The West Tamar Growth Strategy and Infrastructure Plan outlines a long-term vision and plan for managing land use, infrastructure and development across the municipality to 2046 and beyond.

The Growth Strategy will form the foundational strategic planning direction for the municipality and plans for a forecast population for the West Tamar Municipality by 2046 of around 33,700 people, growing by over 7,300 people. It provides capacity for an additional 3,368 dwellings.

The development of the Growth Strategy included extensive consultation with the community and infrastructure providers and a thorough suitability analysis taking into account infrastructure capacity, environmental considerations and natural hazards (including climate change impacts).

The Growth Strategy details the preferred Growth Scenario for West Tamar and recommends priority actions for implementation.

The West Tamar Growth Strategy and Infrastructure Plan were adopted by Council on 16 December 2025.
