West Perth facelift canned by DAVID BELL THE West Perth regeneration plan has been abandoned for now. The masterplan was intended to “revitalise the light and service industrial area of West Perth” by turning it into a “high density mixed use area” a Vincent council report says. But on Tuesday night the council decided to abandon it, most likely leaving it on the shelf until the Leederville, Claisebrook and North Perth masterplans are complete. If mayor Alannah MacTiernan’s predictions are right the West Perth plan could be mothballed permanently: She recently warned colleagues that Vincent would cease to exist within a year, likely to be re-merged with Perth or possibly Stirling. The regeneration masterplan would have covered the area between Loftus, Newcastle and Charles Streets and the Graham Farmer Freeway, as well as north of Newcastle Street. The council will also save between $200,000 and $250,000 by shelving a study of the project. The council report refers to the Leederville, Claisebrook and North Perth masterplans as “priority projects,” and says staff will not be able to allocate enough resources” to West Perth. Cr Matt Buckels was a bit cut up, saying he was most excited about the West Perth regeneration.
