    FAQs

    1. Why is the City proposing the allocation of a laneway?

    The City is proposing the allocation of a laneway between Taylor Rd and Dalkeith Rd to reduce the number of crossovers addressing Jenkins Ave. Following the gazette of the City of Nedlands Local Planning Scheme No. 3, properties to the immediate north of Jenkins Ave have been ‘up-coded’ to R60, which allows blocks to be subdivided into five (5) new lots. Each lot is entitled to a 6.0m wide vehicle driveway and crossover. To reduce the impact of the intensification of the land use on the adjoining ‘Safe Active Street’ (Jenkins Ave) and to minimise the creation of vehicle crossovers addressing the streetscape, the City is proposing the allocation of a laneway to remove vehicle access from the existing street network.

    1. When will land be required to be ceded to the City?

    Land owners are only required to cede land at the time of ‘significant’ redevelopment or subdivision. There is no requirement to cede land unless a development application or subdivision is applied for and subsequently approved.

    1. How does this policy affect property values?

    The City is currently pursuing a Scheme Amendment, which would allow the land area of a lot (pre-ceding) to be used as the development potential of a lot for the purposes of a development application. Subdivision and development potential is not proposed to be impacted by the Local Planning Policy.
