AU Australia property term

Local Planning Policy (LPP)

Western Australia

Plain-English definition

A policy adopted by a local government to guide planning decisions and address local development issues consistently.

Why this matters to a foreign buyer

An LPP is not the same as the local planning scheme, but it can materially influence approval conditions and design expectations. Read both documents.
