Voluntary Planning Agreements on Exhibition

Please Note: Not all VPAs received by Council require public notification. Council follows a Community Participation Plan (CPP) that outlines the mandatory community engagement requirements (how and when Council will engage with the community) on planning matters. The CPP reflects the community participation requirements in planning legislation, including mandatory consultation timeframes.
