Temporary Local Planning Instrument 01/2023

A Temporary Local Planning Instrument (TLPI) is a temporary statutory planning document that is created under the Planning Act 2016 in response to changing or emerging planning issues and deals with specific or localised matters.

A TLPI:

• may suspend or affect the operation of the planning scheme as identified by the TLPI,
• does not amend or repeal the planning scheme,
• does not create a superseded planning scheme, and
• is not an adverse planning change under the Planning Act 2016.

TLPI 01/2023 – Finch Hatton Flood Hazard Regulation

On January 11, 2024, council decided to adopt TLPI 01/2023 Finch Hatton Flood Regulation and the TLPI came into effect on January 19, 2024.

The purpose and general effect of TLPI 01/2023 is to:

• identify flood hazard areas in Finch Hatton, and
• appropriately manage flood risk to ensure development does not result in an intolerable risk to people, property, infrastructure or the environment.
