The City of Cockburn has received a proposal for a Structure Plan Amendment for land located at Lot 80, 815,78 and 813 Wattleup Road, Hammond Park. Submissions on this proposal are invited from the community.

About this application

A structure plan coordinates the future development of land; what it will be developed for, and where infrastructure will go. If approved, this structure plan will enable the landowner to subdivide and develop lots consistent with the principles within the structure plan.

This structure plan proposes:

  • A residential density coding of ‘R20’ and ‘R30’, indicatively proposing 136 lots, and provision of the required local road network;
  • The extension of a 30m wide linear public open space reserve at the southern end of the Structure Plan area, to combined area of 2.7532 hectares, located between residential lots and the future Rowley Road reserve;
  • The provision of a 1755m² public open space reserve at the northern end of the Structure Plan area, directly south of Wattleup Road.

The structure plan is guided by technical appendices addressing aspects of the proposal including a bushfire management plan, urban water management plan, traffic impact assessment and transport noise assessment.

View the proposed structure plan and technical appendices in the Document Library.

What will happen next?

After the comment period, the City's Technical Officers will make a recommendation for Council to consider. This recommendation takes into account a range of considerations, including planning guidelines and community feedback. Following a Council decision, the application will proceed to the Western Australian Planning Commission (WAPC) for final determination on whether it should or should not proceed.
