Mayor of Penrith Ross Fowler said the project will be an important addition to the region.

“A key feature of the plan is the inclusion of a new Town Centre, industrial research and development facilities, a school and a retail centre, all providing new employment opportunities in this area of Western Sydney,” Mayor Fowler said.

The proposal will be on public exhibition with the community invited to provide feedback on the project.
