These are the planning scheme’s official terms. A close match tells you the rule for that term; whether your project counts as that term is a judgement call.

  • To provide a range of office and light industrial uses.
  • To encourage employment opportunities.
  • To enable other land uses that provide facilities or services to meet the day to day needs of workers in the area.

Some state-level housing and precinct policies sit above council rules and can override them — those aren’t included here.

A council’s LEP can also grant extra permitted uses of its own on top of the standard list — those aren’t included here either.

Frequently asked questions

Does this SP4 Enterprise table apply to my property in Penrith?

Only if this zone and this planning scheme apply to the land. Search your address — that is what names both.

Can I assume my project is one of the terms listed for SP4 Enterprise?

No. The list uses the planning scheme’s official names. Whether your project counts as one of those names is a judgement call — that’s what a planner is for.

If a use is not listed in SP4 Enterprise, is it prohibited in Penrith?

Not by itself. Unlisted uses follow this zone’s fallback (“Prohibited”). That is different from being named on the list.

General guidance only — not planning advice. This is the land use table from Penrith Local Environmental Plan 2010, sourced 19 August 2026. It does not decide what your project is, and overlays can still change what you need to apply for.
