The Tasmanian Planning Scheme consists of:
- a set of Statewide Planning rules called the State Planning Provisions (SPPs) – (administrative provisions, provisions for zones, codes, etc.); and
- A Local Provisions Schedule (LPS) which contains the zone, code and overlay maps that apply the State Planning Provisions to each local council area.
The Tasmanian Planning Scheme as it applies to the Kentish local government area (including zone and overlay maps) can be accessed and viewed via the Tasmanian Planning Commission’s website at:
