Email MPs: Parliament Can Still Stop Hampton's Activity Centre
Act before Wednesday 3 June 2026. Parliament can still stop planning changes that would allow apartment developments of up to six storeys across large parts of Hampton without the normal rights of residents and Council to object.
While public attention has focused on the proposed 12 to 16 storey buildings in the Hampton Street core, the changes extend much further. Large residential areas within an arbitrary "walkable catchment" of Hampton Street would be subject to apartment developments of up to six storeys, with significantly reduced notice, objection and review rights.
HNA supports more housing, but it must be delivered with appropriate infrastructure, genuine community consultation, independent scrutiny and meaningful local input. The current planning changes fail to achieve that balance.
A disallowance motion before Parliament provides one final opportunity to overturn these changes, including both the proposed 12–16 storey developments in the Hampton Street core and the broader planning controls affecting surrounding residential neighbourhoods.
For more background, see the Liveable Victoria disallowance explainer.
The planning changes affect communities across Victoria, not just Hampton and Bayside.
