COUNCIL MINUTES TUESDAY 27 NOVEMBER 2012 The Town is also working on a Housing Design Study and it is proposed that the study will examine innovative designs to accommodate aged or dependent housing throughout the Town and further illustrate the benefits and opportunities for this housing type. In addition, other housing types suitable for aged residents such as supplementary accommodation (granny flats) will be explored in this design study. The Town is also undertaking a review of its Streetscape Policy which will review residential design standards to examine how such developments fit in with existing streetscapes, although it is noted that the site area reductions do not change other standards under the Codes such as open space and setback requirements. It is noted all other provisions of the Residential Design Codes relating to Aged or Dependent Persons Dwellings remain unchanged under this Policy. POLICY/STATUTORY IMPLICATIONS: The Residential Design Codes of Western Australia give scope to Councils to make local planning policies to reduce the minimum number of aged or dependent persons' dwellings where they want to enable additional aged or dependent persons' dwellings. The Policy Manual adopted under Town Planning Scheme No. 1 will be amended by introducing a new Policy 3.11: Aged or Dependent Dwellings which will apply to all developments for aged or dependent dwellings in areas. FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS: The cost of advertising the proposed Policy 3.11: Aged or Dependent Persons Dwellings is covered in the Town's budget. STRATEGIC DIRECTION: The proposed draft Policy 3.11: Aged or Dependent Persons Dwellings would contribute towards achieving the goal of 'Choice of Housing' and would assist with developing 'innovative housing developments in areas close to train stations, shops and businesses'. COMMUNITY CONSULTATION: In accordance with Clause 48 (3) of Town Planning Scheme No. 1, the Council, having prepared a draft planning policy, is required:- (a) (b) (c) to advertise a summary of the draft Planning Policy once a week for two consecutive weeks in a newspaper circulating in the Scheme Area, giving details of where the draft Planning Policy may be inspected, and in what form and during what period (being not less than 21 days) submissions may be made; where practicable, to notify those persons who, in the opinion of the Council, might be directly affected by the draft Planning Policy; and to forward a copy of the draft Planning Policy to the Western Australian Planning Commission for its consideration and advice in cases where the Council considers that the Policy may be inconsistent with other provisions of the Scheme or with state and regional planning policies.
