Planning Proposals
Proposing to rezone land or change development standards (i.e. building height, floor-space ratio, changing heritage status) is a formal planning process. This process is called a Planning Proposal and is the first step in preparing or amending a Local Environmental Plan. A planning proposal is a document that explains the intended effect of a proposed LEP and sets out the justification for making or amending a plan.
For more information, please read Strathfield Council’s Guidelines for Preparing Planning Proposal.
