What is a DCP? A Development Control Plan (DCP) is a set of detailed planning and design guidelines used to support and supplement existing local area planning controls. A DCP may apply to any form of development, including multiple dwelling housing, or to development proposed in a particular area or locality such as the UWS site. DCP’s usually outline a number of objectives for a site and list the planning guidelines intended to achieve them. These can include key design elements such as the height of buildings or the width of footpaths. Additionally, a DCP can also provide direction on important amenity issues such as how views and vistas will be maintained or access and entry to a site will be regulated. A DCP is reviewed and adopted by Council, according to the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act 1979 and regulations.
