Council sought Expressions of Interest (EOI) from landowners to identify potential future residential land within the local government area.
Landowners were invited to complete the online survey and submit a concept subdivision plan aligned with the master planning principles.
This process will help Council understand site capability, landowner intentions and future housing opportunities beyond those identified in the Mid-Western Region Housing Strategy.
Submissions will be assessed against these principles, along with relevant constraints and opportunities. Following assessment, a recommendation will be made to Council on next steps.
EOI closed Friday, 29 May 2026.
The survey is not anonymous, and Council may contact respondents at a later date to discuss their submission in more detail, seek clarification on the information provided, or explore the potential of the land further as part of ongoing strategic planning investigations.
Is Council rezoning this land on behalf of landowners?
No, Council is not proposing to rezone land as part of this project.
Is this compulsory acquisition? What is compulsory acquisition?
No, this is not a compulsory acquisition
Compulsory acquisition is when a government authority has the legal power to acquire privately owned land without the owner’s consent if the land is needed for a public purpose. This is not something that will occur as part of this project.
