Project Update April 2025

This post provides an update on the Planning Proposal to introduce a new Princess Street heritage conservation area and additional heritage listings in Shoalhaven Local Environment Plan (LEP) 2014.

This overall project also includes the preparation of a new chapter of Shoalhaven Development Control Plan (DCP) 2014 for Berry, east of the Princes Highway.

The draft DCP Chapter is being finalised and is expected to be reported to Council’s 29 April 2025 meeting. Council will consider the detail of the draft DCP Chapter and its future public exhibition. A further update will be provided to confirm when the report is finalised and included in the meeting agenda.

The Planning Proposal is awaiting a Gateway determination (required initial approval for the Planning Proposal to proceed). Council will continue to follow this up with NSW Planning.

Project updates will continue to be published on the Get Involved project page in the coming months.
