Belmont Business Talk2

Welcome to the first edition of the Belmont

Business Talk for 2013. I trust that you

enjoyed a well-earned break over Christmas

and New Year.

In November last year the Belmont

Business Enterprise Centre (BEC) celebrated

its 19th year of presenting the Belmont

Business Awards. This was a fantastic

opportunity for small and growing

enterprises to be recognised for their

achievements. Congratulations to all

of the winners but especially to our

local Belmont business winners.

2013 will see the City of Belmont continue

to prosper and change. The Great

Eastern Highway upgrade is scheduled

for completion by mid-year, bringing

with it improved opportunities for our

local business community.

In this edition of the Business Talk, we

extend invitations to a great selection of

workshops and discussion groups. The

subjects on offer range from a digital

business round table event to a transport

industry showcase and an information

session about flexible density development.

We at the City of Belmont are committed

to consultation and engagement with our

local business community and I strongly

encourage you to participate in one of

these useful and informative events.

We also continue our focus on sustainable

transport within the city. We are once again

proud to support the annual celebration of

cycling with the ‘Cycle Instead Bikeweek’

and in doing so, we will be hosting a ‘Bike

to Work Breakfast’ in March. The Belmont

Bike Plan is now open for comment and

we would welcome your feedback to ensure

that we create a plan that works for you.

I trust that you all have a very happy and

prosperous 2013! I look forward to meeting

and catching up with many of you at the

various business functions that we hold

during the year.

The City of Belmont is hosting an event for local

land developers and agents to promote a shared

understanding of the coding and its application

in the Town Centre to achieve the Directions

2031 density targets.

The event will feature a presentation by

Gavin Hegney, Founding Director of the

Hegney Property Group. Gavin is one of

Australia’s most influential voices in property.

The event will take place on Wednesday,

13 March at the Civic Centre and is by

invitation only. The City is offering eight places

to Belmont Business Talk newsletter readers.

Please email [email protected]

with your contact details should you wish to

secure one of these places.

flexible density and the Local Planning

Scheme 15, you can find it at

www.belmont.wa.gov.au/Services/Planning

What is Flexible Density and how does it increase the value of land?

Do you know the difference between these two wasps?With the heat of summer now upon us, you may see more wasps around your

premises. Below is some simple information to help you identify between a normal

Paper Wasp and the more concerning European Wasp.

European Wasps are an exotic pest established in the Eastern States but not yet

established here in Western Australia and we want to keep it that way. Many people ask

why European Wasps are pests and why we need to be vigilant in looking out for them.

They are extremely aggressive, sting repeatedly with little or no provocation and

if they do get established, they will seriously impact our outdoor way of life.

European Wasps attack bees and bee hives, robbing the hives of honey and

sometimes completely destroying hives.

Any sightings of black and yellow wasps settling on pet foods, fish or other meat

products should be regarded as particularly suspicious and reported immediately

to the Agricultural Department on 1800 084 881. Alternatively please call the

City’s Health Department on 9477 7222 should you need any further advice.

City successfully prosecutes for

breach of Local Planning SchemeThe City has been pursuing a number of unlawful land uses and

prohibited unsightly outdoor storage activities which are operating

contrary to the Local Planning Scheme.

The City recently successfully prosecuted a company for breaching

the Local Planning Scheme for unlawful industrial related land use

and was awarded $213,700 with the company being requested to

cease all operations.

Whilst the City works closely with businesses to rectify breaches,

where matters cannot be resolved, legal action may ultimately be

undertaken. The City would like to encourage all businesses to do

the right thing as this is not an outcome that is favoured.

The City of Belmont works hard in all areas of planning, environment

and business development in order to revitalise the Mixed Business

Zone within the City.

To avoid being fined up to $1 million for incorrect land uses please

ensure that the correct approvals are sought before you consider

expanding or developing within the area.

For more information on the Mixed Business Zone and to find out about

appropriate land uses or development opportunities contact the City’s

Planning Department on 9477 7276 visit www.belmont.wa.gov.au.
