    The first open day at Mt Claremont was a success with approximately 60 people attending. Opinions and views about proposed Local Planning Scheme 3 were wide and varied. Everyone who attended is encouraged to make a submission, in whatever format is easiest, so we can capture everyone’s thoughts and report accurately back to Council.

    For those people who have not attended an open day yet - don’t forget, the next one will be at Dalkeith Hall this Thursday evening from 4pm – 7pm. Please feel free to drop in and have a chat to a planner.

    The City of Nedlands has been made aware of a fake flyer (see image) circulating in parts of Mt Claremont that contains false information about proposed changes to draft Local Planning Scheme No. 3. These incorrect details relate to possible modifications to residential densities, commonly referred to as R-Codes.

    It is really important that you access the correct information and not rely on any unauthorised flyers.

    To confirm, the draft LPS3 proposes an increase in density from R10 to R20 in some parts of Mt Claremont with no change to the existing maximum height permitted.

    The City is giving everyone every opportunity to have their say by having a four-month consultation period and using numerous methods to ensure you can gain the information you need to know.

    Whether it’s letters to residents, online information, advertising, community open days or even talking to the planners themselves, the City is committed to keeping the community informed in a fair and open manner.

    To ensure you access the correct information – and to see whether your property may be affected – read the information on this engagement page, and/or contact the City’s Strategic Planning Team on 9273 3500.

    The public comment period on draft LPS3 is open until 5pm, 29 March 2018.
