Of the report's boundary recommendations for metropolitan Perth, Local Government Minister Tony Simpson has accepted all but two, those for the City of Perth/City of Vincent and the proposed City of Riversea, which includes five western suburbs councils. The Minister has rejected the Board’s recommendation for the City of Perth, on the basis that key icons such as The University of Western Australia (UWA) and the Queen Elizabeth II Medical Centre (QEII), were not included. As a result of the flow-on effects from City of Perth changes, he has also rejected the recommendation for the proposed City of Riversea, which includes five western suburbs councils.

  • City of Stirling Submission
    Reducing the Regulatory Burden on Business Taskforce Inquiry City of Stirling Submission In cooperation with the Stirling Business Association JOHN McILHONE Economic Development Business Analyst November 2005 Administration Centre 25 Cedric Street Stirling WA 6021 www.stirling.wa.gov.au Tel. 08 9345 8599 Mob. 0419 195 715 Email. [email protected] BACKGROUND The City of Stirling is the largest Local Authority Council in Western Australia by population. It covers an area of approximately 100 km² in metropolitan Perth and lies about 8 Kilometres North of the Perth CBD. Stirling has key industrial areas at Balcatta, Herdsman and Osborne Park with 11,500 small businesses located within the City, representing 11% of the State's small business, a significant concentration of employment and employers. All these areas are well serviced by major arterial roads with links to the Mitchell Freeway providing easy access to the Perth CBD, Perth Airport and Fremantle as well as the main highways leading north, south and east of the State. The northern suburban rail service from Perth, which runs up the centre of the freeway, passes through the City with stations at Glendalough — servicing Osborne Park and Scarborough Beach; Stirling — servicing the strategic regional centre and complemented by links to an extensive suburban bus network. Warwick station is another well patronised rail inter-change on the northern boarder of the City's boundary. The City is well serviced by regional shopping centres at Karrinyup and Mirrabooka. These centres serve both the local and wider community in the Perth northern corridor. The City also boasts a wide choice of residential areas, from the coastal suburbs of Waterman’s Bay, North Beach, Trigg and Scarborough through to the heritage areas of Mt.

  • Proposed Amendment No.188 to City of Swan Local Planning Scheme
    Ordinary Meeting of Council 06 May 2020 3.1 PROPOSED AMENDMENT NO.188 TO CITY OF SWAN LOCAL PLANNING SCHEME NO.17 - TO REMOVE VARIOUS LAND IN SOUTH GUILDFORD, ASCOT AND REDCLIFFE FROM THE SCHEME IN RESPONSE TO CITY OF BELMONT LOCAL PLANNING SCHEME AMENDMENT NO.11 Ward: (No Wards) (Statutory Planning) Disclosure of Interest: Nil Authorised Officer: (Executive Manager Planning and Development) KEY ISSUES • In December 2017 'Local Government (Belmont and Swan - Change of Boundaries) Order 2017' came into effect, which transferred approximately 12ha of land in South Guildford, Ascot and Redcliffe from the City of Swan to the City of Belmont. • The City of Belmont is seeking comment on their advertised Amendment No.11 to its Local Planning Scheme No.15 which, amongst other matters, seeks to: o Update their scheme's boundaries to include all land that was transferred from City of Swan to City of Belmont as part of the above 2017 Order. o Provide City of Belmont's local zones to this land, where required. This will result in Lot 2 Apac Way, South Guildford and Lot 3 Great Eastern Highway, Redcliffe being entirely zoned 'Industrial' and Lot 301 Great Eastern Highway, Ascot being entirely zoned 'Mixed Use'. • Staff have no objection to the City of Belmont's proposal as this land is no longer within the City of Swan and the proposed zones are considered logical. • With City of Belmont updating its scheme, it is timely for the City of Swan to take steps to update its Scheme to omit this same land. This is the purpose of proposed Amendment No.188 to City of Swan Local Planning Scheme No.17 (LPS17).
