Environment and Food Production Areas Review mapping variations now operational

Published Friday, 28 October 2022

Following the State Planning Commission’s (the Commission) inaugural 5-yearly review of South Australia’s Environment and Food Production Areas (EFPA), adjustments to the EFPA mapping are operational as of Thursday 27 October 2022.

As part of the review, the Commission endorsed 23 minor variations and/or technical corrections to boundaries, which have been highlighted in the EFPA Review 2021 Outcomes Report (PDF, 3737 KB).

Following completion of the review process, the Minister for Planning tabled the Commission’s Government Gazette Notice and Outcomes Report before both Houses of Parliament in accordance with the relevant legislative step to enable a 14-sitting day period for consideration.

The Parliamentary consideration period recently concluded, with no motion to disallow the variations. This now means the endorsed mapping variations have been brought into effect via publication of a notice on the SA planning portal.

You can also view the updated EFPA Overlay mapping within the Planning and Design Code which is selectable on the South Australian Property and Planning Atlas (SAPPA) mapping system.

The next 5-yearly Review of the EFPA is due in 2027.
