Challenges faced
The site adjoins the Southern River and the clients house on the river side of the subdivision road system. In addition the riverside portion of the property was affected by a categorized wetland area. The Local Government wanted only parkland (POS) in that location. Our client wanted to retain his home. Through carefully justified arguments and meetings with various senior staff at the Dept of Planning (WAPC) and Council, we were able to negotiate an outcome where he retained his home and his desired yield of 19 vacant lots.
