The Local Government Infrastructure Plan (LGIP) is a critical planning document that helps guide the delivery of trunk infrastructure such as roads, pathways, water, sewerage and parks to support population growth and development in our community. The LGIP ensures that infrastructure is planned, funded, and delivered in a coordinated and sustainable way, aligning with our region’s future needs.

Community feedback is essential to shaping a well-planned and sustainable future. This consultation provides an opportunity for residents, businesses, and stakeholders to review the draft LGIP and share their thoughts on how infrastructure planning aligns with community expectations and priorities.

Council previously undertook public consultation on a draft LGIP from 17 March to 30 April 2025. That LGIP was drafted to align with the current planning scheme (version11) zoning and assumptions.

In order to progress with public consultation on the Package 1 planning scheme amendments, it was necessary to withdraw the earlier LGIP amendment package and resubmit a new draft LGIP which aligned with the zoning and assumptions contained in the Package 1 planning scheme amendments. This was a procedural requirement to minimise confusion arising from overlapping LGIP amendment processes and minimise delays.

If you made a submission on the earlier draft LGIP, your submission has been retained and will be considered together with the new consolidated LGIP. You do not need to resubmit unless you wish to update or expand on your original submission.
