A precinct is an area that may be identified as offering the opportunity for urban renewal across a particular geographic or socio-economic area. This includes identifying the potential for improved and more sustainable options for transport, jobs and housing.
A precinct can be defined as a particular site, as a centre-based precinct such as a particular suburb, or a larger corridor or cluster of centres or suburbs.
The precinct boundary, on whatever scale, will require approval by the Department of Planning and Infrastructure under the Urban Renewal SEPP 2010 to be considered a potential precinct which will allow further assessment to be undertaken by the UGDC under the Growth Centres Act.
