Development Contribution Plans (DCPs)
What is a Development Contribution Plan (DCP) & Infrastructure Contribution Plan (ICP)?
When land is developed, it triggers a need for new or upgraded infrastructure for the future communities.
A DCP or ICP is used to collect payments towards providing this infrastructure, such as roads, drains, community facilities and sports reserves.
We collect DCP and ICP levies from new development through an approved DCP, ICP or Precinct Structure Plan (PSP). These are part of the Cardinia Planning Scheme
