Revised Local Planning Strategy
At its meeting held on 13 December 2011 the Town of Bassendean adopted a revised Local Planning Strategy for community and stakeholder comment. The Town of Bassendean Local Planning Strategy is a Strategic Planning tool that enables the Council and community to set out its vision for the municipality, and to establish short, medium and longer term directions for sustainable land use and development. As a public document, the Town of Bassendean Local Planning Strategy provides the opportunity for Government Agencies and the community to also have input into strategic planning for the locality.
The updated Local Planning Strategy has been forwarded to the West Australian Planning Commission for approval to advertise. The public consultation program and the opportunity for community input and submissions will not commence until the West Australian Planning Commission has granted approval to advertise the document.
The public consultation program is expected to commence in the second quarter of 2012, and will involve several community workshop sessions and a public advertising and submission period.
At the close of the public submission period, Council will again consider the updated Local Planning Strategy in light of submissions, and if necessary, make modifications prior to finally adopting the document.
A full copy of the updated Local Planning Strategy document is available by clicking here
Public submissions will not be able to be considered until the West Australian Planning Commission has given approval to advertise the document.
