Amendment GC276 to the Inner West Employment Zoning
The Minister for Planning has prepared and adopted a planning scheme amendment to rezone land in Tottenham, West Footscray, Yarraville and Brooklyn called the Inner West Employment Zoning. The Inner West Employment Zoning Amendment GC276 was Gazetted on 4 September 2026.
The Inner West Employment Zoning consists of two precincts – Sunshine Road Precinct and Brooklyn Precinct. The amendment rezoned land to support employment uses that are less reliant on heavy vehicles, taking more large trucks away from residential areas in the inner west.
