A Local Environmental Plan (LEP) is a legal document which controls land use and development in a local government area. A LEP contains information such as land use zones, building heights, heritage items and local conditions, such as landscaping.
The Georges River LEP (GRLEP) 2021 came into effect on 8 October 2021 and applies to land within the Georges River local government area, as per the GRLEP 2021 Land Application Map.
The following is a list of amendments to the GRLEP 2021.
