Development Pipeline

Urban Development Program (UDP) has identified a pipeline of steps as land progresses from paddocks to lots for dwellings. Temporally, the pipeline stages are: unzoned englobo land, zoned englobo land, proposed lots and lots with a title.

Englobo land

Large pieces of land that have been identified for future subdivision into lots for dwellings. In the Urban Development Program pipeline this type of land is divided into two stages: unzoned englobo land and zoned englobo land.

Greenfield land

Former rural land on the edge of a settlement that is being developed for housing, typically detached houses.

Lots with a title

This is land that has been registered, provided with a title and ready for dwellings to be built. The data is sourced from Vicmap.

Major Infill

Major infill is land within the established area of a settlement that is greater than 1 ha in area. These pieces of land are often remnant greenfield land. They have been identified in consultation with council. They are not included as greenfield supply.

Precinct Structure Plan

A land-use and infrastructure plan to guide development of the area over time. It sets out the intended future land uses, infrastructure and development guidelines.

Proposed lots

This is land that has been included as “proposed” within the Vicmap Property dataset. Some changes to these lots may occur before they receive a title. The data is sourced from Vicmap.

Retail Lots

Lots that have been subdivided from englobo land into lots for dwellings to be built. In the Urban Development Program pipeline this type of land is divided into two stages: proposed lots and lots with a title.

Unzoned englobo land

This is englobo land that has been identified for future residential development by council through the Planning Policy Framework, an adopted housing and settlement strategy, etc. In some locations it is currently zoned Urban Growth Zone and will go through a precinct structure planning process. In other locations it is zoned as a non-urban use such Farm Zone. The UDP provides an estimate of the potential retail lot yield within a precinct.

Zoned englobo land

This is englobo land that is zoned and available for subdivision into retail lots. The UDP provides an estimate of the potential retail lot yield. The final lot yield that will be delivered is subject to council planning approval processes.
