A Development Control Plan (DCP) is a locally adopted plan that guides developers, landowners, Council and the community on how land can be developed and change over time, and includes measures such as planning principles, objectives, performance measures and acceptable solutions. It aims to ensure we can continue to develop our urban area with a strong emphasis on overall liveability, quality and sustainability.
