About this application

The City is required to advertise this application as certain land uses (Liquor Store, Health Studio and Restaurant) require an opportunity for community feedback under the City's Town Planning Scheme 3.

The proposed development includes a main shopping building incorporating:

• A ‘Woolworths’ supermarket
• Liquor store
• Food/beverage
• Speciality retail tenancies
• Two standalone fast-food outlets*
• Associated signage
• Access ways
• Parking areas
• Landscaping

*This application seeks approval for the fast-food land uses only. It does not include the actual development of said fast-food sites and would be subject to a future application.

For more information, read the Development and Planning Report in the Document Library.

Traffic management 

Vehicle access to the site will be provided via one crossover to Whadjuk Drive and two crossovers to Wattleup Road.

The core shopping centre building's loading, delivery, and storage areas will be provided at the western and southern sides. Loading bays specific to the standalone fast-food outlets are provided adjacent to those buildings. Delivery vehicles will enter the site via the western crossover on Wattleup Road.

For more information on the proposal's traffic management, including a road safety audit, read the Development and Planning Report in the Document Library.

About the assessment process

The City is not the determining body for this application.

At the end of the advertising period, the City will collate comments and prepare a Schedule of Submissions. The City will assess the application, considering the submissions and planning guidelines before making a recommendation to the Joint Development Assessment Panel (JDAP). The JDAP will decide the outcome of this planning application.
