Local Environmental Plan
Mosman Local Environmental Plan (LEP) 2012 commenced on 1 February 2012.
It is the principal legal document for controlling development and guiding planning decisions made by Council to facilitate new development that is compatible and appropriate with the preferred role and character of an area.
LEPs commonly control and guide proposed development using land use zones and development standards.
In addition to land use zones and development standards, LEPs include other planning provisions which set out additional planning controls or matters to consider to further guide development. For example, heritage provisions are included in LEPs to ensure heritage values are specifically considered and addressed in development assessment.
