MT ATKINSON AND TARNEIT PLAINS PRECINCT STRUCTURE PLANS LANDOWNER UPDATE (CONCEPT PLAN) OCTOBER 2014 A place to live & work in Melbourne’s thriving west The Metropolitan Planning Authority has commenced preparation of the Mt Atkinson Precinct Structure Plan (PSP) and the Tarneit Plains PSP, in consultation with Melton City Council. These PSPs will establish the future layout for a proposed new community of 15,000 – 20,000 residents, and for a business and industrial precinct which will form part of the emerging ‘Western Industrial Node’. The PSPs will identify the future location for: • residential, business and industrial uses; • new town centre/s and neighbourhood centre/s; and • new community infrastructure, parks, green corridors and waterways. These will be supported by a network of major roads, public transport, footpaths and cycle networks CONCEPT PLAN AND NEXT STEPS Staff at the MPA held an information session for landowners within the PSP areas on 16th September 2014, with Melton City Council officers assisting with enquiries. The session included display of a ‘concept plan’ (copy overleaf). www.mpa.vic.gov.au Background reports are currently being developed, regarding Aboriginal and post-contact heritage; future infrastructure servicing; land and buffer requirements; biodiversity; drainage and water supply; community infrastructure; and commercial and industrial land review. These will inform development of a ‘Future Urban Structure’ plan for consultation with landowners in 2015 and a development contributions plan to fund local infrastructure when land is developed.
