Overview

The Draft LSPS outlines the 20-year vision, planning priorities and actions for land use planning in the Lane Cove Local Government Area.
This Draft Statement translates the current visions and strategies expressed in the Community Strategic Plan, and related actions in the Delivery Program, into specific land use planning priorities and actions. It has also been informed by Council's Local Environmental Plan Review (Health Check) which took into account the provisions of:
- 10 Directions for a Greater Sydney;
- A Metropolis of Three Cities (Greater Sydney Region Plan);
- North District Plan;
- Future Transport Strategy 2056;
- Greater Sydney Services and Infrastructure Plan;
- Council's Local Environmental Plan; and
