City of Greater Dandenong submission to DELWP Green Wedge project
In January 2021, Council officers made a submission in response to the Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning's (DELWPs) 'Planning for Melbourne's Green Wedges and Agricultural Land' project consultation paper. While being generally supportive of the options proposed, officers have, among other matters, highlighted the need to further strengthen the legislative protections of the green wedge, requested consideration of how to capture land value uplift to encourage land to be used for green wedge purposes, have identified certain uses that should be prohibited in the green wedge, and stated that soil and earth storage should form part of this project.
DELWP will now consider all submissions made and advise the community of the outcomes in due course.
