Contribute to the future of development in our suburbs, towns and regions

As the state’s population grows, the new Planning and Design Code (the Code) has the potential to contribute to the development of cooler, greener neighbourhoods that are better for everyone. And we need your input!

Our free workshops are designed to help demonstrate development scenarios that meet the draft planning policies in terms of greening and stormwater management, and how this compares to current practices.

We will:

provide practical expert assistance in how to navigate and prepare effective responses to influence the draft Code
gather your feedback at the workshop and prepare a summary for government.

Join us to discuss proposed policy on:

site coverage/reduced hard paved surfaces
minimum landscaped areas
minimum tree planting for shade and amenity
enhanced biodiversity
rainwater tanks and other stormwater runoff management solutions.
