Introduction to Metropolitan Region Scheme minor amendments The Western Australian Planning Commission (WAPC) is responsible for keeping the Metropolitan Region Scheme under review and initiating changes where they are seen as necessary. The Metropolitan Region Scheme (MRS) sets out the broad pattern of land use for the whole Perth metropolitan region. The MRS is constantly under review to best reflect regional planning and development needs. An amendment proposal to change land use reservations and zones in the MRS is regulated by the Planning and Development Act 2005. That legislation provides for public submissions to be made on proposed amendments. For a non-substantial amendment, often referred to as a minor amendment (made under section 57 of the Act), the WAPC considers all the submissions lodged, and publishes its recommendations in a report on submissions. This report is presented to the Minister for Planning for approval. The amendment takes legal effect with Gazettal of the Minister’s approval. In the process of making a non-substantial amendment to the MRS, information is published as a public record under the following titles: Amendment Report This document is available from the start of the public advertising period of the proposed amendment. It sets out the purpose and scope of the proposal, explains why the amendment is considered necessary, and informs people how they can comment through the submission process. Environmental Review Report The Environmental Protection Authority must consider the environmental impact of an amendment to the MRS before it can be advertised. While formal assessment would be unlikely for a non-substantial amendment, were it required then an environmental review would be undertaken and made available for information and comment at the same time as the amendment report. Report on Submissions The planning rationale, determination of submissions and the WAPC’s recommendations for final approval of the amendment, with or without modification, is documented in this report. Submissions This document contains a reproduction of all written submissions received by the WAPC on the proposed amendment.

The amendment was initiated as a minor amendment to the MRS as the proposal was considered to be relatively minor in nature. The reasons for that decision are included in the previously published Amendment Report for this amendment. 2 The proposed amendment Purpose The amendment was described in the previously published Amendment Report and a description of the amendment and the proposals within is repeated below. The purpose of the amendment is to update various zones and reservations in the Central Districts of the MRS at the request of the City of Canning. The 19 Proposals within the amendment include small-scale amendments to the region scheme which do not warrant consideration as individual amendments, the rationalisation of zones and reservations to match cadastral boundaries, updates to reflect infrastructure as constructed, and other general updates to ensure the MRS is kept up-to-date as the statutory regional plan for Perth. City of Canning Proposal 1 Tomah Road: To rezone a portion of Lot 700 (No. 528) Abernethy Road, Kewdale from Industrial to Railways (Figure 1). The site is currently used as a storage area for heavy rail and associated equipment. Based on the use of the land, it is considered that a classification of Railways is more appropriate than the current zoning of Industrial. Proposal 2 Welshpool Road and Gibbs Street: To transfer portions of Welshpool Road and Gibbs Street from Parks and Recreation to Urban and associated removal of Bush forever site 283 (Figure 2). To match the future intended use of the land for Other Regional Roads (ORR) purposes. 1 Proposal 3 Hamilton Street and Welshpool Road: To transfer a portion of Hamilton Street from ORR to Urban (Figure 3). To provide a consistent ORR reservation at intersections along Welshpool Road. Collie Street, Dowd Street and Kewdale Road: To transfer a portion of Collie Street and both sides of Dowd Street where it intersects with Welshpool Road from Industrial to ORR (Figure 3). To provide a consistent ORR reservation at intersections along Kewdale Road. Proposal 4 Orrong Road: To rezone a portion of Orrong Road from Industrial to Primary Regional Roads (PRR) (Figure 4). To appropriately reflect the existing use of the land with the remainder of Orrong Road as a PRR. Radium Street North and Welshpool Road: To transfer a portion of Radium Street North from Industrial to ORR (Figure 4). To provide a consistent ORR reservation at intersections along Welshpool Road. Proposal 5 Fitzroy Street, Renou Street, Gerard Street and Railway Parade: To rezone the subject area from Urban to Central City Area (Figure 5). To align the MRS boundary of Central City Area to the Canning City Centre Activity Centre Plan boundary for consistency. The boundary of the Activity Centre Plan also matches the boundary of the Centre zone in the City of Canning Local Planning Scheme No. 40 (LPS 40). Seven Oaks Street, Grey Street, Bent Street and Station Street: To rezone the subject area from Central City Area to Urban (Figure 5). To match the change in the boundary of the Canning City Centre Activity Centre Plan and the extent of the Centre zone in the City of Canning LPS 40. Proposal 6 Lot 99 Mills Street and Portion of Mills Street: To rezone from Public Purposes – Hospital to Urban (Figure 6). This section of land forms part of a linear park. The remainder of the linear park is reserved as Public Open Space (POS) under the City of Canning LPS 40. It is considered appropriate that this section of land that forms part of the linear POS is reclassified to Urban under the MRS. Hamilton Street and Armadale Rail Line: To transfer a portion of the rail reservation at Hamilton Street from Railways to ORR (Figure 6). 2 To provide consistency with other rail crossings where the ORR or PRR sit over the Railways reservation. In addition, the ORR reservation allows for a bridge over the rail line. Tate Street and Albany Highway: To transfer a portion of Tate Street from Urban to PRR (Figure 6). To provide consistency in the extent of the PRR reservation at intersections along Albany Highway. Sevenoaks Street: To transfer a portion of Sevenoaks Street at 69 Sevenoaks Street Bentley from ORR to Industrial and Urban (Figure 6). The area of land classified
