Milperra

Mirvac, in partnership with Western Sydney University (WSU), is proposing to create a well-connected, low-rise master planned community on a 19.6-hectare site formally known as ‘WSU Bankstown Village Campus’. Following the relocation of the Campus into its new highly accessible, vertical campus in the Bankstown CBD, the masterplan proposes to renew the site through the delivery of a diverse range of low-rise dwellings alongside community enhancements set to benefit both existing and future residents.

In line with this vision, Mirvac lodged a Planning Proposal in 2020 seeking to rezone the site to permit residential, commercial, recreational and conservation uses which has recently been gazetted in June 2024.

In addition, in October 2023, Canterbury-Bankstown Council (Council) endorsed the adoption of the sitespecific Development Control Plan (DCP) and execution of the Voluntary Planning Agreement (VPA). This sets out the community benefits and contributions the project will deliver, which can be viewed here.

Next steps involve lodging a series of Development Applications (DAs), consistent with the Planning Proposal, for assessment by Council.

The proposal is consistent with the NSW government’s focus on delivering a diverse range of much-needed housing to meet the needs of emerging communities across the Canterbury Bankstown local government area and beyond.

  1. WSU announced plans to relocate the Milperra campus to a new highly accessible, vertical campus to be built in Bankstown CBD. This is in line with WSU Western Growth strategy to revitalise campuses between peri-urban and CBD locations to facilitate high amenity, well-located learning environments.

  2. Mirvac and WSU entered a Project Development Agreement (PDA) to develop a concept scheme to re-zone WSU Milperra Campus.

  3. Early community and stakeholder engagement to help inform planning for the project.

  4. Mirvac lodged Planning Proposal for the site at 2 and 2A Bullecourt Avenue, Milperra. During the assessment phase, the Planning Proposal, Development Control Plan and Voluntary Planning Agreement were publicly exhibited.

  5. Planning Panel unanimously recommended that the Planning Proposal proceeds through the finalisation process.

  6. Council endorsed the adoption of the site‑specific Development Control Plan (DCP) and execution of the Voluntary Planning Agreement (VPA).

  7. Development Application (DA) for demolition of the existing buildings (with the exception of the child care centre) lodged with Canterbury-Bankstown Council.
