Scheme Amendment | 7 and 9-15 Quarry Street, Fremantle
Consultation on this topic has concluded.
We have initiated a planning scheme amendment for the use and development of three lots on Quarry St, Fremantle.
The City of Fremantle is looking to dispose of three properties located at Lots 1, 2 and 8 Quarry Street, Fremantle (street numbers 7 and 9 – 15), and wishes to sell them as a combined site.
The sites have different zonings under the local planning scheme. Since 2018, the City has been exploring options on a potential scheme amendment to change this, so that all lots share a common zoning. This would allow them to be sold and redeveloped together in a coordinated way.
Currently, the lots are zoned a combination of low-density (R25) residential (Lot 8) and high-density (R-AC3) mixed-use (Lots 1 and 2). The table below outlines the current details of each lot:
| Summary of lots subject to this scheme amendment | ||||
| Lot | Street No. | Land Area (m2) | Current Zoning under Planning Scheme | Current Density (R-Code) under the Planning Scheme |
| Lot 2 | 7 | 582 | Mixed-Use | R-AC3 (High Density) |
| Lot 1 | 7 | 895 | Mixed-Use | R-AC3 (High Density) |
| Lot 8 | 9-15 | 2656 | Residential | R25 (Low Density) |
| TOTAL | 4133 | - | - | |
What is proposed for the site?
At the Ordinary Meeting of Council held on 24 July 2019, a formal amendment to the planning scheme was initiated. This was subsequent to a 12 month period of preliminary engagement with the local community on a potential scheme amendment, which considered various future zoning options for the site.
The amendment proposes a zoning on the site of ‘Mixed Use’ with a residential density of R80 (i.e. medium density). This density is in between the current densities of the lots. In addition to the re-zoning, rules to control building design are proposed in the planning scheme text as well as a new local planning policy.
A summary of the key provisions proposed for this site as part of the new amendment is outlined in the following table. These have been prepared in response to the extensive community consultation that has been undertaken on the proposed amendment to-date. The map at the top of this page provides a visual guide to the information in the table below.
| Planning Element | Proposed Provision under Scheme Amendment |
| Zoning | Mixed-Use – allows for both residential and commercial development on the site |
| Residential Density | R80 – medium density |
| Building Height | For buildings within 10m of the side boundaries – Maximum 6m wall height and Maximum 9m roof height (typically 2 storeys). For the remainder of the site – Maximum 10m wall height and Maximum 12m roof height (typically 3 storeys). |
| Street Setbacks | For buildings within 10m of the side boundaries - Minimum 4m and maximum 10m For the remainder of the site - Minimum 2m and maximum 4m |
| Boundary Setbacks |
|
| Solar Access |
|
| Other | Windows or balconies and open style fencing is required to face the park to provide surveillance. |
How can I find out more?
Further information on the scheme amendment can be found in the Relevant Information section on the right-hand side of this page. This includes previous Council reports on the proposal, as well as the draft scheme text and local planning policy for the site.

In approving the policy, the WAPC resolved to remove a clause recommended by Council relating to overshadowing not exceeding 25 percent of the neighbouring site. Their reasoning for removing the specific shadowing requirement was as follows:
- There is no specific need in the locality for the default Residential Design Codes (R-Codes) provisions to be varied;
- The solar access (i.e. overshadowing) provision is onerous for an R-AC3 coded site; and
- Site-specific development controls within the existing statutory frameworks adequately address solar access provisions.
The modified policy now forms part of the City’s planning policy manual and can be viewed on the City’s website.

Amendment No. 77 Gazetted
Share Amendment No. 77 Gazetted on Facebook Share Amendment No. 77 Gazetted on Twitter Share Amendment No. 77 Gazetted on Linkedin Email Amendment No. 77 Gazetted linkThe Minister for Planning has approved Planning Scheme Amendment No. 77. The amendment was gazetted on 13 November 2020, and now forms part of the City of Fremantle’s Local Planning Scheme No. 4.
The amendment re-zones Nos. 7 & 9-15 Quarry Street, Fremantle, to ‘Mixed Use’ with a residential density of R80 (i.e. medium density). These lots were previously zoned a combination of ‘Residential R25’ and ‘Mixed-Use R-AC3’. The amendment also incorporates some specific development requirements for the site into Schedule 7 of the Planning Scheme (e.g. building height and boundary setbacks).
As part of the Minister’s approval, some changes were made to the final amendment. The most notable change was to specify that building heights should be as per the Residential Design Codes of Western Australia (R-Codes), rather than the maximum 3 storeys and 12m proposed by Council. However, the requirement that buildings be limited to 6m max. wall height and 9m max. overall height within 10m of the neighbouring north-eastern and south-western boundaries has been retained. The R-Codes specify a default 4 storey height limit for multiple dwellings (apartments) in R80 coded areas.
The City is still waiting for a decision from the WAPC on the draft local planning policy 3.1.3.1. This page will be updated with further details on the status of the policy as they come to hand.
Should there be any queries regarding this project, please contact the City's Strategic Planning Department who are happy to assist via the contact details on this page.
The Local Planning Scheme No. 4 Text has been updated to reflect the changes - refer to 'Area 6A' of Schedule 7, Sub Area 2.3.1 for development requirements. The revised scheme text can also be downloaded via the document library on this page.

3. Give further consideration to the scheme amendment and any other mechanisms to secure Councils preferred development outcomes on advice from the Strategic Planning and Transport Committee.
