What plans and policies affect my area?

When reading the information below, please be aware that most of the individual town plans inform the most important planning document, the South Gippsland Planning Scheme.

If you want to know the final word on how growth is assessed in a town - please refer to the Planning Scheme (local towns are addressed in clause 21.15). It is worth reading this for a clear understanding of how township growth is proposed to occur.

Aside from the town specific strategies, we recommend looking at the wider, Shire Strategies that also influence growth within South Gippsland. Remember you can seek additional information from a council planner by phoning 5662 9200.
