Background
The North Stoneville Structure Plan 34 proposed a new townsite within the Perth Hills. The structure plan was refused by the Western Australian Planning Commission (WAPC) on 14 July 2020. For details, view the meeting agenda and minutes.
The proponent, Satterley Property Group Pty Ltd, subsequently applied to the State Administrative Tribunal (SAT) for a review of the refusal. Mediation has occurred at the SAT in accordance with SAT processes. Visit the SAT for more information on the process.
At a directions hearing on 4 November 2022, the SAT made orders for the applicant (Satterley) to provide an amended structure plan and any supporting information to the respondent (WAPC) by 31 January 2023. The SAT also invited the respondent to reconsider its refusal decision before 30 June 2023. A copy of the SAT orders can be downloaded below.
Current status > Open for public comment
The Department of Planning, Lands and Heritage, on behalf of the WAPC, has received the amended structure plan and supporting information in accordance with the SAT orders.
The applicant submitted a replacement Part3B of the amended structure plan on 20 February 2023. This has been incorporated into the amended structure plan documentation.
The amended structure plan is now being advertised for public comment for a minimum period of 42 days.
Interested parties including the community, the Shire of Mundaring, the City of Swan and government agencies such as the Department of Fire and Emergency Services are invited to provide comment on the amended structure plan.
On 23 March 2023, the Applicant's consultant team provided the Department of Planning, Lands and Heritage an addendum to the amended structure plan to confirm inadvertent errors.
