Posted 13 June 2025 Draft Local Planning Policy - Social Impact Assessment

Notice is hereby given that the Shire of Narrogin has recently approved the Draft Local Planning Policy on Social Impact Assessment. The policy is designed to ensure that major developments, particularly those with the potential for significant social impacts, such as renewable energy facilities and large-scale industrial proposals, consider community wellbeing as part of the planning process. The policy establishes when a Social Impact Assessment (SIA) or a Social Impact Statement (SIS) is required and outlines expectations for meaningful engagement with the community.
