The NSW government will accelerate planning approvals for the state’s $5 billion pipeline of data centres and boost the number of planning officers to manage demand for the next two years.
The threshold for data centres and warehouses to become subject to State Significant Development (SSD) planning regulations will be lowered from $50 million to $30 million until May 2023.
Planning minister Rob Stokes says the move will help stimulate the State’s post-pandemic economic recovery.
