The Metropolitan Planning Authority (MPA), in consultation with the Casey City Council and government agencies, has prepared the McPherson Precinct Structure Plan (PSP) to guide development of a new residential community in Clyde and Clyde North. The McPherson PSP covers an area of approximately 952 hectares and is bounded by Cardinia Creek to the north and east, Ballarto Road to the south, Smiths Lane and the future Bells Road to the west, and Muddy Gates Lane, and McCormacks Road to the east. This precinct will ultimately support a residential community of approximately 28,300 people and deliver more than 1,600 local jobs. The future community will benefit from commercial and retail services to be provided within two local town centres and one local convenience centre distributed across the precinct. The McPherson PSP includes significant open space corridors along both Cardinia and Clyde Creeks and the future provision of a regional park. The future urban structure plan overleaf provides more details on the proposed land uses and transport connections. The State Government is modernising the collection of financial contributions towards essential development and community infrastructure from the current system known as Development Contributions Plans (DCP) to the new standardised system known as Infrastructure Contributions Plans (ICP). Information relating to the new system and the range of projects included in the plan is contained in the attachment to this newsletter. The McPherson PSP will guide future land use and enable urban development to commence in the eastern areas of Clyde.
