Amendment VC283 has now been gazetted which replaces Plan Melbourne 2017 – 2050 with the newly released Plan for Victoria. The Amendment updates the Victoria Planning Provisions and all planning schemes to bring Plan for Victoria to life.        

Key changes include:

• Embedding a new vision for Victoria
• Introducing the five pillars – housing, jobs, places, environment, and self-determination
• Setting housing targets for every LGA – 2.24 million homes over the next 30 years
• Strengthening policy around urban forests, tree canopy targets and urban heat

This marks a major shift in Victoria’s planning framework – aligning housing, jobs, environment, and cultural recognition into one living plan for the future. Mecone welcomes this new plan and significant milestone.
