Beveridge North West Precinct Structure Plan

The Beveridge North West Precinct Structure Plan converts a 1,279.35 hectare northern growth corridor precinct into an urban framework for about 14,991 dwellings, 46,473 residents and 2,877 jobs, with the main planning tension being that a very large residential precinct has relatively modest internal employment and therefore depends heavily on transport, sewer, water and power connections beyond the precinct boundary. (Source: Beveridge-North-West-Precinct-Structure-Plan-Victorian-Planning-Authority-November-2024.pdf, p.8; Source: Beveridge-North-West-Precinct-Structure-Plan-Victorian-Planning-Authority-November-2024.pdf, p.42)

The precinct is not just a housing plan: 400.37 hectares, or 31.29 percent of the precinct, is assigned to open space, waterways, drainage, landscape values and sports reserves, so the real development mechanism is a trade-off between residential yield, landscape protection, stormwater management, transport reservations and public infrastructure delivery. (Source: Beveridge-North-West-Precinct-Structure-Plan-Victorian-Planning-Authority-November-2024.pdf, p.8)

Background

The PSP applies to land bounded by the Hume Freeway to the east, Camerons Lane to the south, Old Sydney Road to the west and the Hadfield Road reservation to the north, about 40 kilometres north of the Melbourne CBD. (Source: Beveridge-North-West-Precinct-Structure-Plan-Victorian-Planning-Authority-November-2024.pdf, p.4)

The VPA prepared the PSP with Mitchell Shire Council, government agencies, service authorities and major stakeholders, and the PSP is intended to guide permit decisions under Schedule 3 to the Urban Growth Zone in the Mitchell Planning Scheme. (Source: Beveridge-North-West-Precinct-Structure-Plan-Victorian-Planning-Authority-November-2024.pdf, p.2; Source: Beveridge-North-West-Precinct-Structure-Plan-Victorian-Planning-Authority-November-2024.pdf, p.4)

The PSP sits within the Growth Corridor Plans, Plan Melbourne, Plan for Victoria, Victoria’s Housing Statement, the Biodiversity Conservation Strategy for Melbourne’s Growth Areas and the Precinct Structure Planning Guidelines. (Source: Beveridge-North-West-Precinct-Structure-Plan-Victorian-Planning-Authority-November-2024.pdf, p.2)

Amendment C106mith was the exhibited amendment considered by Planning Panels Victoria in 2020, and the Panel described the PSP area as a significant growth precinct between Wallan and Beveridge with strong policy support for urban development but a major unresolved issue around Work Authority 1473 and the proposed quarry. (Source: Panel-Report-Mitchell-Planning-Scheme-Amendment-C106mith-Beveridge-North-West-PSP-Planning-Panels-Victoria-October-2020.pdf, pp.i-iii)

The later VPA project page records that Amendment C158mith for the PSP, Amendment C161mith for the Infrastructure Contributions Plan, and Amendment C175mith for the quarry at 175 Northern Highway were each gazetted on 5 August 2025.

Analysis

Land Supply, Yield and Development Pattern

The PSP has a gross precinct area of 1,279.35 hectares and a net developable area of 768.18 hectares, meaning 60.04 percent of the precinct is counted as net developable land and 39.96 percent is removed from the development base through transport, community and education land, open space, drainage, waterways and landscape values. (Source: Beveridge-North-West-Precinct-Structure-Plan-Victorian-Planning-Authority-November-2024.pdf, p.8)

The largest non-developable component is open space and environmental land: waterway and drainage reserves occupy 125.98 hectares, landscape values occupy 195.26 hectares, local network parks occupy 23.92 hectares, and local sports reserves occupy 55.20 hectares. (Source: Beveridge-North-West-Precinct-Structure-Plan-Victorian-Planning-Authority-November-2024.pdf, p.8)

The land budget shows that total open space is 400.37 hectares, which is 31.29 percent of the precinct and 52.12 percent of net developable area when expressed against NDA, so open-space and waterway structure is not a secondary layer but the dominant spatial organiser of the PSP. (Source: Beveridge-North-West-Precinct-Structure-Plan-Victorian-Planning-Authority-November-2024.pdf, p.8)

The PSP estimates 14,991 dwellings across seven residential or mixed-use categories: 395 dwellings in town centres, 593 in mixed-use areas, 4,795 within walkable catchments, 7,107 in standard residential areas, 1,798 on sloping land, 139 in Sensitive Interface Area A and 163 in Sensitive Interface Area B. (Source: Beveridge-North-West-Precinct-Structure-Plan-Victorian-Planning-Authority-November-2024.pdf, p.42)

The density framework uses a total average density of 20 dwellings per net developable hectare, but it deliberately varies minimum average density by location: 25 dwellings per net developable hectare in town centres, mixed-use areas and walkable catchments; 18 dwellings per net developable hectare in standard residential areas; 15 dwellings per net developable hectare on sloping land; 12 dwellings per net developable hectare at the Old Sydney Road or Urban Growth Boundary interface; and 15.5 dwellings per net developable hectare at the landscape interface. (Source: Beveridge-North-West-Precinct-Structure-Plan-Victorian-Planning-Authority-November-2024.pdf, p.13)

The practical effect is that higher-density housing is concentrated around centres and public transport catchments, while the rural conservation, landscape and urban growth boundary interfaces absorb lower-density edge conditions. (Source: Beveridge-North-West-Precinct-Structure-Plan-Victorian-Planning-Authority-November-2024.pdf, p.13)

The PSP plans a population of 46,473 people using an assumed 3.1 people per dwelling, which means community infrastructure, schools, transport and utilities need to serve a settlement comparable to a substantial regional town rather than a small residential estate. (Source: Beveridge-North-West-Precinct-Structure-Plan-Victorian-Planning-Authority-November-2024.pdf, p.42)

The Panel report used an earlier exhibited yield of 16,286 dwellings and 45,601 to 50,487 residents, while the final PSP uses 14,991 dwellings and 46,473 residents, indicating that the final approved planning framework carries a lower dwelling count but a similar population order of magnitude. (Source: Panel-Report-Mitchell-Planning-Scheme-Amendment-C106mith-Beveridge-North-West-PSP-Planning-Panels-Victoria-October-2020.pdf, p.3; Source: Beveridge-North-West-Precinct-Structure-Plan-Victorian-Planning-Authority-November-2024.pdf, p.42)

Centres, Jobs and the Commuting Mechanism

The internal activity-centre network comprises four local town centres and two local convenience centres, with Southern LTC1 planned for 9,000 square metres of shop floor space and 2,700 square metres of commercial floor space, Eastern LTC2 planned for 3,300 square metres of shop floor space and 1,400 square metres of commercial floor space, and Northern LTC3 and Western LTC4 each planned for 6,300 square metres of shop floor space and 2,700 square metres of commercial floor space. (Source: Beveridge-North-West-Precinct-Structure-Plan-Victorian-Planning-Authority-November-2024.pdf, p.17)

The PSP estimates 1,581 jobs in town centres and mixed-use land, 106 jobs in community centres, 440 jobs in schools and 750 home-based jobs, producing a total of 2,877 estimated jobs for 46,473 residents. (Source: Beveridge-North-West-Precinct-Structure-Plan-Victorian-Planning-Authority-November-2024.pdf, p.42)

This job-resident balance is the key movement issue: the GTA transport model found the precinct is mostly residential, has relatively low employment, and will require most residents to travel outside the precinct for work. (Source: Beveridge-North-West-PSP-Strategic-Transport-Modelling-Assessment-GTA-Consultants-December-2018.pdf, p.10)

The 2018 transport model used 2046 inputs of 39,200 people, 14,000 dwellings, 1,750 jobs and 4,700 students, and forecast about 134,000 daily trips by 2046. (Source: Beveridge-North-West-PSP-Strategic-Transport-Modelling-Assessment-GTA-Consultants-December-2018.pdf, pp.10-11)

The model assumed the car mode share would remain 87 percent in both 2031 and 2046, with public transport at 13 percent, which translates to about 116,000 car trips by 2046. (Source: Beveridge-North-West-PSP-Strategic-Transport-Modelling-Assessment-GTA-Consultants-December-2018.pdf, p.11)

By 2046, the model forecast that 29 percent of daily car trips would be contained within Beveridge North West, 5 percent would travel to or from the Northern Growth Corridor East including the Beveridge Interstate Freight Terminal, and 65 percent would travel to or from the south, including the southern Northern Growth Corridor and the rest of metropolitan Melbourne. (Source: Beveridge-North-West-PSP-Strategic-Transport-Modelling-Assessment-GTA-Consultants-December-2018.pdf, p.12)

The implication is that the PSP’s centres are essential for local services and daily needs, but they do not remove the need for strong regional transport links because most work trips remain external to the precinct. (Source: Beveridge-North-West-PSP-Strategic-Transport-Modelling-Assessment-GTA-Consultants-December-2018.pdf, pp.10-12)

Transport Dependencies and Staging

The PSP infrastructure table stages roads and intersections over short, medium and long timeframes, with short defined as approximately 0 to 7 years, medium as 7 to 15 years, and long as 15 years and beyond. (Source: Beveridge-North-West-Precinct-Structure-Plan-Victorian-Planning-Authority-November-2024.pdf, p.43)

The core arterial structure includes Camerons Lane upgrades, a Western Arterial, an Eastern Arterial linked to the Patterson Road or E14 extension, multiple signalised intersections, pedestrian bridges over Kalkallo Creek, culverts, and a Camerons Lane Interchange delivered by the Department of Transport and Planning rather than through the local ICP table. (Source: Beveridge-North-West-Precinct-Structure-Plan-Victorian-Planning-Authority-November-2024.pdf, pp.43-49)

The transport model found severe interim congestion on Patterson Road and Camerons Lane in 2031, with the congestion relieved when those roads are upgraded from two lanes to four lanes in the ultimate case. (Source: Beveridge-North-West-PSP-Strategic-Transport-Modelling-Assessment-GTA-Consultants-December-2018.pdf, p.14)

For 2046, the model identified expected daily traffic volumes of 19,000 vehicles per day on the proposed western north-south arterial north of Camerons Lane, 21,700 vehicles per day on Patterson Road north of Camerons Lane, 23,000 vehicles per day on Camerons Lane west of the Hume Freeway, and 11,000 vehicles per day on Hadfield Road west of the Hume Freeway. (Source: Beveridge-North-West-PSP-Strategic-Transport-Modelling-Assessment-GTA-Consultants-December-2018.pdf, p.14)

The model concluded that the proposed arterial and connector roads perform at acceptable levels in 2046, but it also stated that detailed road-space management would need further investigation with agencies and stakeholders during design and delivery. (Source: Beveridge-North-West-PSP-Strategic-Transport-Modelling-Assessment-GTA-Consultants-December-2018.pdf, p.18)

The Panel accepted that the apportionment of Hadfield Road to the Wallan South PSP and Camerons Lane to Beveridge North West was a pragmatic and consistent boundary-road approach, while 50/50 apportionment of the two Hadfield Road intersections IN-08 and IN-09 between Beveridge North West and Wallan South was appropriate. (Source: Panel-Report-Mitchell-Planning-Scheme-Amendment-C106mith-Beveridge-North-West-PSP-Planning-Panels-Victoria-October-2020.pdf, pp.106-107)

The Panel did not find that a supplementary ICP levy was established at the time, but it said further VPA assessment would be needed once the Precinct Infrastructure Plan was completed to confirm that a supplementary levy would not be required. (Source: Panel-Report-Mitchell-Planning-Scheme-Amendment-C106mith-Beveridge-North-West-PSP-Planning-Panels-Victoria-October-2020.pdf, p.107)

Water, Sewer, Power and Utilities

The 2014 Cardno servicing assessment found that the precinct could be serviced, but only through extensive trunk infrastructure for sewer, water and electricity, with development limited to 500 lots in the short term. (Source: Beveridge-North-West-PSP-Utilities-Servicing-and-Infrastructure-Assessment-Cardno-March-2014.pdf, p.1)

Yarra Valley Water was identified as the responsible authority for sewerage, potable water and recycled water, and the servicing report stated that there were no current Yarra Valley Water sewerage or water assets within the precinct other than an existing 300 millimetre recycled water main in Camerons Lane. (Source: Beveridge-North-West-PSP-Utilities-Servicing-and-Infrastructure-Assessment-Cardno-March-2014.pdf, p.5)

For potable water, the Hazelwynde South Main was identified as a 375 millimetre distribution main of about 2,950 metres that would initially allow 500 lots, with further development requiring the Mandalay Internal Loop main and then broader Beveridge-Wallan water infrastructure beyond the 4,000-lot regional limit. (Source: Beveridge-North-West-PSP-Utilities-Servicing-and-Infrastructure-Assessment-Cardno-March-2014.pdf, pp.5-6)

For recycled water, the Hazelwynde South Main and Mandalay Internal Loop Main were also needed for initial supply, with development beyond 500 lots restricted to a 4,000-lot broader Beveridge-Wallan limit until additional internal and external recycled-water infrastructure was delivered. (Source: Beveridge-North-West-PSP-Utilities-Servicing-and-Infrastructure-Assessment-Cardno-March-2014.pdf, pp.6-7)

For sewer, the report identified a staged strategy: up to 500 lots could be accepted by Yarra Valley Water through eduction, development beyond 500 lots before 2021 would require a temporary sewer pump station and rising main, the temporary pump station would be sized for 3,000 lots at 120 litres per second, and full precinct servicing beyond 3,000 lots would require the ultimate Kalkallo Creek Main Sewer after 2026. (Source: Beveridge-North-West-PSP-Utilities-Servicing-and-Infrastructure-Assessment-Cardno-March-2014.pdf, pp.7-8)

For electricity, the report stated that further development would require at least two to four 22 kilovolt feeders from the Kalkallo zone substation, with each feeder typically serving 2,000 to 2,500 customers. (Source: Beveridge-North-West-PSP-Utilities-Servicing-and-Infrastructure-Assessment-Cardno-March-2014.pdf, p.9)

The utilities report also identified road-reserve design pressure: water distribution mains are non-tapping and can require extra reticulation mains, major roads can require up to six water mains for potable and recycled services, 22 kilovolt feeders may need additional width, and Camerons Lane needs detailed service coordination because it may carry sewer rising mains, branch sewers, water mains, high-voltage cables and gas mains while crossing stormwater culverts. (Source: Beveridge-North-West-PSP-Utilities-Servicing-and-Infrastructure-Assessment-Cardno-March-2014.pdf, pp.14-15)

The staging implication is simple: early development is most practical from the south where road and service extensions can connect, while development from the north is constrained by the lack of services, road access and the cost of bringing infrastructure forward. (Source: Beveridge-North-West-PSP-Utilities-Servicing-and-Infrastructure-Assessment-Cardno-March-2014.pdf, p.15)

Open Space, Drainage, Biodiversity and Bushfire

The PSP includes 23 credited local parks totalling 23.92 hectares and four sports reserves totalling 55.20 hectares, including SR-01 at 20.01 hectares, SR-02 at 13.34 hectares, SR-03 at 11.80 hectares and SR-04 at 10.05 hectares. (Source: Beveridge-North-West-Precinct-Structure-Plan-Victorian-Planning-Authority-November-2024.pdf, pp.23-24)

The water infrastructure table identifies seven major water assets: WI-01, a 13.30 hectare constructed waterway; WI-02, a 15.37 hectare retarding basin and wetland; WI-03, a 23.08 hectare constructed waterway; WI-04, a 67.44 hectare natural waterway along Kalkallo Creek; WI-05, a 5.73 hectare natural waterway; WI-06, a 0.60 hectare retarding basin and wetland; and WI-07, a 0.45 hectare retarding basin and wetland. (Source: Beveridge-North-West-Precinct-Structure-Plan-Victorian-Planning-Authority-November-2024.pdf, p.34)

The PSP requires waterway and drainage reserves shown in the plan and detailed in the Kalkallo Creek Development Services Scheme to be confirmed through functional and detailed design to the satisfaction of Melbourne Water. (Source: Beveridge-North-West-Precinct-Structure-Plan-Victorian-Planning-Authority-November-2024.pdf, p.33)

The Panel supported the VPA and Melbourne Water position that changes to drainage assets and waterway widths should be pursued through the Development Services Scheme process before being reflected in the PSP, rather than being determined unilaterally through the amendment panel. (Source: Panel-Report-Mitchell-Planning-Scheme-Amendment-C106mith-Beveridge-North-West-PSP-Planning-Panels-Victoria-October-2020.pdf, pp.90-91)

Hanna Swamp was a material unresolved environmental issue in the Panel process: the Panel described it as a large ephemeral wetland on the northern boundary of the PSP, said it was not clear why it had been overlooked, and recommended explicit recognition of the need to plan for Hanna Swamp in the revised PSP. (Source: Panel-Report-Mitchell-Planning-Scheme-Amendment-C106mith-Beveridge-North-West-PSP-Planning-Panels-Victoria-October-2020.pdf, pp.100-103)

Bushfire controls require vegetation management and setbacks for mapped bushfire hazard areas, with setback distances of 33 metres for Bushfire Hazard Area 1, 19 metres for Bushfire Hazard Area 2, and no setback for Bushfire Hazard Areas 3 and 4 or streetscapes. (Source: Beveridge-North-West-Precinct-Structure-Plan-Victorian-Planning-Authority-November-2024.pdf, p.27)

Schools, Community Facilities and Social Infrastructure

The PSP provides for four government primary schools of 3.5 hectares each, one government secondary school of 8.4 hectares, two non-government primary schools, one non-government secondary school, four multi-purpose community facilities and a local indoor recreation facility site. (Source: Beveridge-North-West-Precinct-Structure-Plan-Victorian-Planning-Authority-November-2024.pdf, pp.46-49)

The Southern Town Centre Flexible Design Area must provide 7 net developable hectares for the local town centre retail core, must not exceed 28 net developable hectares for mixed use unless varied by the responsible authority, must provide 8.4 hectares for a government secondary school, 3.5 hectares for a government primary school, 11.8 hectares for active open space and 2.0 hectares for a community facility. (Source: Beveridge-North-West-Precinct-Structure-Plan-Victorian-Planning-Authority-November-2024.pdf, p.18)

This design deliberately co-locates schools, active open space, community facilities and town-centre activity so that the southern precinct functions as a community hub rather than a separated sequence of single-purpose sites. (Source: Beveridge-North-West-Precinct-Structure-Plan-Victorian-Planning-Authority-November-2024.pdf, p.18)

Contested Issues and Amendment Pathway

The C106mith amendment attracted 34 submissions, including one late submission referred to Planning Panels Victoria, and the VPA grouped the issues into vision and general matters, image and housing, town centres, open space and education, biodiversity and bushfire, transport, integrated water management, infrastructure and staging, plus two cross-cutting issues: Work Authority 1473 and sodic/dispersive soils. (Source: Panel-Report-Mitchell-Planning-Scheme-Amendment-C106mith-Beveridge-North-West-PSP-Planning-Panels-Victoria-October-2020.pdf, pp.5-6)

The submission summary shows agency and community concerns about congestion on Mickleham Road, the need for the Outer Metropolitan Ring Road and Hume Freeway upgrades, Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung requests for targeted cultural-values inspection, Department of Transport subdivision triggers linked to the 1,100th lot across Lockerbie North, Beveridge North West and Beveridge Central, CFA requirements for bushfire mapping and a future CFA facility, and Friends of Merri Creek concerns about Hanna Swamp. (Source: VPA-submission-summary-Beveridge-North-West-PSP-Amendment-C106mith-26-June-2020.pdf)

The most consequential panel issue was the quarry: the Panel found strong policy support for urban development but concluded that the exhibited amendment did not adequately consider extraction of the identified stone resource at Work Authority 1473. (Source: Panel-Report-Mitchell-Planning-Scheme-Amendment-C106mith-Beveridge-North-West-PSP-Planning-Panels-Victoria-October-2020.pdf, pp.ii-iii)

The Panel did not recommend abandoning the amendment; instead it recommended revising Amendment C106mith to explicitly include precinct-level planning for resource extraction from Work Authority 1473 while also recognising that most of the PSP had strong policy support and considerable merit. (Source: Panel-Report-Mitchell-Planning-Scheme-Amendment-C106mith-Beveridge-North-West-PSP-Planning-Panels-Victoria-October-2020.pdf, p.22)

The later project status shows the final statutory pathway separated the PSP, ICP and quarry into Amendment C158mith, Amendment C161mith and Amendment C175mith, each gazetted on 5 August 2025, which indicates that the quarry question was not ignored but resolved through a separate amendment pathway alongside the final PSP and ICP approvals. (Source: web-research-L1-beveridge-north-west-project-page-vpa.txt)

Current Status

The PSP is approved and gazetted through Amendment C158mith, the Infrastructure Contributions Plan is approved and gazetted through Amendment C161mith, and the related quarry amendment is approved and gazetted through Amendment C175mith, with all three gazettals recorded by the VPA as occurring on 5 August 2025. (Source: web-research-L1-beveridge-north-west-project-page-vpa.txt)

The current planning task is therefore implementation rather than exhibition: permit decisions, subdivision staging, ICP collection or works-in-kind, utility sequencing, waterway functional design, road delivery and agency coordination now determine the timing and form of development. (Source: Beveridge-North-West-Precinct-Structure-Plan-Victorian-Planning-Authority-November-2024.pdf, pp.38-49)

Dependencies

  • Blocks: The PSP blocks ad hoc urban subdivision that does not provide the required arterial road reservations, connector streets, path links, land for community infrastructure, sports reserves, local open space, trunk service extensions and north-south arterial connections between Camerons Lane and Hadfield Road where practicable. (Source: Beveridge-North-West-Precinct-Structure-Plan-Victorian-Planning-Authority-November-2024.pdf, p.38)
  • Blocked by: Development beyond early stages is constrained by Yarra Valley Water potable, recycled-water and sewer infrastructure, including the initial 500-lot servicing limit, the 3,000-lot interim sewer limit and the need for ultimate sewer infrastructure. (Source: Beveridge-North-West-PSP-Utilities-Servicing-and-Infrastructure-Assessment-Cardno-March-2014.pdf, pp.5-8)
  • Blocked by: Transport capacity depends on staged upgrades to Camerons Lane, Patterson Road or Eastern Arterial links, Western Arterial links, Hadfield Road intersections and the Camerons Lane Interchange. (Source: Beveridge-North-West-Precinct-Structure-Plan-Victorian-Planning-Authority-November-2024.pdf, pp.43-49)
  • Informed by: The PSP was informed by the PSP Background Report, the Infrastructure Contributions Plan, transport modelling, utilities servicing assessment, drainage and waterway work, biodiversity and bushfire inputs, and the C106mith Panel process. (Source: Beveridge-North-West-Precinct-Structure-Plan-Victorian-Planning-Authority-November-2024.pdf, pp.2-4; Source: Panel-Report-Mitchell-Planning-Scheme-Amendment-C106mith-Beveridge-North-West-PSP-Planning-Panels-Victoria-October-2020.pdf, pp.5-6)
  • Implements: The PSP implements growth-area planning for the Northern Growth Corridor under the Growth Corridor Plans, Plan Melbourne, Plan for Victoria, Victoria’s Housing Statement and the Mitchell Planning Scheme framework. (Source: Beveridge-North-West-Precinct-Structure-Plan-Victorian-Planning-Authority-November-2024.pdf, p.2)
  • Conflicts with: The main historical conflict was between urban development timing and the Work Authority 1473 stone resource, which the Panel considered significant enough to require precinct-level quarry planning rather than simple sterilisation of the resource. (Source: Panel-Report-Mitchell-Planning-Scheme-Amendment-C106mith-Beveridge-North-West-PSP-Planning-Panels-Victoria-October-2020.pdf, pp.ii-iii)

Beveridge North West is physically and functionally linked to Wallan South PSP through Hadfield Road, shared intersection apportionment and Hanna Swamp planning issues. (Source: Panel-Report-Mitchell-Planning-Scheme-Amendment-C106mith-Beveridge-North-West-PSP-Planning-Panels-Victoria-October-2020.pdf, pp.100-107)

The precinct is linked to Beveridge Central PSP and Lockerbie North PSP through sewer and transport triggers, including the Department of Transport submission concerning subdivision triggers across Lockerbie North, Beveridge North West and Beveridge Central, and through Yarra Valley Water’s sewer, water and recycled-water servicing strategies for the broader North Growth Corridor. (Source: VPA-submission-summary-Beveridge-North-West-PSP-Amendment-C106mith-26-June-2020.pdf; Source: Beveridge-North-West-PSP-Utilities-Servicing-and-Infrastructure-Assessment-Cardno-March-2014.pdf, pp.5-8)

The transport model ties the precinct to the Hume Freeway, the Outer Metropolitan Ring Road, the Northern Growth Corridor East and the broader metropolitan labour market because 65 percent of 2046 daily car trips are forecast to travel to or from the south. (Source: Beveridge-North-West-PSP-Strategic-Transport-Modelling-Assessment-GTA-Consultants-December-2018.pdf, pp.12-18)

The precinct is also linked to Melbourne Water through the Kalkallo Creek Development Services Scheme and to Yarra Valley Water through staged regional water and sewer assets that serve multiple PSP areas rather than Beveridge North West alone. (Source: Beveridge-North-West-Precinct-Structure-Plan-Victorian-Planning-Authority-November-2024.pdf, p.33; Source: Beveridge-North-West-PSP-Utilities-Servicing-and-Infrastructure-Assessment-Cardno-March-2014.pdf, pp.5-8)

Gaps in This Analysis

The manifest includes the VPA project page, final PSP, transport modelling, utilities servicing assessment, submission summary and Panel report, but it does not include the extracted text of the final Beveridge North West Infrastructure Contributions Plan itself, so this page cannot verify final ICP levy rates, land equalisation amounts, project cost totals or per-hectare contribution rates from the ICP document. (Source: web-research-L1-beveridge-north-west-project-page-vpa.txt)

The manifest does not include full extracted drainage, biodiversity, cultural heritage, quarry, sodic soils, bushfire, open space, community infrastructure, land valuation or final amendment ordinance documents, so this page identifies those themes from the PSP, Panel report and available technical documents but cannot quantify every parcel-level impact or final statutory control. (Source: Panel-Report-Mitchell-Planning-Scheme-Amendment-C106mith-Beveridge-North-West-PSP-Planning-Panels-Victoria-October-2020.pdf, pp.5-6)

The submission-summary files in the manifest appear duplicated, and the panel-report files also appear duplicated, so the independent source base is narrower than the eight manifest IDs suggest. (Source: VPA-submission-summary-Beveridge-North-West-PSP-Amendment-C106mith-26-June-2020.pdf; Source: Panel-Report-Mitchell-Planning-Scheme-Amendment-C106mith-Beveridge-North-West-PSP-Planning-Panels-Victoria-October-2020.pdf)

Gap reconciliation: the Beveridge North West ICP is no longer treated as missing where beveridge-north-west-infrastructure-contributions-plan is present. Remaining gaps concern latest operative controls, delivery status and agency implementation evidence.
