Amendment C282case to the Casey Planning Scheme
The Minister for Planning approved an amended Minta Farm Precinct Structure Plan on 24 June 2021 under Amendment C282case to the Casey Planning Scheme. Following the initial gazettal of the Minta Farm Precinct Structure Plan on 17 January 2019 (approved by Casey Amendment C228case), the Victorian Planning Authority (VPA) prepared the final Minta Farm Infrastructure Contributions Plan via Casey Amendment C269case. During the preparation of the final Infrastructure Contributions Plan, infrastructure projects were subject to a detailed consultation and review process, which resulted in minor changes to infrastructure designs.
The amended Minta Farm Precinct Structure Plan approved Amendment C282case ensures that the Precinct Structure Plan and Infrastructure Contributions Plan documents are consistent and that the correct land is set aside for infrastructure projects to be delivered through the Infrastructure Contributions Plan.

About the Precinct Structure Plan
The VPA, in consultation with Casey City Council and government agencies, has prepared this PSP to guide new urban development within the Minta Farm precinct area.
The Minta Farm Precinct has a total land area of approximately 285 hectares of land within the City of Casey and is around 40 kilometres south east of Melbourne’s Central Business District. The site is generally bounded by the Princes Freeway to the north, Cardinia Creek to the east, Grices Road to the south and Soldiers Road to the west.
The Future Urban Structure (FUS) plan illustrates the vision for the development of approximately 3,043 dwellings and a regionally significant employment hub that is envisioned to support around 11,000 local jobs. The new Local Town Centre supporting a mix of commercial, office and knowledge-based and technology businesses, will provide opportunities for diverse range of employment close to home.
Minta Farm Infrastructure Contributions Plan
The last stage of the planning process was the approval of the associated Infrastructure Contribution Plan (ICP) which will allow development of this area to begin.
