Bayside Council is inviting the community to provide feedback on the Draft Bayside Local Infrastructure Contribution Plan and Policy, which will help deliver the infrastructure needed to support the Bayside's growing population.
As Bayside continues to grow, investment in local infrastructure is essential to ensure residents, workers and visitors have access to the facilities and services they need.
Council collects developer contributions when new developments are approved. These contributions help fund infrastructure projects that support growth and benefit the wider community.
Bayside currently operates under seven separate development contribution plans. Six of these plans were inherited from former council areas and are now being consolidated and replaced by a single contribution plan and supporting policy.
The Draft Bayside Local Infrastructure Contribution Plan and Policy will create a clear, transparent and consistent approach to how development contributions are collected and invested across the local government area.
More than $1.2 billion in infrastructure projects have been identified through the draft Plan, helping deliver improvements that will benefit current and future residents, workers and visitors.
Community feedback will play an important role in finalising the Draft Plan and Policy and ensuring future development contributions are directed towards the infrastructure that matters most to the Bayside community.
