Canterbury Development Control Plan 2012

The Canterbury Development Control Plan 2012 supported the LEP by providing additional objectives and development controls to enhance the function and appearance of development in the former Canterbury LGA. The development controls included storey limits, setbacks, urban design, amenity, landscaping, access and parking.

The Canterbury Local Environment Plan (LEP) is supported by Canterbury Development Control Plan 2012 which also came into force on 1 January 2013. The DCP contains more detailed development controls, standards and guidelines for all new development in the Canterbury part of the City of Canterbury-Bankstown. Parts of the DCP can be accessed below.​
