The City is seeking comments on draft Local Planning Policy 2.24: Waste Management Plans (LPP 2.24) that amends and updates the current Waste Managment Plans for New Development LPP.
At the 14 May 2025 Ordinary Council Meeting the draft policy was unanimously endorsed by Council for the purpose of public advertising and community engagement. The policy is now open for community comment.
In summary, the following changes have been made to the current LPP:
Clarifies when a Waste Management Plan is required, which is for most forms of non-residential development and larger residential developments.
Removed specific guidance for the preparation of Waste Management Plans. A separate guidance document, Waste Management Guidelines, will be developed by the City’s Waste Management Team to be used in conjunction with the LPP.
Change policy name from 'Waste Management Plans for New Development' to 'Waste Management Plans' to reflect the introduction of the requirement for Waste Mangement Plans to be submitted to support applications for change of use, or substantial additions and alterations to non-residential development.
The City recognises that the adoption of this policy may affect residents, developers and businesses within the community. This engagement process seeks to inform the public of this policy proposal and collect feedback from individuals, groups, and organisations for Council to consider before its final adoption.
