Public Exhibition open for Hurstville Development Control Plan Harmonisation

Georges River Council

Council is calling on residents to have their say on the draft Amendment No.3 to the Georges River Development Control Plan (DCP) 2021 that goes on exhibition today.

The Georges River DCP 2021 came into effect on 8 October 2021 to support the Georges River LEP 2021. The Georges River DCP harmonised and replaced the Kogarah DCP 2013 and Hurstville DCP No.1. DCP controls for the Hurstville City Centre were excluded from the consolidation process and the Georges River DCP currently does not apply to land located within the Hurstville City Centre.

The draft Amendment No.30 proposes to include the DCP controls relating to the Hurstville City Centre into the Georges River DCP. The proposed changes in draft Amendment No. 3 also address a number of housekeeping issues throughout the DCP comprising of unintended omissions, numerical, typographical, interpretation and formatting errors.

The community should be aware that no changes to the Georges River LEP are proposed as part of the subject amendment to the Georges River DCP.

Mayor Nick Katris said, "I encourage community members to engage with this public exhibition to assist Council as we move forward with planning for Georges River and our built environment.

"Council is always open to the opinions and comments from our community to help us make the best decisions for our future."

The Draft Amendment No.3 to the Georges River DCP is on public exhibition until Friday 19 May 2023. Visit Council's Your Say
