Planning Proposals

A planning proposal, also known as a rezoning application, is a request to amend a Local Environmental Plan (LEP). It must align with both the strategic intent of the Parramatta Local Environmental Plan and the broader guide to planning proposals provided by the NSW Department of Planning.
