The City is seeking feedback on draft modified local planning policy P350.03- Setback of garages and carports, garage width, design of car parking spaces and vehicle access’.
Policy P350.03 provides the criteria for the design of car parking spaces and structures for residential development. The existing policy has been reviewed to align with the Residential Design Codes, the City’s Town Planning Scheme No. 6 and to provide modified criteria for the assessment of applications involving the use of car-stacking equipment for vehicle parking.
The key modification made to the policy is to ensure that a minimum proportion of vehicle bays on a site are provided free of the assistance and/or reliance on mechanical car-stacking equipment at any time. This is to afford future residents the ability to choose between mechanically stacked car bays or typical hard-stand bays.
A significant number of modifications have been made to the policy to ensure alignment with the Residential Design Codes (R-Codes); particularly in regards to the setting back of car parking structures. A number of criteria have been deleted from P350.03 (or augmented into new criteria) because they conflict with the R-Codes.
How can I give my feedback?
Comments should be submitted one of the following ways:
By mail, addressed to the Chief Executive Officer, City of South Perth Cnr Sandgate St & South Tce, South Perth WA 6151.
Feedback period closes 4pm, Wednesday 6 February 2019.
What next?
Following the feedback period, the City will review and consider all submissions made on the draft modified policy. Your feedback may result in modifications to the policy prior to any final consideration. The draft modified policy will then be presented back to Council for final adoption.
