Revised Local Planning Policy Adopted

Council adopted minor revisions to the Freo Alternative Local Planning Policy, known officially as Local Planning Policy 3.20: Special Control Area Provisions for Small Infill Development. This policy contains additional development requirements that supplement the key provisions in the Local Planning Scheme. All developments seeking approval under the new Freo Alternative provisions will need to satisfy the requirements of the policy, which includes requirements for sustainability, open space, rear setbacks, vehicle access and car parking among other criteria.

A copy of the adopted policy is available to download on the local planning policies page of the City's website, or alternatively via the Document Library on this page.

Further information on the policy can be obtained by contacting the City's Duty Planner between 9am and 4.30pm Monday to Friday on 9432 9999.
