Why a Local Area Plan?

Brighton Council and Mesh Planning (Mesh) are preparing a Local Area Plan (LAP) to guide future growth, land use, infrastructure, and community outcomes for Brighton and Pontville. The preparation of a LAP was a key recommendation of the recently endorsed Brighton Activity Centre Strategy.

The LAP will balance new development with local character, support jobs and services, protect heritage, and improve transport and public spaces. It will ensure that the future development of these suburbs is aligned to local, regional and state planning policy and strategies.
