Narrabri Place Strategy
The Department of Planning, Housing and Infrastructure, together with Narrabri Shire Council, developed the Narrabri Place Strategy and Rezoning Proposal, a 20-year vision to accommodation growth in the area and deliver more homes and jobs.
The Department publicly exhibited the draft Place Strategy and supporting Rezoning Proposal from 23 August 2024 to 20 September 2024 and received 52 submissions. Feedback received during the exhibition informed the finalisation of these Plans.
The Rezoning Proposal enabled the rezoning of land in Narrabri for new homes, facilities, infrastructure and services, and details the planning framework and legislative amendments for rezoning under the Narrabri Local Environmental Plan 2012 (LEP).
Find out how we responded to feedback by reading the Finalisation Report and you can access the Place Strategy from Narrabri Shire Council.
The Rezoning Proposal enables delivery of:
- approximately 2,100 new homes on flood-free land in the residential precinct
- around 600 new jobs in the Northern NSW Inland Port and employment lands precincts.
Development applications can be made to Council for any new development in the precincts that meets the requirements of the Rezoning Proposal and Narrabri LEP.
