Planning design Forum daily wrap 16 March

On day four of the Planning Design Forum, the team continued to investigate ideas for the future of the South Perth Station Precinct and the wider peninsula area. A number of meetings were held with team members and City staff to discuss issues including place identity and branding, options for upgrading the Mends Street streetscape, potential mechanisms for funding construction of the train station and strategies to address issues in the current Town Planning Scheme.

The design team also continued to illustrate potential development scenarios including a 3D illustration of two iconic towers above a potential train station.

On Thursday evening the City's Councillors were invited to a special briefing on the process and work to date. Councillors were briefed on the process so far and given a summary of the ideas and issues raised by the community and stakeholders through the Forum along with the responses that the team is investigating. The Councillors themselves raised a number of further questions and considerations that will be incorporated into the team's recommendations.

All community members are invited to view the work in progress from the Forum at the last of the public exhibitions from 5pm on Friday 17 March 2017 at South Perth Community Hall, Cnr Sandgate St & South Tce, South Perth. To register your interest to attend the exhibition, visit Your Say South Perth.
