Planning

A vision for development

The City of Albany is responsible for providing a vision for the future development of Albany, as well as for assessing the planning merit of individual projects on private lots.

The Albany Local Planning Strategy draws together all of the strategies prepared in the past and provides the blueprint for the City’s growth over the next two decades.

City planners are available to assist residents, investors and landowners with any planning inquiry and they encourage proponents to discuss their projects with staff at a preliminary stage, well before formal lodgement, to expedite the approval process.

More information on the Albany Local Planning Strategy is available by following the link.

The City’s Town Planning Schemes provide the legal framework against which individual development proposals will be considered.

The Town Planning Schemes may be supported by Council policies and guidelines to further explain the development requirements. More information on the Town Planning Schemes is available by following the link.
