Review of subdivision standards

Summary

This project will consider improvements to the development standards for subdivision, incorporating relevant requirements from the Local Government (Building and Miscellaneous Provisions) Act 1993 (LGBMP Act). The State Planning Office will work in partnership with Local Government Association of Tasmania (LGAT).

Project scoping commenced in September 2023.

The next steps will be developing a project brief and engaging a consultant to assist with preparing subdivision guidelines and making recommendations about improvements to the subdivision standards in the SPPs and incorporating relevant parts of the LGBMP Act. The project will involve consultation with key stakeholders in the early stages to assist with research and analysing issues, then broader public consultation on draft subdivision guidelines and recommended improvements to the SPPs.

The project will result in publication of subdivision guidelines and preparation of draft SPPs amendments.
