land-use in the local area;
  • the special characteristics which contribute to local identity;
  • shared community values to be maintained and enhanced; and
  • how growth and change will be managed into the future.

The NSW Government requires all councils to prepare and make Local Strategic Planning Statements. LSPS’s are also required to meet various statutory requirements of the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act 1979.

The Draft LSPS’s visions, objectives and planning priorities provide the rationale for how land-use decisions will be made to achieve the community’s broader goals.

The Draft LSPS works in concert with the Community Strategic Plan 2018-2028 to set out the community’s long-term vision and aspirations for all Council’s planning activities. Its vision, planning priorities and associated actions have drawn heavily from the extensive and various community consultations undertaken for the Community Strategic Plan 2018-2028.

You can find the LSPS in the document library on the right. There is a high resolution version and a low resolution version for those with slower internet connections, but be aware that the maps and images will be difficult to see clearly in the low resolution version.

Submissions will be accepted until close-of-business 29 May 2020 and can be made in the following ways:
