Draft Development Control Plan Under Review Council has prepared a new draft comprehensive Development Control Plan (DCP) for the Shire, which was publicly exhibited from 3 August until 15 September 2026. The draft DCP consolidates the Shire's existing 17 Development Control Plans into a single contemporary document that is easier to navigate, uses consistent language, and is better aligned with current planning legislation, Council strategies and planning practice. While the public exhibition period has now concluded and submissions have closed, project information remains available for viewing. This includes the draft DCP, background information, fact sheets, frequently asked questions and other supporting materials designed to help the community understand the proposed changes. Council is currently reviewing submissions received during the exhibition period in collaboration with the DCP Working Group. This feedback will inform revisions to the draft DCP before it is reported to Council for consideration and adoption at a future date. Thank you to everyone who took the time to review the draft DCP and provide feedback. Community input plays an important role in shaping the final document and helping to guide future growth and development across the Shire.
