North Perth Master Plan
The City of Vincent has prepared a Master Plan for the North Perth Town Centre (Fitzgerald and Angove Streets), that was adopted by the Council at its Ordinary Meeting held on 12 February 2013.
The purpose of the Master Plan is to provide an overarching document that provides the conceptual and strategic direction for the future development of the North Perth Town Centre. Fitzgerald Street (North Perth) has been identified as an Activity Centre in the Directions 2031 – Central Metropolitan Perth Sub-Regional Strategy and as an area for rapid transit infrastructure in the Department of Transport’s Public Transport Plan for Perth in 2031 document. This makes the area an ideal location for growth and development.
The Master Plan will be used as a working document to guide development in the North Perth Town Centre and be used to guide future amendments to the City's Local Planning Scheme and Policies.
The Master Plan can be viewed under the 'Related Links' below.
Background
On 17 August 2011, a workshop with the business and land owners within the Town Centre area was held, to gain an understanding of the issues, opportunities and constraints within the area. These outcomes were used to inform the Master Plan. A second highly successful community workshop for the wider residential community was held on Wednesday 28 September 2011. The feedback gained at both the workshops was highly beneficial and has been used in the preparation of the draft Master Plan.
The Council at its Ordinary Meeting held on 24 April 2012, resolved to advertise the draft Master Plan, which was advertised for public comment between 5 June 2012 and 3 July 2012.
The outcomes of the consultation and implementation of the Master Plan are to be considered by the Council at a Council Member Forum on 17 July 2012.
