Since 2017, Council has been engaged in a conversation with the Glen Eira community to develop long-term plans (Structure Plans) for Glen Eira's activity centres. Structure plans are important ways to plan for, and shape, future growth and change. Through structure plans, Council can balance planning for future jobs and housing growth, while ensuring Glen Eira continues to be a great place to live and work.
To read more about these Plans, see the FAQ to the right on this page.
After an extensive process of engagement with the community, a Structure Plan for Carnegie was adopted in December 2018, setting a new policy direction and 15-year vision for Carnegie:
Carnegie will be a safe, connected and welcoming centre that embraces its authentic urban character and cultural identity. The centre will be a destination for entertainment, shopping and employment, supporting a range of businesses and interconnected community spaces that meet the needs of the local community.
Following adoption, Council has been working to implement the objectives of the Plan, including through making changes to the Glen Eira Planning Scheme.
A Planning Scheme Amendment (Amendment C184) was prepared to input land use and development components of the Carnegie and Bentleigh Structure Plans into the Glen Eira Planning Scheme. Amendment C184 was exhibited to the community between July and August 2020. At an Ordinary Council Meeting on Tuesday 16 March 2021, Council considered these submissions and resolved not to proceed further with Planning Scheme Amendment C184. Read more about this here.
Council will now reset the process and begin development of separate amendment processes for the two centres — with separate commercial and residential components.
