The Shire of Narrogin is pleased to announce that the new Local Planning Scheme (No. 3) has come into effect on 3 May 2023, replacing the former Town Planning Schemes of the former Town of Narrogin and former Shire of Narrogin. This milestone achievement is the result of extensive collaboration and consultation with the community, stakeholders, and relevant government agencies.
