The Western Australian Planning Commission (WAPC) can declare that a planning control area is required to ensure that no development occurs on this land which might prejudice its purpose or its potential reservation in the Metropolitan Region Scheme (MRS),  Peel Region Scheme (PRS) or Greater Bunbury Region Scheme (GBRS).  As a result, all development applications are determined by the WAPC.

Declaration of Planning Control Areas (PCAs), under Section 112 of the Planning and Development Act 2005, is a standard statutory planning process commonly used to protect strategic land from inappropriate development and can include acquisition by the WAPC where required.  A PCA remains in place for up to five years, to allow an MRS/PRS/GBRS amendment to be put in place.

PCA 129 - Lot 77 Yangedi Road, Keysbrook - Shire of Serpentine-Jarrahdale - May 2018

Overview

Planning Control Area (PCA) 129 was declared on 29 May 2018 over land at lot 77 Yangedi Road, Keysbrook in the Shire of Serpentine-Jarrahdale.

The PCA will protect the environmental values of this land. The WAPC considers that the PCA is required to ensure that no development occurs on this land which might prejudice this purpose until it may be reserved for Parks and Recreation in the Metropolitan Region Scheme.

What is a planning control area?

A PCA is a temporary measure to protect land required for a public purpose from development while an amendment to a region scheme is progressed.

Development cannot be carried out within the PCA area without the prior approval of the WAPC. The penalty for failure to comply with this requirement is $200,000 with a further fine of $25,000 for each additional day the offence continues.

A PCA remains in effect for a period of five years from the date it is published in the Government Gazette or until it is revoked by the WAPC with approval by the Minister.
