Closed consultations

Draft Local Planning Policy 42 - Vehicular Access for Residential Development has been prepared to restrict the number of vehicle crossovers to a development site to maximise opportunities for on-street parking and to protect street trees.

In March 2020, community consultation revealed that community priorities for the project should be to create a streetscape that improves walk ability and vibrancy around local businesses while improving shading and tree canopy coverage wherever possible. We have developed a draft design to address these priorities while improving safety and accessibility for all users of the street.

The Place Plans are the culmination of a review and analysis of the Town’s informing strategies and plans; a review of relevant data sets; and a current understanding of best practice.

The Town has conducted a review and update of the Local Heritage Survey. The Local Heritage Survey (previously known as the Municipal Heritage Inventory) was prepared in 2000 and is a guiding document outlining the heritage value of various historic buildings throughout the Town. The Local Heritage Survey does not form part of the Town Planning scheme, however it provides a thematic framework that has identified places of historical and cultural significance.

The current name Right of Way 52 doesn’t reflect the new look. We’re asking you to help us rename it.

The Town is considering an amendment to Town Planning Scheme No. 1 to rezone No. 4-6 (Lots 5 and 6) Temple Street, Victoria Park from ‘Public Purpose – Civic Use’ Reserve to ‘Residential R60’.
