The Minister for Planning and Lands has approved, as advertised, the abovementioned amendment to the Metropolitan Region Scheme (MRS). The amendment is shown on Amending Plan 3.2854 and is effective on and from the date of publication of this notice in the Government Gazette, being Tuesday 11 August 2026.
The amendment seeks to transfer approximately 3.22 hectares of land within Lot 3 (D48364) Midland Road, Hazelmere and a portion (2,316m2) of an adjacent road reserve (Land ID 3874440) from the Rural zone to the Urban zone under the MRS.
The proposed Urban zone will facilitate further planning and development of land within Lot 3 for light industrial purposes.
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 the Metropolitan Region Scheme, to a zone which is consistent with the objectives of the Urban zone in the corresponding local planning scheme.
In this respect, the WAPC resolved that the land being zoned Urban within MRS Amendment 1434 (Standard) be transferred to the Industrial Development zone in the City of Swan Local Planning Scheme No. 17. This amendment to Local Planning Scheme No. 17 is effective on and from the date of publication of this notice in the Government Gazette.
