West Dapto Development Contributions Plan (2025) PDF, 11067.03 KB

The West Dapto Development Contributions Plan (2025) was adopted by Council on 7 April 2025 and came into force on 10 April 2025.

This plan applies to the West Dapto Urban Release Area (shown in Figure 1 of the plan).

The plan levies contributions in one of two ways:

  • Residential development - contributions are levied per additional lot or dwelling
  • Non-residential development (ie industrial or commercial) - contributions are levied per hectare.

The current indexed contribution rates, indexed to December 2024, are shown below. Please note that the rates will be indexed again on 31 July 2025.

Residential development Rate per lot / dwelling*
Subdivision, dual occupancy etc $91,652.83

Multi-unit housing 3 bedrooms $71,603.78
Multi-unit housing 2 bedrooms $63,011.32

* In accordance with the Ministerial Direction issued under s7.17 of the EP&A Act and the advice from the Minster for Planning and Public Spaces the plan is considered an IPART reviewed plan and has approval to levy over the $30,000 cap. As the LIGS funding subsidy ended on 30 June 2020, the developer will be levied the full contribution rate.
