Holroyd Development Control Plan 2007

Holroyd Development Control Plan 2007 provides specific guidelines on how development of a particular type and/or at a particular location is to occur.

New development should meet the requirements of the DCP. Potential developers should therefore consult the relevant DCP Parts and sections below to ensure Council's requirements are satisfied.

The entire DCP may be purchased on CD-ROM for $30.75. Alternatively, a hard copy of the Main Volume (Parts A – K, excluding Sections 8-15 of Section G) may be purchased for $120.00. Hard copies of Sections 8-15 of Section G, which include area specific controls for the Neil Street and Merrylands Town Centre Precincts, Holroyd Gardens, and the Pemulwuy Employment and Residential Lands, may be purchased, on application, at production cost.

You can consult the information sheet on the DCP 2007.

Council also has a number of policies and codes that, whilst not technically part of Holroyd Development Control Plan 2007, set out requirements which should be met. These should also be consulted where relevant.
