Project updates

A new DCP for the Inner West

Council is currently developing a new Development Control Plan (DCP) for the Inner West, to use with the Inner West Local Environmental Plan (LEP) 2022.

To ensure the new DCP is workable and reflects the unique characteristics of the Inner West, we’re inviting all planning professionals with an understanding of our unique community to share your knowledge, participate in discussions and provide your expert recommendations by participating in a workshop.

Find out more about this empowering opportunity below.


Current Development Planning Controls

Inner West Council currently has three Development Control Plans that apply to the former Ashfield, Leichhardt and Marrickville Councils, these are still in use and can be viewed below.
