The area around and within the Moorabbin shopping centre and train station has been recently rezoned to the Activity Centre Zone.

The rezoning follows extensive strategic work undertaken by Kingston City Council over several years. The new zone is expected to facilitate increased housing and retail opportunities with the area and will unlock 8 hectares of land for redevelopment. It is anticipated that approximately 1800 new homes will be built within the Moorabbin Activity Centre Zone over the next 16 years.
Kingston City Council is planning/implementing a number of upgrades to the Moorabbin Activity Centre including changing traffic flow, improvements to the train station, better pedestrian movement and connection to the activity centre, the train station and the nearby Moorabbin Reserve. These improvements to the area will support the expected growth of the centre over the long term.
There have already been several large scale developments approved that provide both commercial and residential uses.
Kingston City Council’s Framework Plan for the Moorabbin Activity Centre
The Moorabbin Activity Centre Zone divides the area into five precincts (as shown in the above plan). The allowed uses within each precinct are specified as well as any uses that are prohibited within a precinct. The preferred height limits, building setback requirements and development guidelines for each precinct are detailed within the planning scheme.
If you own land within the Moorabbin Activity Centre Zone the recent rezoning may influence how your land can be used or developed in the future.
