Amendment No. 56 – Civic Site
The City seeks public comments on draft Scheme Amendment No. 56 to Town Planning Scheme No. 6, relating to the land identified as the ‘Civic Site’ being that bound by Mill Point Road, Mends Street and Labouchere Road.
The amendment seeks to apply a Special Control Area to facilitate and control the re-development of the Civic Site. The Special Control Area is proposed to apply only to the Civic Site, in acknowledgement of the site’s unique characteristics and the City’s desire to promote a landmark mixed used development at the heart of the South Perth Station Precinct.
The draft amendment introduces new provisions into Town Planning Scheme No. 6 which, amongst other things, control the sites development in terms of tower height, scale of podiums, land use, vehicle and bicycle parking and traffic management, the pedestrian environment, heritage protection, design quality, public and occupier benefit.
Amendment No. 56 is now available for comment. The feedback period will close at 5pm, Tuesday 16 January 2018.
Your submission should include:
- comments either supporting or opposing the proposals, or suggesting particular ways in which you believe that the draft Amendment should be modified;
- your name and postal address, to enable the City to respond to your submission and update you periodically on the progress of the Amendment; and
- the address of any other property owned by you which is affected by the proposal.
