This policy indicates the WAPC’s basic requirements for the creation of new lots as well as the procedures it will follow in processing subdivision applications.
With the review of the Residential Design Code (R-Codes) there is an opportunity to consider consolidation of related policy instruments, to improve usability and remove duplication across planning instruments.
Public comment is being sought on the:
- relocation of relevant provisions from Operational Policy 2.2 Residential Subdivision (OP 2.2) into Operational Policy 1.1 Subdivision of land – general principles (OP 1.1) and the R-Codes; and
- subsequent repealing of OP 2.2 and renaming OP 1.1 to Operational Policy Subdivision.
