Introduction THE INVENTORY The Metropolitan Redevelopment Authority (the MRA) is responsible for the urban renewal of the Central Perth Redevelopment Area (the Redevelopment Area) and proposes to recognise and afford protective measures to those places that have cultural heritage significance. The Central Perth Redevelopment Scheme (the Scheme) empowers the MRA to compile and maintain a list of Heritage Places and Precincts, called a Heritage Inventory (HI). The Central Perth HI has been developed in accordance with the provisions of the Heritage of Western Australia Act 1990, which requires all Local Governments to compile an inventory of heritage places as the foundation of sound local heritage planning. As MRA assumes responsibility as the planning authority within the Redevelopment Area, the MRA is acknowledging its role and responsibilities in “recognising, promoting and protecting” the cultural heritage that falls under its jurisdiction, as articulated in the State Cultural Heritage Policy.

  • Capital City Planning Framework
    This section sets out the key spatial proposals 5 of the Capital City Planning Framework. These are the elements that set the overarching future Physical framework direction for the next generation of city building, to contribute to the growing and changing functions, activities and community in central Perth. It presents central Perth’s evolution in a longer-term vision. These elements are derived from an application of the underlying principles identified in Section 4 to the existing fabric of central Perth, outlined in Section 2. The propositions of the physical framework fall into four main parts: • Setting describes a proposal for the city’s green infrastructure, including its parklands and urban tree canopy, enhancing the contribution to our social and economic wellbeing and Perth’s sense of place. • Activity and Built Form focuses on land use in response to growth in population and the activity, sustainability, and design quality within the future of central Perth. • Movement sets out the vision for the networks for moving in and around central Perth. • Spatial Form amalgamates elements from the previous three sections to spatially envisage a future form of central Perth. As statements of the State Government’s broad strategic directions for central Perth, the propositions outlined are generally of a higher order or conceptual nature. It is intended that greater detail for these concepts will be developed over time, in the context of continued community dialogue and changing circumstances. Capital City Planning Framework Perth 37 5.1 5.1.1 Key concept 1: A city with a these two advantages can help to transform contemporary challenges into opportunities, and Setting reconceived setting will ensure that Perth continues to enjoy the beneficial legacies of its rich environment and The City’s extraordinary setting – the relationship cultural heritage.
