Planning proposals

A Planning Proposal is the first step in preparing a Local Environmental Plan (LEP). It is a document that explains a request or intended effect of a proposed LEP and details the justification for making that plan.

Generally, the proposed LEP is intended to amend Council’s principal LEP, for example, the Shoalhaven Local Environmental Plan (LEP) 2014.
