Stage 2 – Activity Centre Changes for More Housing
In 2025 we covered Planning Scheme Amendment VC267, the new Townhouse and Low-Rise Code, which introduced changes to the content and processes of the residential design standards (Cl54 & 54) in the Victorian Planning Provisions. We also covered Planning Scheme Amendment GC252 which introduced the new Housing Choice and Transport Zone (HCTZ) and Built Form Overlay (BFO), applying the new zone and overlay to various activity centres in Metropolitan Melbourne.
