On 21 April 2020, Council endorsed the draft Waverley Development Control Plan 2012 (Amendment 8) and draft Waverley Community Participation Plan (Amendment 1) for public exhibition.

The draft Waverley Development Control Plan 2012 (Amendment 8) (WDCP) is a housekeeping amendment that seeks to:

  • Delete Part A2 Advertising and Notification, as this is now covered by the Community Participation Plan.
  • Restructure Part C Residential Development for greater clarity.
  • Extended Inter-War buildings provisions to apply to all buildings typologies (not just residential).
  • Strengthen controls to protect character of semi-detached dwellings.
  • Improve security in the public domain and large developments.
  • Correct spelling and numerical errors, and other corrections of a minor nature.

Please note that the proposed changes to the WDCP are of a housekeeping nature only, as Council intends to undertake a comprehensive review of the WDCP in 2020/21 to align with the Planning in Waverley project.

The proposed changes to the Waverley Community Participation Plan (Amendment 1) are corrective or seek to reduce the administrative burden on Council.

The draft WDCP is available to view from the 'Document Library'

Any persons wishing to make a submission in relation to the draft WDCP can do so in writing to the General Manager until Monday 15 June 2020.

Please quote reference number SF20/2887, and address any correspondence to:
