Special infrastructure contributions

A special infrastructure contribution (SIC) was proposed to help fund new or upgraded infrastructure planned for the Wilton Growth Area.

Infrastructure funding for the Wilton Growth Area will now be provided by the Housing and Productivity Contribution (HPC), which replaced the draft SIC scheme on 1 October 2023.

The HPC applies to development applications for new residential, commercial and industrial development (including complying development and state significant development) in the Greater Sydney, Lower Hunter, Central Coast and Illawarra-Shoalhaven regions.

Funds collected under the system help to deliver essential infrastructure such as schools, hospitals, major roads, public transport infrastructure, and regional open spaces to help create vibrant, liveable communities.

The HPC will help fund:

  • roads, intersections, bridges and cycleways
  • biodiversity conservation and regional open space
  • schools
  • bus infrastructure
  • health facilities
  • emergency services.
