Mandatory Planning Panels

About the new, mandatory Planning Panels

On 10 August 2017, the NSW Parliament enacted key changes to the Environmental Planning & Assessment and Electoral legislation.  These changes set up mandatory Minister-appointed Planning Panels that will now assess developments above $5 Million, excluding Local Councillors from the process.  An analysis of the impacts of this decision has been compiled by long-time Better Planning Network member Phil Jenkyn, Co-convenor of the Save Hunters Hill Municipality Coalition.  The analysis can be downloaded here.
