A debate on more than 100 amendments to a planning bill in the Legislative Assembly before the community has had a chance to see the proposed changes is "bizarre" given the government's previous focus on consultation, a community council has said.

Planning Minister Mick Gentlemen circulated 106 amendments to the bill last week, with another 19 amendments to be moved by the Greens.
