Land Use Zones

What is Land Use Zoning?

Land Use Zoning classifies the type of development allowed on a parcel of land.

Employment Zones

Employment zones commence within Wentworth Local Environmental Plan on 26 April 2023. From 26 April 2023, in a document (other than a state environmental planning policy) a reference to a former zone under an environmental planning instrument is taken to include a reference to a new zone under the environmental planning instrument.

To determine the new zone for previously zoned Business and Industrial zoned land please refer to the published equivalent zones tables.

NB: Document means an Act, statutory or other instrument, contract or agreement, and includes a document issued or made under or for the purposes of an Act or statutory or other instrument.”
