Consultation period extended for draft Hampton Park Hill Development Plan

Due to significant interest from the community, Council has extended the due date for submissions on the draft Hampton Park Hill Development Plan until 6.00 pm on Sunday 14 August 2022, giving residents more time (six weeks in total) to have their say on this important project.

City of Casey Manager Planning and Building, Duncan Turner said more than 290 written submissions on the draft plan have already been received, and encourage residents who are keen to share their views on any aspects of this plan to complete the survey.

Consultation opportunities to date have included:

  • two virtual community information sessions
  • a separate virtual briefing with the Lynbrook Residents Association and Landfill Community Reference Group in July
  • Public notices, alerting the community to the opportunity to provide their input on the draft development plan, published in the local media, along with a media release which was issued on 6 July
  • letters were sent directly to about 2,600 properties in and adjoining the development plan area, making them aware of the draft Hampton Hill Development Plan, how they could participate in community engagement opportunities, and where they could find more detailed information about the project. This direct communication also included a detailed frequently asked questions information pack of some five pages.

Council has also again reached out to the Lynbrook Residents Association to arrange another meeting with the Committee.
