1.0 Introduction

1.1 Background

The Shire of Harvey is experiencing an extended period of signifi cant economic and urban growth in the Australind Urban Corridor. It is timely that provision be made for an adequate level of services to support this growth.

Approval of this structure plan by both Council and the Western Australian Planning Commission (WAPC) will establish the framework for future rezoning, subdivision and development.

2.0 Phys ical Context

2.1 Site and Situation

The subject land is situated in the Eaton/Australind Urban Growth Corridor extending northward from the City of Bunbury (see Figure 1 – Location Plan).

The subject land is located within urban expansion areas of Treendale and Kingston and will eventually link south across the Collie River to Millbridge, the Peninsula and Eaton.

2.2 Land Tenure

The subject land is located of two titles in separate ownership. The land is described as Lots 201 on deposited plan 37204 and Lot 9010 on deposited plan 51961 (see Appendix A – Certifi cate of Titles).

2.3 Landform

The proposed “Commercial Light Industrial Precinct” site is situated on a cleared area. The site is extremely fl at with a uniformed elevation of 13.8 metres AHD.

Geotechnical investigations have indicated that there are no acid sulphate soils in the area and that the land form does not impose signifi cant servicing constraints.

3.0 Statutory Context

3.1 Statement of Planning Policy No. 1

The Statement of Planning Policy No. 1 is the State planning framework. It incorporates the State Planning Strategy and existing regional policies and plans into an ordered hierarchy for decision making on land use and development. As a Statement of Planning Policy, the Commission and Local Governments’ must have “due regard” to the provisions when making decisions on planning matters.

3.2 State Planning Strategy

The State Planning Strategy was adopted by the Western Australian Planning Commission in December 1997. It is designed to provide a strategic guide for land use planning throughout the State through to the year 2029. The strategy sets out:

• A common vision for development in the State and for the regions within it.• Provides a guide to the State Government on its land use planning response and on the

programs and actions required to achieve the visions set out in the strategy.• Identifi es the likely changes and prepares for them.• Establishes the mechanisms to ensure the strategy is implemented and kept current.

The State Planning Strategy’s vision is to:“…signifi cantly contribute to the quality of life of all Western Australians in the years to 2029, by using the landuse planning system to facilitate and contribute to regional wealth; the preservation and enhancement of the environment; and the building of dynamic and safe communities which nurture human activity.” (Page 2)

The Strategy recognises that the South West Urban System (extending from Perth, south to Bunbury, Busselton and Albany) will be subject to substantial development pressure. It requires the area to be managed by developing more sustainable and identifi able new communities, protection of natural resource areas and reinforcement of strategic transport routes.

3.3 Greater Bunbury Region Scheme

The Greater Bunbury Region Scheme provides regional level statutory controls for the Greater Bunbury Area.

Figure 2 - Greater Bunbury Region Scheme identifi es the western portion of the subject land as “Urban” and the balance as “Urban Deferred”. This land use designation incorporates “… areas in which a range of activities, including residential, commercial, recreational and light industrial are undertaken.”

3.4 Bunbury Wellington Region Plan and Greater Bunbury Structure Plan

The Bunbury – Wellington Region Plan and Greater Bunbury Structure Plan were endorsed by State Cabinet in 1995. They provide a framework in which Local Government Town Planning Schemes have been evaluated. Figure 3 - Greater Bunbury Structure Plan identifi es the subject land in its wider context.

The Greater Bunbury Structure Plan includes the subject land within planning unit CO6 which is identifi ed for “… medium – long term urban expansion, with a District Commercial Centre, Light Industrial Area and wide reserves along the river”. Planning guidelines also recommend a requirement for the Structure Plan.

The unit statement also includes a limitation on the size of the proposed District Centre to neighbourhood size until at least the year 2006, but encouraged the early establishment of local shopping and district level business and community service functions. In addition, it promotes “local shopping and district level business, community service functions” as well as “local commercial and civic facilities” within the District Centre Precinct.

3.5 Shire of Harvey District Town Planning Scheme No.1(TPS No.1)

The Shire of Harvey Town Planning Scheme No.1 was gazetted on the 12th of November 1996. The majority of the subject land and surrounding Treendale neighbourhood is zoned “Residential Development” (see Figure 4 – Existing Zoning). The eastern portion is zoned “General Farming”. The southern portion of “General Farming” zoned land is presently the subject of Town Planning Scheme Amendment No.70. This amendment is waiting gazettal. The land subject to this structure plan will be subject to a seperate amendment proposal.

3.6 Treendale Structure Plan

The Treendale Farm Structure Plan dated April 2001 has been endorsed by the Shire of Harvey and the Western Australian Planning Commission (see Figure 5 – Treendale Farm Structure Plan).

Subsequent to the adoption of this document, minor modifi cations to the Structure Plan have been ongoing. These do not signifi cantly impact on this site. Figure 5 depicts the current structure plan.

The philosophy of the Treendale Farm Structure Plan encompasses the following objectives:• To protect the environmental qualities of the Collie and Brunswick Rivers associated

wetlands and fl ood plains;• To build upon the local and regional planning for the area and create a vibrant district

centre that will act as a cultural and commercial focus for the locality;• To be innovative in the application of urban design principles and incorporate key

aspects of the Liveable Neighbourhoods Community Design Code;• To provide a mechanism which will allow refi nement and staging of the Treendale Farm

Structure Plan;• To provide for strong pedestrian connectivity utilizing a permeable road network, open

space linkages and conservation areas;• To develop an integrated open space and drainage network which maximizes ground

water recharge at source and ensure urban runoff is stripped of nutrients prior to discharging; and

• Given the fl at topography of the site, artifi cial focuses, or landmarks, are to be created by strategic use of open space and concentrating more intensive land uses at specifi c points and emphasizing these locations by adopting regid geometric road layouts.

The Structure Plan has been developed to promote a broad range of employment generated land uses to foster a vibrant and self sustaining community including district and local commercial centres, industrial, service commercial and mixed business areas.

3.7 Treendale District Centre Structure Plan

The subject land abuts the proposed Treendale District Centre site (see Figure 6 – Treendale District Centre Structure Plan). This structure plan has been adopted by the Shire of Harvey and the Western Australian Planning Commission. It provides for detailed consideration of:

• fl oor space; • streetscape;• building design principles; • built form; and• servicing.

4.0 Concept Development

4.1 Design Philosophy

The design philosophy of the “Commercial – Light Industrial Precinct Concept Structure Plan” is to provide a high level of local amenity and provide a clear demarcation between private and public land. (See Figure 7 – Concept Plan). The proposed layout ensures that no lots back directly onto the landscaped highway buffers.

The proposed public open space corridor provides high levels of accessibility through the subject land to future “Community Purpose” sites and provides a safe linkage to the adjoining District Centre site.

The proposal depicts a range of lot sizes to ensure that a wide range of activities can be accommodated on the subject land.

4.2 Relationship to District Centre

The concept plan depicts a complementary and integrated transition of land uses between “District Centre” uses on the western boundary and “Light Industrial” land to the north. The concept plan shows a hardware store to mediate uses and defi ne the north western interface edge with existing light industrial uses. The western edge provides opportunity for built form to address the street and provide an attractive interface with the adjoining community purpose site and screen car parking from the street environment.

The south western section includes a potential fast food precinct that will interface with the proposed fast food site within the district centre. I high degree of streetscape amenity can be achieved through the limited use of crossovers and orientation of buildings to address the public realm. The balance of the site serviced by internal roads to additional setbacks and landscaping treatments to ensure an attractive interface with abutting future residential land use to the south.

4.3 Interface with Australind Bypass

The proposed concept plan is consistent with the intent of the Treendale Farm Structure Plan which identifi es a “POS and Landscape Buffer” along the Australind Bypass interface. The proposed concept plan depicts a 20m POS strip abutting the Bypass reserve which is intended to contain a landscaped bund (see Figure 8 – Typical Cross Section). This “buffer” is further expanded by the use of a 20m wide internal servicing road, which maximizes the opportunity for buffering and screening development from the Bypass, while providing scope for passive surveillance.

4.4 Interface with Residential Landuses

The proposed concept plan area abuts residential land to the south. The concept plan design appropriately acknowledges the residential interface by providing:

• Internal servicing roads to appropriately separate residential and “commercial” vehicle movements;

• Provision of an interface with the “community purpose” site for a signifi cant portion of the residential interface. This provides opportunity for passive surveillance, direct access to community facilities and opportunities for open aspects and high levels of streetscape amenity; and

• The stepping of lot sizes and potential larger scale development away from the residential interface. The design effectively screens future “Light Industrial” uses from the residential streetscape.

4.5 Servicing

4.5.1 RoadsThe site will be serviced by local roads with a minimum reserve of 20 metres.

4.5.2 DrainageThe Treendale drainage system is a piped system which discharges into an existing bio-retential swale. This has been constructed as part of the Treendale residential development. The existing drainage system has been designed to accommodate drainage fl ows generated by the subject land.

Figure 8Typical Cross Section


4.5.3 SewerageA sewerage strategy has been developed for the entire Treendale estate based on current planning and discussions with the Water Corporation.

4.5.4 Water SupplyA water supply strategy has been developed for the entire Treendale estate based on current planning and discussions with Water Corporation.

4.5.5 PowerThe power supply strategy has been developed for the entire Treendale estate. This is based on planning and discussions with Western Power and involves a series of transformers across the site.

4.5.6 TelecommunicationsA telecommunications strategy has been developed for the entire Treendale estate based on current planning and discussions with Telstra.

4.5.7 GasA gas reticulaion strategy also been developed for the entire Treendale estate based on current planning and discussions with Alinta Gas.

4.6 Design Guidelines

Appendix C contains design guidelines and detailed area plans that provide controls for future development ensuring a high amenity outcome.

The guidelines have been prepared to address issues associated with landuses, setback, building form and access to ensure a high quality interface with adjoining land areas/district centre and minimise potential for land use confl ict.

5.0 Implementat ion

5.1 Structure Plan Approval

The Shire of Harvey Town Planning Scheme No.1 stipulates the need to prepare a structure plan prior to subdivision or development occurring. The structure plan and implementation provisions follow this section. (See Figures 9 & 10)

5.2 Zoning

It is proposed to rezone the land as part of town planning scheme amendment. This process will provide the statutory controls to guide future subdivision and development.

5.3 Subdivision

Subdivision is to occur generally in accordance with the structure plan. It is expected that design guidelines will be required as a condition of subdivision to control matters of detailed design for future development.

5.4 Development Approvals

Development shall be in accordance with the structure plan provisions, scheme requirements and approved Design Guidelines.

Design Guidelines

Objectives

a) To develop and maintain an attractive Commercial Precinct fronting the “The Promenade”;

b) To provide a high standard of visual amenity and provide an attractive and complementary interface to the District Centre and residential frontages;

c) To achieve a cohesive built environment;d) To encourage development in a form that will give regard to security of property and the

safety of users; ande) To encourage buildings to address open space areas and provide passive surveillance

of car parking areas.

Application of Guidelines

a) The Guidelines apply to the area detailed in the Development Guide Plan referenced as number 11072P-MP-03; and

b) The Guidelines are to be read in conjunction with the Development Guide Plan and the relevant Scheme provisions applicable to the site.

Design Guideline Elements

The Commercial Precinct is divided into three distinctive precincts. Specifi c design objectives and elements relevant to each precinct are contained on the Development Guide Plan. General element provisions applicable to the entire Commercial Precinct are set out in the following Design Elements.

Where there is a confl ict between the intent of the general guidelines and the specifi c guidelines and elements presented on the Development Guide Plan, the specifi c guidelines and elements shall prevail.

General Guidelines

The general provisions of the Guidelines are set out in each of the following Design Elements:

Statement of Intent – Key Objective

The Commercial Precinct is to provide a high quality streetscape and built form environment that complements District Centre activity and provides a positive interface with open space environments and responds sympathetically with adjoining residential landholdings.


ELEMENT 1 – STREETSCAPE AND BUILT FORM

Setbacks

a) Setbacks shall comply with the Detailed Guide Plan (DGP) where specifi cally mentioned. All other setbacks shall be determined in accordance with Table 14 of the Shire of Harvey Town Planning Scheme No.1;

b) Verandas and awnings may project up to 2.5 metres forward of the setback line and shall be a minimum of 2.75m above the foot path;

c) Setback areas shall only be used to contain car parking, landscaping and pedestrian access paths; and

d) Notwithstanding a) above, minor setback variations will be supported where they assist in breaking the linear form and provide interest.

d) Setback areas shall not be used for the storage of materials, products or by-products or wastes, the storage of fuel, machinery or plant equipment.

Building Height

a) A building shall not exceed a height of Category C of the Residential Planning Codes.

Facades and Structures

a) All elevations visible from the street are to include a high degree of architectural design detail at the pedestrian scale;

b) Long straight, unrelieved, horizontal lines should be broken by interesting design devices to suit a pedestrian environment and the building;

c) Plant rooms, servicing and storage areas shall be screened from the street environment; d) Roller doors shall generally be positioned to minimise impact on the street elevations. If

a roller door is required to address the street, it shall be restricted to a width of no greater than 6.5 metres; and

e) Transportable buildings shall be prohibited.

Windows/Glazing

a) The continuity of glazing on street elevations should be broken to provide interest by solid (opaque) vertical panels, framework and/or strong visual displays;

Entrance

a) Entrances to a building should be clearly visible from the street environment and should not be obscured by columns, planting or other features. Major doorways should be evident as such, with minor entrances also easily seen; and

b) Major entrances should include access for people of limited mobility. Access will be required as under the Building Code of Australia.


Signage

a) All signage structures and signage shall be of a scale that refl ects the related development and be located and maintained in a manner that does not limit sightlines or create potential for public safety issues;

b) Signs should be integrated within the design of the building or the space in which it is proposed to be placed where practical;

c) Street numbering shall be integrated within the design of the building or the space in which it is proposed to be placed; and

d) Signage and advertising on glazed areas shall be limited to 30% of each street frontage. Signage and advertising on glazed areas shall be of a professional standard and of a style and theme consistent with other advertising integrated within the design of the building.

Colours

a) Colour should be used so that every building is different and interesting but not at the expense of its neighbours; and

b) Colour should differentiate between brick, render and wood surfaces and be used to highlight articulation or other architectural features where desirable.

Awnings and Verandahs

a) Weather protection on street frontage building façades is to be provided;b) Verandah roofs should be of solid light impenetrable material and should provide full

shade and shelter from sun, wind and rain; and c) If verandahs are provided, they and their supports, if any, should be designed to

complement the building’s architecture and scale.

Materials

a) Highly refl ective colorbond or zincalume roofs materials are not permitted;b) Use of external second hand materials shall not be permitted.

Fencing

a) Fencing abutting the Recreation reserve as defi ned on the Development Guide Plan shall be 1.8m high and consist of 1.8m high masonry piers with open picket infi ll above a 750mm high portion of masonry wall;

b) Side fencing abutting the “Public Purpose” site shall be constructed of 1.8m open mesh fencing with steel pole piers;

c) Front fencing is not supported, unless it is less than 750mm in height, matches with the design, material and colour of the building façade and forms part of a landscaping treatment;


d) Side fencing forward of the building line shall be consistent with the theme of the building in terms of colour and materials, reducing at the building line to a 45 degree angle to a height not exceeding 1 metre; and

e) No fi bro cement fencing is permitted.

ELEMENT 2 – LANDSCAPING

Landscaping Plan

a) A detailed landscaping plan shall be required for developments. The plan shall include details of planting, lighting and paving.

Information provided shall include all plant types clearly labelled and located, proposed numbers, sizes and spacing of plants and details of soil improvement and reticulation.

Street Frontages

a) Landscaping should be in the form of trees and low level plantings that will not block views between the road and buildings at eye level;

b) A minimum of 20% of the front setback area shall be landscaped; c) A minimum of 10% of secondary street setbacks areas shall be landscaped; andd) Landscaping is to apply “Waterwise” principles and predominantly incorporate native

plant species.

Car Parks

a) Any car parking or open areas facing streets shall be enhanced with extensive tree planting, lighting in accordance with relevant Australian Standards, paving etc so as to present a quality street frontage.

Lighting and Paving

a) All external lighting of buildings should be designed to complement the character of the streetscape; and

b) Paving should be used to enhance and identify pedestrian, cycle and vehicular access ways.

ELEMENT 3 – MOVEMENT AND PARKING

Pedestrian Movement

a) The pedestrian network shall provide a safe and attractive link between buildings and their respective parking areas; and

b) Development adjacent to footpaths and other pedestrian areas should provide an attractive and interesting frontage to the route. The use of blank walls, exhaust vents and mechanical equipment will not be supported where abutting pedestrian ways and street frontages.
