Sydney Development Control Plan

The Sydney Development Control Plan (DCP) is a set of guidelines used by local authorities to regulate land use and building standards in Sydney. It ensures new developments are appropriate for their location, promote sustainable growth, and enhance the community’s character. The DCP covers aspects like design, aesthetics, safety, environmental impact, and infrastructure. It helps developers and the public understand what is expected for new projects and makes sure development aligns with broader city planning goals. Essentially, it guides responsible and well-considered growth within the city.
