JOHN OXLEY DRIVE PRECINCT - Structure Plan, July 2012 In simplified terms a planning agreement is a voluntary agreement, between a Council and a person: (a) who has sought a change to an environmental planning instrument, or (b) who has made, or proposes to make, a development application, under which the person imay dedicate land free of cost, pay a monetary contribution, or provide any other material public benefit, to be used for a public purpose. The preparation of planning agreements can be complex (particularly when there are multiple parties each with their own agreement), and is subject to statutory processes to ensure transparency and equity. However, planning agreements can still facilitate relatively quick and flexible arrangements to suit a small area, and can reduce expenditure on infrastructure before it is needed. Planning agreements have been used elsewhere by Council to resolve similar issues.
