Consultation has concluded. The City is currently working on a suite of planning documents for the area.

The Nedlands Stirling Highway Activity Corridor Precinct spans the Highway from Loch Street in the west to Clifton Street in the east. The project area encompasses the Mixed Use zone on Stirling Highway and the adjacent residential areas located north and south of the Highway (Annotated below as Precincts A, B, E, F, G, H, I).

LPS3 introduced new zoning and density coding to Stirling Highway and up-coded the residential transition areas, allowing higher density development within this Precinct area.

The City now has an opportunity to prepare a policy informed by community engagement that outlines the vision for the precinct. The policy will also include built form provisions that provide a design response consistent with the desired character of the area.

What has been done so far? 

In mid-2019, the City engaged consultants to undertake engagement with the local community about their future vision for the Town Centre Precinct. The feedback gathered during this consultation process will directly influence the creation of the local precinct planning policy.

In early 2020, the City engaged specialist consultants to undertake a Character and Built Form study for the Town Centre Precinct. The City also undertook character surveys of the residential areas north and south of the highway.

The findings and recommendations of these background reports will be used as an informing document to assist in preparing a policy that aligns with community expectation.

The Stakeholder Reference Group (SRG) for the SHAC Precinct area has been established and met several times over the past year to work with the City in developing a vision for the SHAC Precinct and identify those key design elements that will help define the future look and feel of the precinct.

Built form modelling has been done to demonstrate potential building envelopes, and this work has been cycled back in to the SRG for consideration. This work is currently feeding into the creation of a draft policy for the area.

In 2021, City Officers decided to split the Mixed Use zone and the Residential zone into two separate processes. The Mixed Use zone has more stakeholders, more complexity and will require more time, whereas a policy for the residential zone can be developed reasonably quickly.

What is happening next? 

The policy for the residential areas is now being advertised for comment until 9 December 2022. Please visit the NSHAC-R Your Voice page for information.
