Local Planning Strategy: Planning Cockburn – Our City 2036
The City has advanced preparation of the draft Local Planning Strategy, considering a draft at the 8 October 2020 Ordinary Meeting of Council that has now been referred to the Western Australian Planning Commission (WAPC) for certification prior to the document being considered a ‘formal draft’ that can be advertised for public comment.
While timelines will be dependent on when the City receives certification/consent to advertise from the WAPC, progressing the Local Planning Strategy will involve the following steps:
- 2021 - Formal advertising of draft Local Planning Strategy (following WAPC certification/consent to advertise) - which will include extension community and stakeholder engagement
- Consideration of submissions
- Presentation of Local Planning Strategy to Council for support and referral to WAPC for endorsement.
