Sydney Eastern City Planning Panel Determination and Local Traffic Committee

16 September 2022

Sydney Eastern City Planning Panel (SECPP) at its meeting on 1 September 2022 approved the MOD/2021/0376 application. Amongst other changes the application was to modify the conditions of consent at 750 Princes Highway, Tempe so that the LATM be adopted by the Panel, and the LATM (excluding attachments) report by Bitzios Consulting dated 6 July 2021 being a stamped document not requiring approval from Council’s Local Traffic Committee. Details can be found through the NSW Planning Portal.
