What is the current zoning for the site?
The site is currently zoned Special Development Precinct under the City of Belmont Town Planning Scheme. This zoning allows for a range of development. It is not proposed to change the zoning of the site. The draft structure plan, once adopted by Council and WAPC, will guide the future development of The Springs, Rivervale. What is the landowner contribution plan? To help achieve a coordinated approach to redevelopment of the area, the existing roads, services and streetscapes will be upgraded. It is proposed the landowners within The Springs development area will contribute to the cost of these improvements. This will be enabled through a landowner contribution scheme. The Town Planning Scheme (TPS) Amendment, which will include the landowner contribution plan, is nearing finalisation and is expected to be submitted to the City of Belmont for approval to advertise in the first quarter 2008.
