All scheme amendments open for comment are listed below.
Occasionally, it is necessary to amend the City’s Local Planning Scheme. When a change is proposed to the Local Planning Scheme, it is referred to as a Scheme Amendment. A Scheme Amendment can be proposed by landowners, the City itself or State Government agencies.
Scheme Amendments occur for a variety of reasons including:
To implement the strategic vision of the Local Planning Strategy
To ensure orderly and proper planning.
A change in the Scheme’s wording to ensure more effective planning
A change in zoning
A change in the residential density coding
There are three types of Scheme Amendments; Basic, Standard and Complex as defined in the Planning and Development (Local Planning Schemes) Regulations 2015. Basic Scheme Amendments do not require advertising and are therefore not open for comment, whereas Standard Scheme Amendments are advertised and open for comment for 42 days and Complex Scheme Amendments for 60 days.
All comments and submissions are taken into consideration by the City's Planning Officers, and issues raised through submissions are required to be addressed as part of the planning assessment of a proposed Scheme Amendment. City Planning Officers will prepare their assessment and report to Council with a recommendation on the applicable scheme amendment, taking into account issues raised from submissions, alongside all other relevant planning considerations. The Council will then forward its recommendation to the Western Australian Planning Commission (WAPC) and the Minister for their consideration of the Scheme Amendment.
