Shire of West Arthur LPS No 2

Notice of public advertisement of Local Planning Policy
The Council has prepared the following draft Local Planning Policy


Local Planning Policy No 1 provides exemptions for the need to obtain development approval for a range of uses. This currently only relates to outbuildings which are ancillary to dwellings. It is proposed to reduce the need for development approvals for farm sheds, where possible.

The objective of Local Planning Policy No 2 is to clarify the need for a development application for farm sheds and to ensure that there is no adverse impact on the rural character of an area.

The draft Policy is available for inspection at the local government office, 31 Burrowes Street, Darkan or the Shire’s website www.westarthur.wa.gov.au.  Comments on the Policy may be submitted to the local government in writing on or before the 25 day of November 2019.
