About the Pakenham East Precinct Structure Plan

The Pakenham East Precinct Structure Plan (PSP) has been prepared by the Victorian Planning Authority (VPA) and Cardinia Shire Council in consultation with government agencies, service authorities and major stakeholders. It is a long-term strategic plan to guide urban development. It describes how land is expected to be developed, what natural assets must be protected and the infrastructure and services planned to support the new and growing community.
