At its meeting on Monday, 11 December 2023, Clarence City Council voted to approve the revised Skylands Masterplan.

Skylands is a private development which proposes to build 2,600 homes on the Droughty Peninsula over the next 30 years. Following the approval of the Masterplan, which provides the vision and principles - the Council will prepare the Droughty Peninsula structure Plan.

This is where council will focus on the practical implementation of the vision, to ensure – a desirable urban form, a legible and connected movement network, provision for an appropriate range of, open spaces, recreation, commercial and community facilities, all set to a logical staging program.

A key focus of the structure plan will be to develop the implementation framework for the 30-year lifespan of the project.

Once a Droughty Peninsula Structure Plan has been drafted, a community consultation will commence and you will be able to have your say through a number of different ways, including an online survey, in person at Council Chambers, and written submissions.
