Part 4 Local Government Infrastructure Plan
The Local Government Infrastructure Plan (‘the LGIP’) is adopted to:
- integrate infrastructure planning with the land use planning identified in Council’s planning scheme;
- provide transparency regarding Council’s intentions for the provision of trunk infrastructure for the Region;
- enable Council to estimate the cost of infrastructure provision to assist its long-term financial planning;
- ensure that trunk infrastructure is planned and provided in an efficient and orderly manner; and
- provide a basis for the imposition of conditions about infrastructure on development approvals upon development.
The LGIP identifies trunk infrastructure plans for the following five networks that provide essential services for development:
- Water supply;
- Wastewater;
- Stormwater;
- Transport;
- Public parks and land for community facilities.
