The City of Kalamunda has completed the first stage of its community engagement activities for the development of Local Structure Plans for Forrestfield North.
The Forrestfield North project team is in the early stages of developing detailed Local Structure Plans and supporting technical documents for the Forrestfield North development area.
This will support the coordination and implementation of the subdivision and development around the Forrestfield Train Station.
Mayor Andrew Waddell said, “We thank all of the landowners and community members who attended workshops and completed surveys, with nearly 400 people getting involved.”
“I was very pleased to see so much interest. We took the approach of involving landowners and community members at this very early stage to ensure the draft structure plans are representative of community needs and desires, and to identify constraints which may need to be considered.”
Consultation outcomes show location was identified as a key feature, being close to employment, the city, transport and recreation, while connectedness, movement and tourism were identified as key areas of importance.
Participants said they appreciate the area’s existing vegetation, community feel and open spaces. They wish for this feeling to continue and would like the future development to feel family oriented, natural, relaxed and village-like, as well as being sustainable, modern, clean and contemporary.
When it came to discussion on density, some participants shared concerns around increased density and security, and some were supportive of higher density living around the station.
The project team is now using all the feedback put forward by landowners and community members, along with technical advice to draft the local structure plans, with public advertising of the draft plans to take place in early 2018.
