Are you affected by Western Parkland City Land Acquisition?
The current key Western Sydney land acquisition projects include the Aerotropolis , Austral, Leppington and Edmondson Park. Each of these locations have forced acquisition of land or easements to create infrastructure for new housing estates all across the South Western Sydney area.
In response to the State Environmental Planning Policy Precincts – Western Parkland City, land within the Camden Council and Liverpool City Council local government areas have been rezoned . The Councils and also the NSW Department of Education and Communities have commenced acquisitions within the Austral and Leppington Precincts. The acquisitions relate to full and partial acquisitions of land zoned SP2 Local Roads, SP2 Local Drainage, RE1 Local Open Space and SP2 Educational Establishment.
In December 2021, the state government rezoned the land to be acquired, and that land is showing its new zoning on the NSW Planning Portal. Land values continue to rise rapidly in and around Austral and Leppington causing concern for owners on being compensated on for the potential of their land as compared to that of their neighbours which are not affected.
We are also seeing development applications within Liverpool City Council being approved
subject to the land the subject of a future partial acquisition being noted within the approved
subdivision plans as a separate lot.
