Policy on Planning Agreements
In 2005 the NSW Government changed the laws governing developer contributions, allowing for planning agreements to be entered into.
Hornsby Shire Council has adopted a policy on planning agreements, which allows Council to enter into a voluntary agreement with a developer to make contributions for a public purpose. These contributions may be instead of, or in conjunction with, Section 7.11 development contributions. Any agreement Council proposes to enter into, and the public purposes to be funded or provided, will be exhibited for public comment.
