Pursuant to section 126(3) of the Planning and Development Act 2005, the Western Australian Planning Commission (WAPC) has the option of concurrently rezoning land that is being zoned Urban under a region scheme, to a zone which is consistent with the objective of the Urban zone in the corresponding local planning scheme.

In this respect, the WAPC has resolved to concurrently amend the Shire of Mundaring Local Planning Scheme No. 4 to transfer the area being zoned Urban to the Development zone. This amendment to Local Planning Scheme No. 4 is effective on and from the date of publication of this notice in the Government Gazette being 26 September 2025.
