About the Precinct Structure Plan
A key component of the Officer Precinct Structure Plan is the town centre, which is identified as a major town centre in key strategic planning documents, including Plan Melbourne. Since the original Officer Precinct Structure Plan was approved in 2011, there has been little private investment in the additional services and facilities required by the growing community. The Victorian Planning Authority (VPA) and Council have worked together to amend the previously approved PSP, with the aim to unlock investment in the town centre.
Amendment VC249
The Development Contributions Plan (DCP) for this precinct was amended as a result of Amendment VC249.
On 15 January 2024, Amendment VC249 came into effect to further facilitate the development of small second dwellings introduced by Amendment VC253. Amendment VC249 exempts development for a small second dwelling from existing development contributions plans. The changes ensure an applicant does not pay a development contribution when a small second dwelling is developed.
