Hilltops Council has placed the Draft Hilltops Local Environmental Plan on public exhibition.
Council received the initial review and Gateway Determination of the LEP and supporting material from the State Government in January 2021. This was then endorsed by Hilltops Council to place on public exhibition at the February 2021 Ordinary Council Meeting.
The aims of the Draft Hilltop LEP are to:
- provide consistent planning controls across the whole of the Hilltops Local Government Area.
- progress the short term strategic objectives established within Hilltops 2040, the official Local Strategic Planning Statement for Hilltops; and
- ensure the document is consistent with the latest State Government planning legislation and policy.
Council invites you to provide your feedback on the Draft Hilltops LEP 2021 during the public exhibition period from Monday 15 March to Monday 26 April 2021.
You can view the Draft Hilltops LEP via Council's dedicated LEP Consultation website, lep.hilltops.nsw.gov.au. The Consultation Website includes all of the draft Hilltops LEP documents and interactive Online Mapping to view the current and proposed planning controls.
During the public exhibition period Council Officers are available for appointments to discuss the draft LEP and what it means for your property, business or industry. Additionally, various consultation and engagement activities will be undertaken with the community, stakeholders and government agencies will take place during the public exhibition period.
