Background

The City of Cockburn has received a proposal for a Structure Plan amendment for the land located at Lot 104 (#645) Rockingham Road, Lot 3 (#643) Rockingham Road and Lot 103 (#66) West Churchill Avenue, Lake Coogee.

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:

  • An increased residential density code of R30 and R40, with an estimated yield of 60 lots, and provision of an amended local road layout and public open space
  • An amended local road network with Figtree Avenue now connecting into Templetonia Rise, rather than north into West Churchill Avenue and removal of the east-west connection through the site
  • A new cul-de-sac road from West Churchill Avenue
  • A revised layout and increase of 381m2 of public open space, which connects to existing ceded portions of public open space and contains the heritage wall and ruin/s.

The structure plan is guided by technical appendices addressing aspects of the proposal including:

  • Traffic Impact Assessment
  • Acoustic Report
  • Bushfire Attack Level
  • Stormwater Technical Note
  • Heritage Wall Structural Report
  • Draft Landscape Plan
  • Indicative Layout Plan.

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.
