The NCA implemented these guidelines in July 2018, after careful consideration and following the consultation feedback on Draft Amendment 89. The submissions in response to this amendment highlighted a number of important values that residents and respondents would like to see retained within the Deakin Forrest Residential Precinct. These guidelines aim to provide residents and/or developers with further clarity on the requirements on the National Capital Plan and therefore upholding the values of the Plan.
