Plan to have your say on future planning

IF you want a say in how a Dubbo or a Wellington of the future looks, now’s your chance.

The draft Dubbo Regional Local Environmental Plan (LEP) is now on the table, and community members are invited to take a look and provide feedback and input as to how planning, development, zoning, lot sizes and general controls on development might take shape in years to come.

After the amalgamation of Dubbo and Wellington councils and until now, Dubbo Regional Council (DRC) has been operating under two separate LEPS, so consolidating the two makes sense to ensure that planning controls and provisions are consistent across the local government area.

The draft LEP is on public exhibition until 30 June 2021, and the community is able to book an appointment with council’s staff to discuss how the changes might affect them.
