Local Planning Policy No. 50 - Fast Food Outlets and Drive Through Premises

Local Planning Policy No. 50 – Fast Food Outlets and Drive Through Premises (LPP50)


It’s important to us that new developments in Mosman Park are well designed, appropriately located, and considerate of the surrounding neighbourhood.


That’s why we’re seeking community feedback on a new Local Planning Policy to guide where fast food outlets and drive-through premises can be located in Mosman Park and how they should be designed.


Mosman Park is changing, with more housing and development planned around key areas including the Town Centre, Stirling Highway and Mosman Park Train Station.


Why is this policy being introduced?

As the Town grows, LPP50 will help guide how fast food outlets and drive-throughs fit into these areas, supporting attractive, walkable neighbourhoods and protecting local amenity.


The policy also supports the Town’s Public Health and Wellbeing Plan 2026-2031, adopted in September, by ensuring potential impacts on neighbourhood amenity and community wellbeing are considered from the outset when planning for these developments.


The proposed policy seeks to:

  • Encourage fast food outlets to be integrated into mixed-use developments, particularly in areas planned for greater housing and activity.
  • Guide the location and design of stand-alone outlets and drive-throughs, particularly where they may affect the use and character of key areas.
  • Support high-quality design, landscaping, and streetscapes.
  • Create safer and more attractive environments for pedestrians and cyclists.
  • Manage traffic, parking, drive-through queues, noise, lighting, waste, and other potential impacts.
  • Support the Town’s broader public health and wellbeing objectives.


What does the policy cover?

LPP50 provides guidance on the location, design, and operation of Fast Food Outlets and Drive Through Premises, including built form, vehicle access, parking, landscaping, pedestrian movement and impacts on surrounding properties.


The policy does not prohibit fast food outlets or drive-through premises. Instead, it provides clear expectations to ensure future proposals are appropriately located and designed for the Mosman Park of the future.


Have Your Say

Do you support the proposed approach? Is there anything you think should be changed or considered before the policy is finalised?
