Metropolitan Region Scheme Amendment 1415 (Standard) - Children’s Hospice Site

The Western Australian Planning Commission (WAPC) is seeking public comment on a proposal to amend the Metropolitan Region Scheme (MRS) for land in the City of Nedlands.
Last updated:

The purpose of the amendment is to rezone approximately 5,945 m2 in Swanbourne from the Parks and Recreation reservation to the Public Purposes - Special Uses reservation in the MRS.

The amendment seeks to align the MRS with the WAPC’s development approval for a children’s hospice which includes patient rooms, family suites, family and play areas and allied health services.

The proposed amendment is to be progressed as a standard amendment as the size and scale of the proposed amendment is not considered regionally significant. It does not reflect a regional change to the planning strategy or philosophy for the metropolitan region.
