The Voluntary Planning Agreement (VPA) for 3-7 Lyons Street and 18 Parnell Street, Strathfield (Lots 2, 3, 4 and 5 in DP17433), has been submitted with Development Application DA.2023.45 which proposes alterations and additions to a mixed use development approved under DA2021.79.

Changes are also proposed for Basement Level 3 to accommodate an additional nine (9) car parking spaces and one (1) motorcycle space.
