Mitchell Shire Council has prepared a Draft Neighbourhood Charactecomr Study for Broadford. This has been informed by using the feedback from the stage one consultation that concluded in September 2023.

About the Character Study

The Broadford Neighbourhood Character Study (NCS) looks at all residential zoned areas of Broadford, and aims to guide new development, making sure it fits in the area’s existing or preferred character. Using planning rules set by the State Government, site visits and background analysis, we have identified six Neighbourhood Character Areas in Broadford. These have been further broken down into eight precincts to more accurately describe the character of each area.

We want to understand what is important to you about your neighbourhood and if we have got it right. You can get involved by reading the Draft NCS here and sharing your thoughts by lodging a submission below.

Wondering how this draft study will impact you? Search your property address in the 'find your precinct' interactive map and read the corresponding Preferred Character Area Precinct sheet.
