The Tasmanian Planning Scheme, including the West Tamar Local Provisions Schedule, is now effective in the municipality.  It was formally gazetted on 9 February 2022.

The Tasmanian Planning Scheme is made up of two components: 

1.         The State Planning Provisions
2.         The Local Provisions Schedule.

The intent of the Tasmanian Planning Scheme is to achieve as much consistency as possible in the planning rules that apply across the State.

State Planning Provisions 

The State Planning Provisions (SPPs) have been approved by the Minister for Planning.

You can view the provisions at the planning reform website.

West Tamar Local Provisions Schedule

The West Tamar Local Provisions Schedule (LPS) relates to our specific Council area and allows for planning rules that cater for the unique qualities of the West Tamar.

The Tasmanian Planning Scheme including the LPS can be viewed on the Tasmanian Planning Commission Website and the mapping can be viewed on LISTmap by adding the Tasmanian Planning Scheme zone and overlay layers.
