Project Status Updates
Project Status Update – September 2025
The draft planning scheme amendment of the Bendigo Regional Employment Precinct proposes to rezone the precinct to Industrial 1 Zone while applying a Development Plan Overlay to guide its future development.
Since our last update in May, we have progressed the preparation of the draft planning scheme amendment (PSA) documentation for exhibition. In addition, we have:
- Undertaken targeted consultation with landowners and key stakeholders.
- Finalised a range of background studies that will inform the exhibition process.
- Engaged with the City of Greater Bendigo and agencies on the draft ordinance.
- Engaged with the Dja Dja Wurrung Clans Aboriginal Corporation to understand the cultural significances within or surrounding the precinct.
In the coming months, we will be providing an update to landowners on the draft PSA documentation prior to the formal exhibition, scheduled to commence in late 2025.
