City of Hobart Planning Scheme

The text version of the City of Hobart Planning Scheme (Resource 3) does not include the Heritage Maps (Resource 4) and Schedule P (Resource 5) which are available as separate documents.

A User Guide to the City of Hobart Planning Scheme 1982 (Resource 1) is available for reference.

The Tasmanian Planning Commission has introduced a Planning Directive (PD4) (Resource 6), which came into effect on 29 August 2011, modified on 22 February 2012.  PD4 contains standards for single dwellings in residential zones, and overrides some provisions of the City of Hobart Planning Scheme 1982.  The standards apply to development in the Residential 1, 2, 3 and 4 zones.  If you require any further information, please contact a Development Appraisal Planner on 62382715.

The planning scheme is made up of a number of zones. To see which zones apply for the CHPS select an area on the map below.
