Metropolitan Planning Levy

What is Metropolitan Planning Levy?

Metropolitan Planning Levy (MPL) is a crucial financial tool employed in urban areas to support and fund the complex urban planning processes.

In the context of Australia’s bustling metropolitans, it aids in ensuring that these cities remain sustainable, liveable, and primed for future growth. The MPL isn’t just another tax; it’s a commitment towards maintaining the vibrancy and dynamism of Australia’s urban centres. From public infrastructures to park spaces, every levy collected gets channelled towards crafting a better urban future.

Why Is Metropolitan Planning Levy Essential for Your City?

Urban planning, especially in fast-growing metropolitan areas, is not just about immediate needs but foresight and longevity. The MPL is instrumental for several reasons:

  • Sustainable Development: The MPL finances measures that promote eco-friendly and sustainable urban growth, ensuring that our cities remain green and breathable.
  • Infrastructure Maintenance: Be it upgrading public transportation, repairing ageing infrastructures, or integrating smart city features, the MPL ensures cities stay up-to-date and functional.

  • Aesthetic Enhancement: The levy contributes to beautifying our cities with parks, recreational spaces, and other amenities that improve the quality of life for its residents.
  • Economic Vibrancy: Proper planning attracts businesses. With better infrastructure and amenities, cities can draw in more investments, promoting job growth and economic prosperity.
  • Safety and Compliance: MPL ensures that the urban development meets the stringent safety regulations and standards, safeguarding the well-being of its citizens.
