FOREWORD

The Metropolitan Region Scheme (MRS) sets out the broad pattern of land use for thewhole Perth Metropolitan Region. This Scheme is constantly under review to best reflectregional planning and development needs.

The Western Australian Planning Commission (WAPC) is the agency responsible for thisprocess.

Amendment proposals are made to change land-use 'reservations' and 'zones' in the MRSwhen considered necessary. The amendment process is regulated by the MetropolitanRegion Town Planning Scheme Act. That legislation provides for public submissions to bemade on proposed amendments.

For a substantial amendment (made under Section 33 of the Act), the WAPC considers allthe submissions lodged, and publishes its findings in a Report on Submissions. This report ispresented to the Minister for Planning and Infrastructure and to the Governor. TheAmendment is then scrutinised by both Houses of Parliament before it becomes effective.

PUBLICATIONSIn the course of each substantial amendment to the MRS, information is published under thefollowing titles:

Environmental Review ReportThe Environmental Protection Authority considers the environmental impact of anamendment to the MRS before it is advertised. Should it require assessment anEnvironmental Review is undertaken, and that information is available at the same time asthe Amendment Report.

Report on SubmissionsDocuments the planning rationale, determination of submissions and the WAPC'srecommendations for final approval of the Amendment.

SubmissionsComprises a reproduction of all the written submissions received on the proposedamendment.

Transcript of Public HearingsA person who has made a written submission may also choose to appear before a HearingsCommittee to express their views. All hearings are recorded and transcribed.

Submission (Please attach additional pages if required. It Is preferred that any additional information be loose rather than bound)

In our previous submission, we requested that the Bush Forever Plan boundary bemoved 200m west due to the fact that when the land in question was purchased, it had

been sown with oats, clover and rape seed. At the time, an onsite meeting was heldwith Sally Madden (Ministry of Planning), Bronwen Keighery (Department ofEnvironmental Protection) and Karen Clarke. At this meeting, Ms Madden verballyrefused our request, but commented that the land in question would never return to its

natural state as it had previously been cultivated. This comment applied to all theland in question except for an area in the north-west corner near Cockman's BluffWe reluctantly agreed to leave things as they were with the south boundary being304m, which enabled us to keep the bore hole situated in that comer. On receivingAmendment no 1082/33 to the Bush Forever Plan, we now find that the new boundary

is passing through pasture and vegetation and includes the land where our bore hole islocated. We would like to request an onsite meeting with all parties involved. I canbe contacted on 9454 5080.

Attention Huia Col Liver

Dear Huia

MRS Amendment No 1082/33Bush Forever and Related Lands

Thankyou for your letter dated 6 August 2004 regarding the above.

Bushforever site 375B at Serpentine is of particular interest to the PTA as itcontains a radio mast required for railway purposes.

Although` the land is UCL this agency has attempted in the past to have theland reserved for railway/radio mast purposes, to date this has not occurred.

The PTA doesn't object to the idea of bushforever sites however in light ofthe current usage this agency does object to the inclusion of site 375B in thebushforever program.

Not withstanding the above objection the PTA would be willing to discussoptions in order to maintain access to the radio mast, ie an easement orlicence document, which may still allow for the land to be a bushforever site.

I look forward to discussing and resolving the access and tenure issue withyou.

Yours faithfully

Attention Mr Ian Patterson Secretary

Dear Sir

Re: Metropolitan Region Scheme Amendment No. 1082/33Bush Forever and Related Lands

Draft Bush land Policy for Perth Metropolitan RegionStatement of Planning Policy No. 2.8

We are in receipt of your letters to the school dated 6 August 2004 and 23 August2004.

We are also in receipt of a Bush Forever Site Plane 498 sent by Mr John Hal leen on27 August 2004.

The writer has had extensive discussions with Mr Hal leen on Thursday 26 August2004.

The School is quite concerned that our freehold property is part of the Bush Forever(MRS) amendment and is shown on the drawing as a Bush Forever area.

The school is of the opinion that the school's land area should not be part of the BushForever designated area. The main reason for this is that our land is a cleared areawith extensive buildings and infrastructure for the running of a primary and secondaryschool. The school has been established on this current site since 1968 after movingfrom West Perth, where the school was originally founded in 1921.

The school is in no way opposed to the concept of Bush Forever and we are verythankful for the beautiful bushland that surrounds our school, however we do considerit to be totally inappropriate to have the school's freehold land site as part of this newscheme.

Metropolitan Region Scheme amendment No 1082/33

In basic principle I agree with the thrust of the planning policy related toBush Forever and related lands. I also believe that assertion is supported bymy own and family efforts in developing a previously ban-en property to onewith substantial growth of Australian native flora and fauna and to which 1will refer later in this submission_

However I believe it is also of utmost importance that sites declared asprotected lakes, wetland, bushland, dampland etc are actually in suchcategories before being so listed in rainless to property owners concerned.

It is to help correct one such registration error that this submissionion is made.

Lot 5 of 885 in Rockingham Council Precinct 6.My wife and I were owners of this approximately 6 hectare property forsome 27 years (1977 to 2004) until it was subdivided into two lots (Lots 301& 302) in May of this year. Lot 302 of some 4 hectares was sold and weretain Lot 301 of 2 hectares.

According to the bush forever site plan Lot 302 has been assessed as havinga strip of dampland North to South across the property. It has no such viabledampland and as stated this submission is made with the intention ofendevouring to correct that declaration.

The property in 1977When we purchased the property in 1977 there was a strip of paper barksand several banksias along with some acacias and substantial weedundergrowth about 20 metres deep across the block from north to south.Within this area of growth was the following,

several stables for horsesa yard and shelter for a cow and two calves in the middle of the area

- a fence line across the centre of the area evidently there to keep sheeppennedvegetable gardens and several fruit trees on the fringes

- there was also a water table dam (which appeared to have beendynamited to excavate and which was designed to allow the horses

and cattle to enter from one end to drink) which was about two metresdeep.

There was also a considerable amount of rubbish including wire netting, oldhousehold items etc in the centre portion of the site which we graduallycleared with our vehicles and tractor. In that degraded spot we planted someof our first trees and shrubs.

The property 1977 2004Intensive planting of a wide range of Australian native plant species suitableto the coastal environment was undertaken over the whole propertyparticularly from 1981 onwards following our establishment of a productionnursery specializing in Australian native plants. That nursery still operates(from Lot 301) and is a supplier to many local government authorities,government departments and private industry.

This planting took place over the whole of Lot 5 with the resulting growthevident throughout the site. Aerial photo's show the site as one of aprofusion of growth which could lead to a belief it is verdant or naturalbushland

Referring again to the water table dam. The dam held water up to threequarters full in mid winter in the early years with the level reducing to abouta half metre in summer.By the early 1990's the dam would hold at only half full in winter and wouldcompletely dry out in summer. Over the last 3or 4 years virtually no water inwinter and dry as a bone in summer.

The dam is a good indicator as to what happened to the grounds around thearea being shown as dampland. It is now completely dry year round to theextent that the few bankia's which were there gradually died and wereactually used for firewood Some of the few remaining paperbarks also diedor were stressed as were some of the trees and shrubs we hadplanted. Likewise the orchard plants in this locality were now requiring more regularwatering than in the early years.

Remembering that a two metre dam situated close to the centre of the site inquestion is now virtually dry year round it must surely indicate that thesurface land now earmarked as obnipland has gone way past that definition.

2

It is also relevant that in 1992 we received a letter from the then Minister forthe Environment advising that our property had been registered as having awetland lake on same. Following our reply denying any such wetland wewere further advised that there had been an error and the registration waswithdrawn. Copy of that correspondence is enclosed as an attachment to thissubmission.

FireIn 1994 a major fire hit the property from a fire started several properties tothe south west of Lot 5. This swept right through much of the propertyincluding. the growth in the designated dampland area and left a blackenedruin. However as part of our own plan for planting throughout the propertywe took the opportunity to further clear the site and plant afresh with someof our own species. We left a few of the paperbarks but many died or wereremoved.

A copy of the newspaper report regarding the fire (which was a substantialone) will also be included as an attachment to this submission if available.

The further clearing of parts of the paperbark area also enabled us to useparts of it for storing plants for large contract orders for the nursery and thiswas done with some fixed and some portable sprinkler systems of which afew are still in place.

Added together the aforementioned points maintain there is no longer (andhas not been for years) any sustainable dampland area on Lot 302.

IN SUMMARY

These are the things which have ultimately contributed to the destruction ofany dampland which may have existed on Lot 302 many years ago.

1. The multiple uses up to 1977 for the purposes of cattle, horses,sheep etc.

2. The continued use after 1977 for similar purposes and also for thepurposes of the nursery in holding horticulture stock requiringconstant watering, fertilizing, weeding and staff and vehicularaccess.

3. The introduction of newly planted species of plants not related todampland areas. Among such species were the Mel. Nesophilawhich has appearance similar to the paper barks.

4. The fire caused some destruction itself but it also caused us towiden all fire breaks including substantial areas to the north andsouth perimeters of the area now shown as dampland.

5. Finally the clear decline that has taken place in the water tablewhich has materially altered the area and which commenced theloss of species related to the dampland area some years ago.

CONCLUSION

I have maintained in the introduction to this submission that we support theprinciple of this Legislation. However to impose on a property owner adesignation for land which cannot be sustained yet will prevent reasonablecommercial or personal use of such land is wrong and unfair. If maintained,it is the type of decision which give those who would argue against suchlaws and regulations in general, scope for their attacks.

Finally we know that on-site inspection will show that these submissions aresoundly and reasonably based_ Indeed we claim that the environmentalimprovements which have been made over Lots 301 and 302 with a widerange of trees and shrubs enticing new fauna to the properties is far inadvance of a degraded dampland.

We ask that the Commission agree to withdraw the dampland designationfrom the area so designated on Lot 302 in accord with the authority providedin the regulations. In doing so we have discussed this submission with thenew owners who support the request and we understand will be makingtheir own personal submission.

If I can assist with further information please let me know. I see there isprovision for parties to appear at the hearings I feel this would only benecessary if it was likely that the request for Lot 302 to be removed from theregister is to be denied but if the Commission required it I would be quitewilling to appear.

Dear Mr & Mrs Harry

DRAFT ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION POLICY FOR LAKES ON THE SWANCOASTAL PLAIN

In March 1992 the Environmental Protection Authority published a Draft EnvironmentalProtection Policy (EPP) for Wetlands on the Swan Coastal Plain. This Draft Policy wasprepared in order to protect nominated lakes from filling, mining, pollution and drainage.

Following the public submission period for the Draft Policy, it became evident that the lakeforms to be protected, and the definition of pollution needed to be more clearly defined. Inorder to clarify these issues, and to check the maps and exclude any lake forms that weremostly dry at that time of year, the Environmental Protection Authority (EPA) carried out asurvey of lakes on the coastal plain between Moore River and Dunsborough.

From information gained during the "Lakes Survey", along with appropriate aerialphotography, the EPA's maps have been amended. The EPA's current records indicate thatyour property(s) contains a wetland nominated in the Draft Policy.

As an affected landowner, it is appropriate that you should be notified of the proposed Policyand provided with an opportunity to comment before the Policy is adopted by Government.Once adopted, the Policy will be formally reviewed within seven years. Accordingly, I inviteyour comments on the revised Draft Environmental Protection Policy for lakes on the SwanCoastal Plain, and welcome the opportunity to consider any matters which have not beenreviewed by the EPA,

The revised Policy text and maps are available for your inspection at Shire offices and at officesof the EPA. Please provide your comments to me by Friday 13 November 1992, and if youhave any queries please call Mr Vaughn Cox of the EPA on 222 7133 (Fax 322 1598).

Dear Mr/Ms Harry

Thank you for your recent letter regarding the draft Environmental Protection Policy for lakes onthe Swan Coastal Plain.

I have investigated your comments and confirm that you are quite correct that there is no protectedlake on your property, Lot 5 of 855 on Old Mandurah Road, Karnup.

The error which lead to your receiving a letter from Mr Pearce arose from your property being apart of a larger location upon which a lake was recorded.

I apologise for any inconvenience in this matter and confirm once again that your property will notbe included in the Policy.

Yours sincerely

That the Council;

(1) RECEIVES the correspondence dated 6 August and 12 August 2004 andaccompanying documentation from the Western Australian Planning Commissionand subsequent additional information relating to the Metropolitan Region Scheme(MRS) proposed Amendment No. 1082/33 `Bush Forever and Related Lands' andthe Statement of Planning Policy No2.8- Bushland Policy for the PerthMetropolitan Region, as 'Laid on the Table';

(ii) advises the Western Australian Planning Commission that the Council SUPPORTSthe proposed Amendthent No.1082/33 and the Statement of Planning Policy No.2.8- Bushland Policy for the Perth Metropolitan Region; and

(HO encourages the State Government, through the Western Australian PlanningCommission, to protect greater than 10% of each vegetation complex within the'Bush Forever' study area.

BACKGROUND:

Perth is part of one of the most biological diverse regions in the world. Bush Forever seeks toprotect 51,200 hectares of regionally significant bushland for protection, covering 26vegetation complexes. In doing so, it identifies 18 per cent of the remaining 28 per centremnant vegetation on the Swan Coastal Plain portion of the Perth Metropolitan Region(PMR). The plan aims to protect at least 10 per cent of each vegetation complex within the

Bush Forever study area. The majority of the landholdings are in Government ownership,with only about 9 per cent owned by private landowners.

Bush Forever Protection Areas (BFPA's) are proposed in an amendment to the MetropolitanRegion Scheme and a Draft Statement of Planning Policy. Both documents are designed toimplement and give statutory effect to Bush Forever, which was released by the Governmentof Western Australia in December 2000.

The Town of Vincent does not have any identified Bush Forever Protection Areas within its

municipal boundaries.

DETAILS:

Metropolitan Region Scheme Amendment No.1082/33 - 'Bush Forever and related lands'

The Town of Vincent received a letter dated 6 August 2004 and accompanyingdocumentation from the Western Australian Planning Commission (WAPC) relating to theMetropolitan Region Scheme (MRS) proposed Amendment No. 1082/33 'Bush Forever andrelated lands', requesting that the Town display the documentation for the advertising periodfrom 10 August 2004 to 12 November 2004.

An extract of the amendment report is as follows:

"Purpose

Page Break

The purpose of this major amendment is to:

Create a Special Control Area (Bush Forever Protection Area) and relatedprovisions in the Metropolitan Region Scheme Text;Establish a Special Control Area (Bush Forever Protection Area) in the MetropolitanRegion Scheme (MRS) over all Bush Forever sites; and

Reserve a number of Bush Forever sites for Parks and Recreation within the MRS."

The Amendment report identifies the areas to be included within the Bush Forever ProtectionAreas and Parks and Recreation Reserves. It also presents to government agencies and thepublic a discussion of the rationale for the proposed reservations and associated issues. Inaddition to the MRS Amendment, changes to the Metropolitan Region Scheme Text are alsoproposed. A copy of the proposed changes to the MRS Text is attached to this report.

Resulting from this amendment, there will be the creation of Bush Forever Protection Areas(BFPA's) as a planning tool to ensure future land use and development on sites identified inBush Forever is compatible with bushland protection and management. Measures such as thisproposed as part of the MRS Amendment will significantly implement the Bush Forever, giverecognition to the high conservation values of Bush Forever sites and will provideopportunities for lands to remain in private ownership.

The majority of the Amendment report relates to over 94 sites identified as Bush Forever sitesthat are Crown Reserves being rezoned from their existing zones (including such MRS zonesas Urban, Urban Deferred, Rural, Public Purpose, State Forest reservations, Water ProtectionZones) to Parks and Recreation' reservation zone. These proposals relate to numerouslocations within the Perth Metropolitan Region, including State Forests. The total area ofreservation subject to this amendment is 20,690 hectares (19,489ha of vegetated land). Thebreakdown of the various Bush Forever sites to be rezoned are tabulated below:

The significant outcomes of this amendment are that 79 per cent of the vegetated land areawithin Bush Forever sites will be reserved for Parks and Recreation and 100 per cent of BushForever sites will be protected within a Bush Forever Protection Area.

The above amendment is a major implementation initiative for Bush Forever and Will provideincreased planning security for Bush Forever sties. It provides a framework for the long termprotection and management of Bush Forever sites through a consistent decision makingprocess documented in the Statement of Planning Policy No.2.8: Bushland Policy for thePerth Metropolitan Region.

Bushland Policy for the Perth Metropolitan Region Statement of Planning Policy 2.8

The Statement of Planning Policy 2.8 (the SPP) functions as a supplementary document to theMRS Amendment Report for Amendment 1082/33 - 'Bush Forever and related lands'.

The SPP will perform six main functions:Identify specific land use controls;Identify bushland and planning uses requiring special consideration;Identify a range of implementation mechanisms;

Identify specific information requirements and planning assessments decision-makingcriteria;Identify site implementation categories based on site opportunities and constraints asidentified within the SPP; andSupport the preparation of local bushland strategies (as part of local biodiversitystrategies or similar).

The SPP will be divided into six parts, summarised as follows;

Part One (Citation) states that the SPP has been prepared under S.SAA of the Town Planningand Development Act 1928. It may be cited as the Draft Statement of Planning Policy No 2.8:Bushland Policy for the Perth Metropolitan Region.

Part Two (Introduction and background) provides an outline of the Policy aims, a synopsis onthe regional and national significance of Perth's bushland and the general policy contextwithin which this SPP was prepared.

Part Three (Application of the policy) identifies the relevant areas of bushland affected by theproposed measures, which will be affected by the provisions of the SPP, such as the BushForever Protection Areas and the local bushland.

Part Four (Policy Objectives) states the three policy objectives, which in summary are:

1. To establish a conservation system that is comprehensive, adequate andrepresentative of ecological communities of the Swan Coastal Plain portion of the

PMR.2. To seek to protect and manage bushland within the PMR, through a range of

mechanisms based on site opportunities and constraints and as a collective and sharedresponsibility and general duty of care on the part of government, landowners and the

community;3. To provide a policy and implementation framework for bushland areas of significance

that are identified for protection and management in the PMR to assist planningassessment, and decision-making process and to ensure a transparency of procedure,integrated and balanced environmental, social and economic outcomes, recognition ofexisting planning and environmental commitments and development and land usescompatible with bushland protection being supported and incorporated best-practice-performance based planning, design and management outcomes.

Part Five (Policy Measures) outlines the policy measures in the SPP that identify specificinformation requirements, issues requiring special consideration and more specifically,planning assessment and decision making criteria and processes that are required to beimplemented through the SPP. Within this section of the SPP, the policy measures discussedinclude the:

creation of Bush Forever Protection Areas, of which include 5 site implementationcategories;application of the local bushland policy measures outside the Bush Forever ProtectionAreas within the PMR.

Part Six (Implementation) states that implementation of this policy will occur on a day to dayprocess of decision making on strategic plans, conservation and management strategies,statutory schemes and subdivision and development applications. There will be no impact ofthe policy on existing lawful land uses and development.

The policy will be monitored on an ongoing basis and reviewed as required or at least withinfive years of its operation.

COMMENTS:

The proposed amendment to the Metropolitan Region Scheme and the associated Statement ofPlanning Policy will provide the statutory framework within which to implement the StateGovernment released Bush Forever document released in 2000. Such measures proposed tobe introduced to implement this will be through the creation of the Bush Forever ProtectionAreas and the rezoning of some Crown Reserves identified as Bush Forever sites, from theircurrent MRS zoning to 'Parks and Recreation' Reserves.

While the provisions of the MRS Amendment and the Statement of Planning Policy do notimpact any areas within the Town of Vincent, it will provide a concise and accessibledocument to use as a reference, to better understand the measures and tools that can be

implemented within the Town of Vincent.

TABLED ITEMS:

MRS Amendment No 1082/33 Bush Forever and Related Lands AmendmentReport and Amendment to Scheme Text both dated August 2004.Metropolitan Region Scheme Major Amendment No 1082/33 Bush ForeverAmendment Town of Victoria Park detailed Supporting Plans date stampedreceived 9 August 2004.Bushland Policy for the Perth Metropolitan Region Statement of Planning Policy2.8 Draft for Public Comment dated July 2004.

BACKGROUND:

The background to MRS Amendment No 1082/33 relating to Bush Forever RelatedLands is detailed in the Amendment Report as follows:

"Bush Forever is a Whole-of-Government Policy and Implementation Plan designedto :

identify, protect and manage regionally significant vegetation within the SwanCoastal Plain portion of the Perth Metropolitan Region:preserve the biodiversity of the region; andachieve a sustainable balance between the conservation of bushland anddevelopment within the Perth Metropolitan Region.

To achieve this aim, the Government has committed up to $100 million over the next10 years to ensure the protection of lands of the highest conservation value and toensure future generations will be able to appreciate and enjoy Perth's naturalheritage. The plan also includes a range of other implementation mechanisms thatrecognise existing commitments and approvals; provides for development thatdelivers an improved environmental outcome; and encourages off-reserve privateland management.

Bush Forever identifies 51,200 hectares of regionally significant bushland forprotection, covering 26 vegetation complexes. In doing so, it identifies 18% of theremaining 28% remnant vegetation on the Swan Coastal Plain portion of the Perth

- 105 -


Metropolitan Region (PMR). The plan aims to protect at least 10 per cent of eachvegetation complex within the Bush Forever study area.

The draft Perth's Bushplan was initially released in November 1998 and was openfor public comment for five months. More than 2,000 submissions were receivedover that period. The final report, entitled Bush Forever, was endorsed by Cabinetand released by the Government of Western Australia in December 2000. It wasalso endorsed by the Western Australian Planning Commission and theEnvironmental Protection Authority. Bush Forever has been endorsed by the currentGovernment (Cabinet Standing Committee on Environmental Policy, 24 June 2003)which found it to be a comprehensive and well considered program that satisfies theLabour Government's policy commitments on Perth's Bushland."

DETAILS:

The purpose of this major amendment to the MRS is to:

create a Special Control Area (Bush Forever Protection Area) and relatedprovisions in the Metropolitan Region Scheme Text:establish a Special Control Area (Bush Forever Protection Area) in theMetropolitan Region Scheme (MRS) over all Bush Forever sites; andreserve a number of Bush Forever sites for Parks and Recreation within theMRS"

The Bush Forever and Related Lands has been prepared as part of theimplementation of Bush Forever (Government of Western Australian, 2000)

The Amendment Report has two distinct parts:

"PART A : SPECIAL CONTROL AREAS BUSH FOREVER PROTECTION AREAS

Special Control Areas are intended to deal with issues that overlap zone and reserveboundaries where the requirements of the Special Control Area apply in addition tothe requirements of the existing zone or reserve. Where there are inconsistencies,Special Control Area provisions override local town planning scheme zoningprovisions.

As part of the Bush Forever and Related Lands, a Special Control Area called aBush Forever Protection Area ) will be introduced into the MRS. The Special ControlArea will overlie current Bush Forever sites and given statutory effect to BushForever. Any boundary changes to Bush Forever sites agreed to date will also beincorporated into the Bush Forever Protection Area. The total area of vegetated landincluded within the Bush Forever Protection Area is approximately 51,545ha. Thisfigure includes Negotiated Planning Solution conservation outcomes, and somelands outside Bush Forever sites that are vegetated and appropriate for inclusion, asthey are currently reserved for Parks and Recreation within the Metropolitan RegionScheme. Bush Forever Site 275 is not being proposed for inclusion in the BushForever Protection Area at this stage as it is subject to its own MRS amendmentprocess.

- 106 -


Initiation requires amendments to both the MRS (under the provisions of Section 33of the Metropolitan Region Town Planning Scheme Act 1959) and the MetropolitanRegion Scheme Text; and are based on the Special Control Area provisionscontained in Part 6 of the Model Scheme Text (WAPC, July 2000), which were giveneffect by the Town Planning Amendment Act 1999. This regulation requires thatlocal government town planning schemes comply with the Model Scheme Textprovisions once final government gazettal of the amendment occurs.

Bushland Policy for the Perth Metropolitan Region

A complementary Statement of Planning Policy No 2.8: Bushland Policy for the PerthMetropolitan Region will provide the detailed policy framework and requirements forBush Forever Protection Areas. It will also set out guidelines on particular matters tobe taken into account when considering development within a Bush ForeverProtection Area (BFPA).

This Statement of Planning Policy (SPP) has been developed to assist the WAPCand local government to deal consistently with development proposals occurringwithin Bush Forever Protection Areas. SPPs are statutory documents preparedunder the provisions of Section 5AA of the Town Planning and Development Act1928 and carry considerable weight at appeal.

The Statement of Planning Policy will perform six main functions:

Identify specific land use controlsIdentify bushland and planning issues requiring special considerationIdentify a range of implementation mechanismsIdentify specific information requirements and planning assessment decision-making criteriaIdentify site implementation categories based on site opportunities andconstraints as identified with the SPP.Support the preparation of local bushland strategies (as part of localbiodiversity strategies or similar).

PART B. RESERVATION OF SOME BUSH FOREVER SITES FOR PARKS ANDRECREATION

One aim of this amendment is to protect Bush Forever sites with the highest priorityfor protection through reservation for Parks and Recreation in the MetropolitanRegion. Scheme (MRS). This amendment also includes some additional areas overand above Bush Forever sites where added planning security is consideredappropriate through reservation for Parks and Recreation. This amendment is basedon the recommendations contained within Bush Forever Volume 1 Policies:Principles and Processes (Government of Western Australia, 2000) and should beread in conjunction with this report.

The Reservation of certain lands for Parks and Recreation as part of this agreementis a major strategic initiative to advance the implementation of Bush Forever and willgenerally include the following:

Lands proposed for Parks and Recreation in Bush Forever.-107-


Unvested/vacant Crown lands.Government owned/vested lands, including areas of State forest managed bythe Department of Conservation and land Management (DCLM) forconservation (excluding priority mineral resource areas).Implementation of Negotiated Planning Solutions for up-zoned lands, wherepossible.Additional lands not within Bush Forever sites (to maintain consistency withinthe MRS or for bushland management reasons)."

SPECIFIC PROPOSALS RELEVANT TO THE TOWN:

Proposal 5 of the MRS Amendment relates to the combined area of the KensingtonBushland at Kent Street Sandpit. The Scheme Amendment Report reads as follows:

"Proposal 5 Bush Forever Site No. 48

Transfer a portion of Crown Reserve No. 3694 from the Urban zone into the Parksand Recreation reservation

The proposal is to include a portion of Crown Reserve No 3694, within the Town ofVictoria Park, in the Parks and Recreation reservation (14.27ha). The reserve isvested with the Town of Victoria Park, which has leased the area to a privateorganisation for Municipal Endowment Recreation. It includes an area of bushlandand a sandpit.

The documented vegetation complex for this reserve is the Bassendean Complex;Central and South, of which 13% is proposed for protection under Bush Forever.

The proposed amendment area will be included within the Parks and Recreationreservation to provide a consolidated reserve. However, it is not included within theBush Forever site itself and therefore is not subject to Bush Forever implementationrecommendations.

The reservation of this area will provide added planning security and complement itsstatus under the local government town planning scheme, where it is reserved forParks and Recreation."

It should be noted that the only portion of Crown Reserve No 3694 the subject oflease is the portion leased by the Kensington PCYC. While the combined areawhich comprises the Kensington Bushland at Kent Street Sandpit is included with theScheme Amendment only part of the land was originally identified as a "BushForever" site which is consistent with the proposed Special Control Area shown onthe Scheme Amending documents (plan attached). Only the Bush Forever site itselfis subject to the Bush Forever implementation recommendations.

No acquisition of the land is envisaged as a result of the MRS Amendment, which isreflected in the following comments in the Amendment Report:

"Government-owned lands will not be acquired where they are vested Crownreserves or already managed for conservation. Therefore, this land category willremain in its current ownership or vesting arrangements and be managed by those

- 108 -


bodies for a conservation purpose, where existing arrangements are appropriate toensure the ongoing protection and management of these bushland areas."

Use or development of the subject land would be the subject of WAPC approvalonce the land was reserved "Parks and Recreation" as a result of finalisation of MRSAmendment No 1082/33. In addition the "bushland" area of the site defined by theSpecial Control Area (Bush Forever Protection Area) would be subject to theprovisions contained in proposed Statement of Planning Policy 2.8 "BushlandPolicy for the Perth Metropolitan Region". The key objectives of Statement ofPlanning Policy 2.8 are as follows:

To establish a conservation system that is, as far as is achievable,comprehensive, adequate and representative of the ecological communities ofthe Swan Coastal Plain portion of the PMR'..

2. To seek to protect and manage bushland within the PMR through a range ofmechanisms based on site opportunities and constraints and as a collectiveand shared responsibility and general duty of care on the part of government,landowners and the community.

3. To provide a policy and implementation framework for bushland areas ofsignificance that are identified for protection and management in the PMR toassist planning assessment and decision-making processes, and to ensure:

consistency, transparency and certainty for landowners, decision-makers and the broader community;

(ii) integrated and balanced environmental, social and economicoutcomes;(iii) existing planning or environmental commitments or approvals arerecognised;(iv) development and land uses which are compatible with bushland

protection and/or provide for an improved environmental outcome, aresupported and incorporate best-practice-performance-based planning,design and management outcomes."

COMMENT:

It is considered that the proposed Metropolitan Region Scheme Amendment isconsistent with Council's views in respect to the Kensington Bushland and KentStreet Sand Pit sites. Both sites are currently reserved "Parks and Recreation"under the Town of Victoria Park Town Planning Scheme No 1. The MRSAmendment proposes that they be reserved "Parks and Recreation" under theprovisions of the Metropolitan Region Scheme.

No acquisition of the land is contemplated as a result of the MRS Amendment andthe provisions of the Amendment proposing a Special Control Area only affect thoseportions of the site originally identified as containing remnant bushland anddesignated as a Bush Forever site. While the Parks and Recreation Reservation willinclude the whole of the Kent Street Sand Pit site only a portion of the sand pit site isincluded in the Special Control Area to reflect the extent of remnant bushland on thesand pit site.

- 109 -


The proposed Statement of Planning Policy 2.8 contains general and specific policymeasures for the areas containing regionally significant bushland and those policiesare consistent with the Town of Victoria Park Remnant Vegetation Management Plan2003. A copy of those policies are included as an appendix to this report.

Council's resolution of 11 July 2000, in respect of the Kent Street Sand Pit was "thatthe Kent Street sand pit site be reserved for passive recreational and culturalpurposes." The reservation of the land for "Parks and Recreation" under theMetropolitan Region Scheme is also consistent with the intent of a current studycommissioned by the Council being "Kensington Bushland Protection Study." Thepurpose of that study is to provide direction in respect to how the land surroundingthe Kensington Bushland can be used, developed and managed to ensurecompatibility with and protection of the remnant bushland.

The only significant implication in the reservation of the land for "Parks andRecreation" under the Metropolitan Region Scheme is that applications fordevelopment on the land will require referral to and determination by the WesternAustralian Planning Commission. The WAPC would need to be satisfied that thedevelopment is consistent with the purpose of the reservation and where suchdevelopment is within the Special Control Area (Bush Forever Protection Area) beingthe area containing remnant bushland, that such development is consistent withprovisions contained in Statement of Planning Policy 2.8 Bushland Policy for thePerth Metropolitan Region.

Given Council's views about the Kensington Bushland and Kent Street Sand Pit site,the outcomes of the Town of Victoria Park Remnant Vegetation Management Plan2003 the purpose of Council commissioning the Kensington Bushland ProtectionStudy and Council's resolution to utilise the sand pit for "passive recreational andcultural purposes" the proposed MRS Amendment is consistent with Council'sobjectives.

While it is not intended to lodge a submission in respect to the Draft Statement ofPlanning Policy 2.8 Bushland Policy for the Perth Metropolitan Region it does alsocontain provisions relating to Local Bushland and those provisions are included asan appendix to this report. It is considered that the Council has substantiallyaddressed the intent of those provisions relating to Local Bushland in the Town ofVictoria Park Remnant Vegetation Management Plan 2003.

It is therefore recommended that Council lodge a submission with the WesternAustralian Planning Commission that it supports MRS Amendment No 1082/33 inrespect of proposal 5- Bush Forever Site No 48 to transfer a portion of CrownReserve No 3694 from the Urban Zone into the Parks and Recreation Reservationand include portion of the land within the proposed Special Control Area (BushForever Protection Area).

Metropolitan Region Scheme Amendment No. 1082/33Bush for ever & related landsDraft Bushland Policy for Perth Metropolitan RegionStatement of planning policy No. 2.8.

I am in receipt of your letter of the 6th. August relatingto the above amendments and planning policies. You refer tomy land at Lot 5 Sawpit Road, Bullsbrook as being affectedby these future policies if the present proposals areaccepted.

I would like to inform your department that I boughtthis property in 1979 and when I purchased it this samehad been and was all cleared by bulldozer and burned to theground. In fact it can still be seen by the heaps of treesand sand which had been pushed together and burned clear.

The trees that are seen there now , except for some ofthe old trees along the little winter water way going frommidway on the south west boundary fence to the east whereit goes under Sawpit Toad, are all regrowth and is notoriginal bush as well as the portion you have shown by thelines on it. It can be seen from all the propertiesaround my property that they have been all cleared at aboutthe same time and after , and are noiq used as grazingproperties for cattle, horses etc., from which people geta good income.

A few years after I bought it the trees started growingagain . I intended to clear these new trees again andbecause the dozer got bogged and it took a lot of gettingout it did not get done, and the contractor did not come back.to do it and of course in places it is thick with undercovershrubs as well. However I do not believe that I should loseany of my land for either Bush For ever land or for parksand recreation purposes as may be suggested.

I feel sure and positive that the State and FederalGovernment has a very abundance of land to fullfill theirneeds for the community and requirements for what they arenow proposing to do without having to affect the propertiesand needs of some people's private properties which wework for a lifetime for the family pride to own a piece offreehold land in a country like Australia which I alwaysthought was supposed to be a free country

f. FITMENT FOR PUNNWGr l PKITRUCTURE

3 0 SEP 2004

I once had approximately 12 acres in Belmont whichthegovernment took from me because it was needed for

state requirements. Next I had a home in Colins StreetWest Perth and that was also lost to the government, because it

was also needed for state requirements. Now after all

that I have this one in Bullsbrook and it appears

that the government as if the government cannot see it right

for me to have the liberty of being able to retain it withoutperhaps puting restrictions on it also or taking it from me.

There are vast areas of bushland outside my piece of land

and to the West of my little property that could be used

as bushland if the government and its advisers want to use$tit, but no of course, of all the many thousands of acresaround, it must be mine that takes their fancy. Our familyhas owned it for almost thirtyfive years and now we get this

sort of news regarding it. It almost appears as though we

are getting hounded wherever we buy a property.

There are hundreds and hundreds of acres west of my property

which are also bushland wetlands I would be interested

to know if this is also proposed for bushland and wetlands.

because that is where the water comes from and finishes up

in my property, therefore causing the wetland referred to on

my land. I do not wish or even think of losing my and our

family's rights to the land that we bought to enjoy in such

and any way that we wanted to and carry on and live our

lifestyle with our childrens and grandchildren!s desires.

I would like to know please the full implicationsattatched to my property should any of the proposals in

question be attatched to my property.

My father left our native land where we were born

in 1926 to come to the land of opportunity (Australia)because of the politics and the way of life , left his wife

and two sons there battled and worked very very andextremely hard day and night for approximately 8 years

before he was financial enough to affopdd to bringhis wife and two children to join him inthis wonderful land,

always thinking he had done the right thing by leaving

a land of almost dictatorship to a free land with afuture for himself and his family which appeared to have

been for a few years. However, although my father

passed away a few years ago he is not here to know that

this land of the future (in the past) is now shaping

up to be a dictatorship of the future to do as you are told

or else it appears we in general and other law abiding

citizens of this state can no longer look forward with

pride and joy of what we own or what we presumed we

worked for and owned it with pride might in the not

too distant future be taken from us for pittance for

thestate.

I under no circumstances want to lose my land for anyprice at all however good an offer may be. I bought it becauseI have always loved the land and I want to enjoy it with mychildren and grand children and when I am gone my children

and their children may get the pleasure of our propertyfor as long as they live or wish to keep it.

I want my land exempted from the bush forever because Ifeel as I have already mentioned elsewhere in this contextthat with all the hundreds or thousands or millions of

acres of land owned by the government this government doesnot have in such an inexcusable manner as to restrict freehold

title holders of their holdings unless such lands are

required by government to be used for government requirementssuch as roads, highways, railways etc., where it becomes

a state necessity for the benefit for the population of the

state and country and whoever who uses it or the system.It would appear that before we know it we may well be placedwith a standover system instead of a democratic system inwhich I always thought it to be a free way of life for alllaw abiding people who work very and extremely hard to

achieve our way of life the way it should be. We pay the

government all that we are indebted with andat the end of the

day it now looks as though we may even he deprivedof what little some of us individuals have achieved for the

obenefit of parks and gardens for the enjoyment of otherswho perhaps have never done a hard days work in their lives.

I do not say there must not be parks and gardens but do not

turn peoplels pride and joy into public facilities.

I await your reply in reference and I look forward to your viewsTo whom it may concern please note that no word or meaningin reference in this context is made or written in offence

to its readers or anyone else in relation to its contents.It is strictly my view on the whole scenorio.

Yours fait; ully

METROPOLITAN REGION SCHEME AMENDMENT NO. 1082/33LOT 26, BROOK ROAD, KENWICK

I refer to your letter of 6 August 2004 and the proposal to declare my land part of theBush Forever Protection Area.

I have previously and repeatedly advised the WAPC, the State Planning Commission andthe relevant Ministers' offices of my opposition to any proposed restrictions on the use ofmy land.

My land has no conservation value. This was recognised recently by the Department ofPlanning and Urban Development in 1992.

I attach a copy of my last letter to the relevant Ministers. I have had no reply to thisletter. Can you please provide me an answer to this letter.

As I have said, I do not want inadequate financial compensation. I want to use my land,that I bought and have paid rates and taxes on for 35 years, for whatever I wish withoutinterference by the government. As I have said before, I will only consider a direct swapof my land for a similar block, satisfactory to me, within the same radius from Perth.This suggestion is entirely consistent with the Government's environmental offsetspolicy. If the Government wishes to restrain development of land, then it should providethe land holder with an offsetting replacement parcel of land to the satisfaction of thelandholder.

I do not object to your Bush Sites Forever policy, as long as it is restricted to its initialscope, namely, as a restriction on land use of government land by government entities.

Yours faithful

Dear Ministers

Lot 26 Brook Road, Kenwick Bush Plan

Mr Giuseppe Panetta425 Cambridge Street

FLOREAT PARK WA 6014

am the owner of Lot 26 Brook Road, Kenwick and have been so for the last 30 years.

I came to this country in 1951. I worked in the construction industry until I injured my back forthe final time. I never received any superannuation. Other than my residential home, thisproperty is my only significant asset. Accordingly, this property is a very significant investmentto me.

I understand that the Government is considering rezoning my property as a nature reserve aspart of the Bush Plan strategy or some other strategy. I have opposed this for some time now.

By letter dated 7 January 1992, the Department of Planning and Urban Development evaluatedthe "flora value" of my lot and advised me in the following terms:

"Having assessed your lot 26, it has been determined that the lot has no significant Boravalue and will not be reserved for conservation purposes nor purchased by the StatePlanning Commission. Therefore the zoning of your land will remain unaltered and maybe able to accommodate normally rural land use activity subject to the usual planning andenvironmental considerations."

I understand that the zoning of my lot has not changed, although under draft plans it is intendedto form part of a nature reserve, which I strongly oppose.

More recently, by letter dated 5 February 2001, I was advised by the Ministry of Planning that:

"Bush Forever is a major conservation initiative and seeks to identify regionally significantbushland for protection. However, it is understood that the above property has alreadybeen identified for Parks and Recreation and earmarked for future land acquisition by theState."

As far as I know, my property has not been rezoned and nor will it be. Further, as I have stated inprevious correspondence with the relevant departments/local government/Minister forPlanning, I have no intention of allowing the Government to buy back my property. Theproperty was purchased as a long term investment and I have paid rates and taxes on the

2.

property for 30 years without any benefit accruing to the property. I have no intention ofallowing the Government to buy this property for inadequate short-term focussed financialcompensation, the amount of which will be adversely affected by the progressive implementationof the Bush Plan strategy prior to any attempted acquisition.

As I have stated on numerous occasions previously without any comment in reply, if there is anyintention to rezone my land or prevent me from developing my land in accordance with itscurrent zoning, then the Government has one option as far as I am concerned. It can search itsland inventory and propose a 10 acre block within the same radius of the Perth GPO as a swap-substitute for my property. In my view, only this type of arrangement will provide me withappropriate compensation.

This issue has caused me significant stress. The stress has been compounded by the fact no onewants to take responsibility for the potential rezoning of my land. The local governmentauthority, State planning authorities and State and Federal Heritage authorities refer me to eachother and no one can provide me with a full or knowledgable explanation of what is going on andwhere I stand. My written correspondence goes unanswered. It is not surprising that I find theprocess upsetting.

Can you please provide a written response to this letter setting out:

1. What is the current situation of my property and its proposed situation?

2 What is the current situation and proposed situation of properties surrounding myproperty?

3. How does the Government explain concluding that my property now has conservationvalue when in 1992, after specific study, it determined that it had "no significant floravalue"?

4. If it is proposed to rezone my property, can you please provide me with a list of"substitute" properties (including all relevant details) within the same radius of the PerthGPO that the Government is willing to swap for my property?

5. Alternatively, if one of my 10 acre neighbouring properties is not earmarked as a "naturereserve", will the Government acquire such a block and swap it for mine? Alternatively,can I seek to purchase such a block and send the Government the bill (including stampduty)?

I would appreciate a prompt response.

Yours faithfully

Giuseppe Panetta

Dear Sir/Madam

Submission 17

METROPOLITAN REGION SCHEME (MRS) AMENDMENT No. 1082/33BUSH FOREVER & RELATED LANDS AND BUSHLAND POLICY 2.8

Thank you for the opportunity to comment on the amendment to the MRS regarding BushForever and related lands, including the draft Bushland Policy for the Perth Metropolitanregion.

It is understood the Amendment seeks to include identified Bush Forever sites into the MRSas Parks and Recreation reserves, create Bush Forever Protection areas and establish SpecialControl Areas over Bush Forever sites under the MRS. Bushland Policy 2.8 aims to providea statutory framework to ensure bush land protection and management issues are addressed.

Fremantle Ports supports the intent of the Amendment and Policy to protect natural bush landfor the Perth Metropolitan region and to provide a detailed policy framework in these areas.

Some years ago planning was commenced to identify a site for future port development tohandle container trade beyond the capacity of the Fremantle Inner Harbour. This planningwas undertaken by Fremantle Ports in conjunction with a number of other GovernmentAgencies including the Department for Planning and Infrastructure, and in consultation withrelevant Local Governments. As a result of this planning Cabinet endorsed Naval BaseKwinana as the site for future port development. The port site and its road and rail accesscorridors were subsequently identified in the Fremantle Rockingham Industrial AreaRegional Strategy.

More recently, as an outcome the Metropolitan Freight Network Review, Fremantle Ports, inconjunction with the Department for Planning and Infrastructure (DPI) has begun moredetailed planning for the development of an overflow container facility at the Kwinana Portsite. The development of the proposed overflow Outer Harbour facility has been identified ashaving high importance by the State Government.

Four port options and two transport link options have been identified in the planning process.The Rowley Road corridor would link with two of the port options and the Anketell Roadcorridor would link to the remaining two options. Both link options involve the extension ofthe roads through to the coast to service the future Port facilities. It should be noted thatplanning by DPI has identified that these links would also be used to provide improvedaccess to the northern and southern parts of the Kwinana Industrial area, regardless of whichport option was chosen. The link not required for port access would still be required foraccess to the industrial area, though constructed to a lower capacity standard. The extensionof Rowley Road through to the coast would cross the southern portion of Bush Forever Site346 (Site 346 identified on the plan attached).

Planning has progressed for the transport links to the point where a section of Rowley Roadand extension has been formally identified as a Planning Control Area by the DPI. A sectionof Anketell Road and associated extension is in the process of being identified as a PlanningControl Area and will be formalised soon. The Planning Control Areas will to help ensurethese important transport corridors are protected. As part of this process, the DPI has begunenvironmental assessments on the proposed Rowley Road corridor where it affects the BushForever Site.

Fremantle Ports and the DPI are incorporating the vision and principles of the StateSustainability Strategy in developing the Outer Harbour project including the key transportcorridors. In planning for the Outer Harbour project, the process also includes BushlandPolicy's aims of seeking to integrate and balance wider environmental, social and economicconsiderations. I trust that the landuse and port planning as described is consistent with MRSAmendment 1082/33 and the Bushland Policy 2.8.

Metropolitan Region Scheme Amendment Number 1082 / 33

Draft Bushland Policy for Perth Metropolitan Region Statement of PlanningPolicy Number 2.8

We wish to congratulate you on this proposed initiative, and would like to make thefollowing comment, so that it may be considered in preparation for the final document.

On Bush Forever Protection Area BFS 224 Plan No 1.5317 our property Lot 1Nicholson Road is colour coded as not affected by the proposed planning policy, howeverour land has a distinct grid line dissecting the block. The land is urban zoned and hasbeen included in the Bush Forever parks and reserve policy, as it abounds a reserve.

We wish to appeal against this recommendation as this land is cleared, has Kikuyucoverage, mature Olive trees and a NW Gum tree on the Nicholson Road fence line. Theland abounding the river must obviously remain in its natural state.

Our plans at present are to build a new home and art studio, and enjoy the propertiesnatural setting. We regard this property a sound investment for our retirement.

With this appeal we ask for the removal of the existing grid line, and request theboundary be looked at through the process of appeal, as it only affects our block and noothers in our immediate area.

We thank you for considering this application, and appreciate your early reply.

RE: METROPOLITAN REGION SCHEME Amendment No. 1082/33 &Bushland Policy for the Perth Metropolitan Region Statement of Planning Policy 2.8

Dear Sir / Madam,Please be advised that we are AGAINST any more amendments made to

the Metropolitan Region Scheme amendment No 1082/33 or the Bushland Policy PerthMetropolitan Region Statement of Planning Policy No 2.8.

We believe you have not adequately addressed the already existing problems withacquiring land from individual landholders.The following items need to addressed prior to any further amendments

WAPC re-zoning land they do not ownAffecting market values on land re-zoned by the WAPCBetter assessment of the amount of land being required within a land holdingProponent having the responsibility to prove what the WAPC says is on the landholdingNegotiated Outcome based on:

WAPC brief given to ValuersWAPC being the only purchaser for land zoned P&R or Bushland ForeverWAPC re-zoning the land then starting the Negotiated Outcome ProcessWAPC being Judge, Jury and Executioner with the Registered Owners of such

land

We are of the opinion that all of the above needs an independent inquiry as to better protectthe innocent party being the landowner.We can not re-zone land that we don't ownWe can not affect a value on somebody else's landWe can not take an Ariel photo and judge someone else's land

We can not make some one else pay for what we have doneWe can not negotiate with the WAPC after they have re-zoned the landWe can not be made to pay for what we assume is the benefit of all West Australians

We ask that you address these problems prior to making more problems such as51,200 Hectares of regionally significant bushland and $100 million dollars over 10 yearsthat the government has committed for funding which equates to $19,500.00 p/hectarebased on Item 2 part B in amendment No 1082/31 I have developers wanting to pay me$450,000.00 p/hectare had the WAPC not interfered in OUR land.Introduction and Background Policy2.8 (Item 2.30YOU STATEAll West Australians a high quality of lifeState Planning Framework is at the top of the policy hierarchy51,200 hectares of regionally significant bushlandBush land is an important component of biodiversity

Such valuable significant land yet you want to pay an average of $19-,500 p/hectare

Policy Objectives 4.2Collective and shared responsibility

Purchase the land prior to re-zoning and do what you wantYet you offer the landowner insignificant money for their land

Policy measures 5.1(a)Ensure that all reasonable steps have been taken to minimise any adverse impactsPolicy measures 5.1(A)Environmental Management Plan should be prepared by the proponent

Again purchase the land prior to re-zoning and do what you want.Which costs the proponent between $10,000 20,000.00 for an Environmental Study toprove what WAPC should all ready know because that is the supposed reason for wantingthe landIf the WAPC are requiring the land you would assume they have done a factualEnvironmental study why would the proponent need to provide evidenceDon't acquire the land without factual evidence, you rely on ARIEL PHOTOGRAPHYonly, as in our case no study has been done or requested by the WAPC.

Policy measures 5.1(iv) Matters to be consideredSubject to further analysisPolicy measures 5.1(v) Matters to be consideredOccur only with the agreement of the WAPCPolicy measures 5.1(vi) Matters to be consideredBFPA may be subject to Planning or environment controlsPolicy measures 5.1(vii) Matters to be consideredGeneral presumption against further development

Further RESTRICTIONS and still only average $19,500.00 p/hectareYou continue more legislation and make the individual landowner pay on behalf of thecommunity as a wholeYour August 2004 Bush Forever Newsletter states on the front pageTo date $27million has been spent by the WAPC acquiring 600 hectares of land"which equates to $45,000.00 p/hectare I really need to buy land at the same at which you

can"

We have been offered $1.3m for 120 acres in Fonestdale adjoining Canning vale as per theWest Australian Newspaper 2nd October 2004 the fastest growing suburb in WA from the

WAPC

The WAPC already has one court case pendingYou have 5,400 individual landholders involved in this amendmentHow many court cases do we as ratepayers have to fund?

Governments are their for us to act on our behalf not to dictate to one individual land ownerwhy he/she should except a massive loss on behalf of what is assumed valuable land to the

community

We understand that things are required for recreational purposes but to make US PAY FORIT IS OUTRAGES if the community requires this land then the government needs toacquire it from us on a basis of what we could have achieved on the open market had therebeen no interference from the WAPC at the time when we choose to sell the land JUSTLIKE ANY BODY ELSE IN THIS WORLD.

Another issue has been identified since our earlier telephone conversation and assuch, I wish to take this opportunity to seek your advice and support. In order forthe City to obtain feedback from its CAC and JC's post presentation and in orderfor the JC's to subsequently endorse the City's submission with respect to thematter, the City will require a minor extension to the DPI's submission period.

The City expects to have its submission considered and endorsed by the JC's at itsmeeting on 23 November 2004 and therefore finalised and sent to the DPI on 24November 2004, approximately 1 and a half weeks after the formal submissionperiod closing on 12 November 2004.

SUBMISSIONMetropolitan Region Scheme Amendment No .1082/33


I Purchased this property 10 years ago .Before I Purchased this property I went andenquired at the Shire of Armadale to see what activities I could carry out on this land.My intention was to eventually clear the block and put pasture in to graze cattle to earnpart of my income. The Shire assured me this could be done.

Approximately three years ago I was devastated when I received a letter to say that part ofmy property was to be in the Bush Forever Plan, and I could no longer clear or put cattleon that portion of land.

In 2002 I negotiated with the Department of Planning and Infrastructure to purchase thatportion of land I could no longer use as I had planned, the offer they put to me was wellbelow market value. I rejected their offer.

I strongly object to the Bush Forever Zoning on my property and would like an exemptionfrom that zoning.Should that not be, compensation should be offered for the restrictions placed on me forthat part of my property.

Re: "Bush Forever" your ref: 809-2-1-77P + 1, map ref: 360, MetropolitanRegion Scheme Amendment no: 1082/33

I am writing on behalf of John Henderson & Heather McDougall of 11 PureSteel Lane, Mundijong WA. (Lot 2 vol/folio 218/417) who purchased the aboveproperty through me on the 10/11/2003.

It has been brought to my attention by John & Heather that within the last fewmonths their property has been placed under a new metropolitan regionamendment scheme no: 1082/33 namely "Bush Forever" and that they haveon their property "Regionally Significant Bushland".

The affected area of the property being frontage to Mundijong Road of 21m to7.5m over 198m in length,, quite a significant area of land. Moreover when youtake into account the new fence line and new firebreak separation this has aserious impact on the remaining land area and future re-sale of the property.

The existing trees/scrub contained in the affected area consists of sparselyplanted trees introduced by the previous property developer in 1999 duringthe subdivision process.

We would respectfully request an appointment be made with myself and theowners of 11 Pure Steel Lane, Mundijong, whereby a suitably qualified personfrom your department be made available for a site inspection.

Draft Bushland Policy for the Perth Metropolitan Region

I should like to make a submission relating to the Kings Park bushland, but amhampered by not having a plan on a sufficient scale to consult.

The plan issued with the Bush Forever draft is on too small a scale to be related toKings Park boundaries, and that issued by the Authority (copy enclosed) is onlyapproximate.

I also enclose a copy of my critique of the Auditof the Authority's "managementplan's; and have marked in red comments pertinent to the Bushland.

I should be most grateful if you could provide me with an accurate map of the KingsPark Bushland, and would be glad to cover any expenses involved in its preparation.

Yours sincerely

Roger N. Hilton

AN UNACCEPTABLE MANAGEMENT PLAN, A FLAWED AUDIT OFPUBLIC SUBMISSIONS, AND A GOVERNMENT PEOPLE'S PARK

THE PLAN

The retiring CEO of the Botanic Gardens and Parks Authority is quoted as having heard it

said that "you cannot lift a spade in Kings Park without someone worrying". Why should

this be so? It is because there is an element of secrecy surrounding Park operations of which

the failure to provide any detailed management plan is the most obvious symptom. Thus the

Public is uneasy when trees disappear overnight without notice, and, when buildings arise

without the. notification required under the BG&PA Act 1998. Otherwise excellent

developments are always liable to giv_e rise to suspicion when they happen unannounced.

Some information-was available from the Bushland Management Plan 1995-2005. This was

part of the First Management Plan, the rest of that plan being the Framework Plan for the

Developed Areas 1996-2006 which covered only the north-eastern part of the Park.

Considine & Griffiths added the rest of the developed areas in the Kings Park Conservation

Plan published (but not publicised) in 2000. With its clear maps, systematic treatment of the

seven precincts of the Park, and use of the Conservation buzzword, it would have been the

obvious-template for the new Plan. -

Incomplete as the First Management Plan was, it did contain much more information than the

new Plan. The latter is just a coloured brochure of which the text is merely a version of the

Statement of Strategic Policies and Guidelines, together with elements of a Development

Plan in the section dealing with the next five years. The map is no more than that offered to

tourists. The brochure is not just an incomplete plan; it is not a management plan at all.

The draft of this new Plan was released in July 2003 and, after a three-month period of public

comment and analysis, went to Audit in October 2003.

THE AUDIT WA,

When it had become evident that the minimum legislative requirement for advertising had,

not surprisingly, led to miniscule public response, the Authority acted to publicise it. It was

too late to put displays in the Park's public areas, as had been done over several weeks for the

Framework Plan in 1996. So the time-honoured proforma-comment response was used,

guaranteed to be quotable as at least partial support so long as there is something with which

3

Three times (comments 86, 87, 88):

"KPGB boundaries were established in the 1996 Bush land Plan and nochange is intended."

The 1996 Plan specifically states that its maps are approximate. Also it has management

zones that are not in the present plan, but does not have the transitional beds of the present

plan. We are asking for an accurate and up-to-date map.

Two times (comments 30 & 31):

"The Plan expands upon principles and activities outlined in the Kings ParkBushland Plan 1995-2005 and the KPBG Framework Plan 1996-2006. Itallows for adaptive managenlent with up to date inforrnation providing newinitiatives and direction."

In fact, the Plan is contracting the Bushland and the Framework Plans to nothing, and then

saying that if you have no plan you don't have to change anything! And you don't have to be

bothered with Public Comment either!

Even when the Auditors appear to acquiesce and say "Yes", closer examination shows this

often means "No". For example:

Comment 47. The sites of the 'Plant Conservation Centre', 'Retail Outlet', old Bowling

Club, Parkland adjacent to Currie Hall, and Water Garden all remain unmarked.

Comment 49. "Plan amended to highlight natural and cultural heritage" is a meaningless

response. The same words are used to refer to the Honour Avenues under Comment

256.

Comment 164. As there is such a path, the amendment is not required.

Comment 200: There is no reference to Sugar Gums.

Comments 332, 333, 335. I can't find a reference to home gardening in the final plan.

The overwhelming impression is that the form and content of the Plan were determined at the

outset and the Audit is not an investigation of real management issues, but simply the

justification to be expected when the authors are the amelitors.

THE PEOPLE'S PARK

For the first 126 years of its existence Kings Park was run by the State Government as a Park

for the People. It did well, with the people watching and protesting if the Government of the

day seemed to threaten the Park's integrity, especially by any attempt to excise Park land. In

Planning Policy 2.8Ref.4 Bush Forever protection areas, Community Guide

Background

Bush Forever Site/BFS 217 covers a total area of 10.95ha and is made up of 12

Special Rural Building Blocks in the John Farrant Estate Subdivision in

Gooseberry Hill/Shire of Kalamunda. Each building block in the subdivision has

an average size of around 1.05ha and therefore only just barely full fills the

minimum requirements for special rural zoning, which stipulates a minimum

block size of lha. The entire subdivision is sold out and in BFS 217, only 3 of

the 12 blocks have not yet been built on (Lot 34, 44, 45).

The subdivision has brought with it the standard type of infrastructure associated

with estate development, including bituminised roads, bituminised battleaxe's,

concrete kerbing, gas, above ground power, telephone, extensive fencing, storm

water drainage, major clearing of the individual building blocks, firebreaks and

the presence of large numbers of domestic animals.

One of the requirement for development approval for the John Farrant Estate,

was the setting aside of extensive Public Open Space areas, these areas include

almost all the creek lines in the estate. In addition during the 1960's, 116 acres

along the escarpment, east of the special rural subdivision, were set aside for

conservation. These 116 acres of the former John Farrant Farm, are now part of

the Darling Range Regional Park.

The John Farrant Estate, which encompasses the BFS 217 was, as mentioned

above, originally a farm and for over a hundred years in the hands of the Farrant

family and today the 5th Farrant generation still reside on the estate . The

property was used mainly for grazing cattle and had been cleared extensively for

this purpose. The area encompassing BFS 217, was not exempted from these

clearing and grazing activities. In fact BFS 217 was used as a holding area for

the bulls and included a darn adjacent to the creek.

2

Classification of BFS 217 and criteria for Bush Forever Site

According to Ref 1 Page 58 BFS 217 is classified as a part of"Perth's

Greenway 111. According to Ref 1 Page 31 Greenways are defined as

"Networks of land containing linear elements that are planned, designed and

managed for multiple purposes including ecological, recreational, cultural,

aesthetic, or other purposes compatible with the concept of sustainable land

use". Furthermore "Greenways can also encompass drainage corridors, creek

lines and road verges" and should support a wide variety of uses, for example

"they can incorporate best practice water sensitive design for storm water

management to maintain water quality and protect wetlands; and can perform

habitat and recreational functions ".

For areas to be considered as future Bush Forever Sites/BFS, the draft stipulates

certain criteria that must be applied.

Ref 4 Page 2 states under the title "How are sites selected?"

- The size, shape and condition of the bush land. Large, compact areas are

preferred to isolated small areas.

- Bush land has 10 per cent representation of a particular vegetation type

Bush land contains rare or threatened species or threatened communities.

- Other issues taken into consideration include: the financial resources of

the WAPC and social and ECONOMIC VALUES

Ref. 3 Page 11 Art. 5.2.4 Point 1, states that the areas must be "Regionally

significant bush land within areas identified as Rural Lands on Map 1.

Ref. 3 Page 11 Art. 5.2.4 Point 1 (ii) stipulates furthermore that the areas should

"Support rural - living subdivision for conservation and/or rural development

(including a single residential building envelope in areas NOT already

committed or approved for development, having due regard to the best practice

criteria identified in Schedule 2 at the rear of this Policy". In the abovementioned Schedule 2 Page 21, the criteria are defined as follows:

Art. (i)"There is an overall bush land retention benchmark of generally

not less than 90 per cent for each lot or for the whole site where multiple

lots are PROPOSED except where there are cleared, degraded or less

intact areas, which should be developed first".

3

Art. (ii a.) "No clearing, grazing or development shall be permitted

outside a designated development/building envelope guide plan, except

where it is associated with essential services or infrastructure".

Art. (ii b.) "Subdivision and development shall be in accordance with an

approved subdivision/development guide plan, which shall include the

location of development/building envelopes and one dwelling per lot".

Art. (iii) Lot sizes will be considered on their merits, with an emphasis on

the creation of large bush blocks, generally OVER 10 HECTARES.However, lot sizes will be dependent upon, but not limited to,

consideration of the following:

a. the conservation values and characteristic of the site

b. a presumption AGAINST intensive rural living subdivision (i.e. lots

generally BELOW 4 hectares, except where it forms part of amitigation/offset package designed to secure an improvedenvironmental outcome, such as an average of lot sizes, the ceding of

land as a conservation reserve for management by an appropriate body,

the creation of smaller lots within cleared or degraded areas combined

with a larger lot for the core conservation area, cluster style rural

subdivision and development and/or it is in accordance with existingplanning or environmental commitments or approvals;

c. the current size of the subject lot and surrounds or approvals; and

d. other planning and environmental considerations, including fire

management.

BFS 217 does not full fill a single point of the above criteria, furthermore if this

site should continue to be included in the BLF Draft, any future development

would be made impossible e.g. sheds, stables etc. and this problem applies

especially to those three remaining vacant lots (34,44,45).

The John Farrant Estate is a fully approved, existing, and virtually fully

developed/built up subdivision of approx 250 acres/100ha. The possibility ofretrospectively applying BLF criteria to an existing subdivision is not included

in the BLF Draft. It must be remembered that the lot sizes are only an average of

1.05 ha in size and therefore only just barely classify as Rural Land. No thought

has been given to the implications of applying the BLF criteria to such small lots

and especially not to the fact that 9 out of the 12 lots are developed and built on.

Attempting to apply criteria that were developed for lot sizes generally above 10

ha, to a lot size of lha brings amongst others the following problems:

4

- The establishment of building envelopes is impossible as the majority of

the building blocks are already developed and built on

- The sale price of the individual lots, took into account the views and

terrain features that the individual lots afforded and not the location of a

pre defined building envelope.

Any retrospective application of building envelopes as per the BLF Draft

would have a major negative effect on the value of the affected properties

- Applying a bush land retention rate of generally not below 90 per cent,

would mean with a lot size of lha, only 0.1 ha or 1'000 square meters

could be cleared and developed

The fire management/safety requirements, for special rural zoning, in the

shire of Kalamunda stipulate a boundary of 20 meters must be cleared

around ALL buildings. A circle with a radius of 20 meters covers an area

of 1256 square meters and does not include one square meter ofbuilding

space, or the mandatory 3 meter wide fire breaks around the perimeter of

each lha building block or any access roads.

- Storm water drainage and the effects it has on creek lines, is already given

and therefore the application of Greenway criteria, as stipulate on page 2

of this submission, is made impossible by the fact that the area is already

developed.

Furthermore, it must be noted that during a meeting with the Dep. of

Development and Infrastructure on the 28 of September 2004, it was mentioned

by a departmental officer present, which included the BF manager Mr Kieron

Beardmore, that the inclusion of BFS 217 was based on old, pre subdivision

aerial photographs which showed only one house (Lot 19). Furthermore it was

stated, that no onsite inspections of the area were made and instead, all

vegetation estimates and suitability of the area, were based on estimates from

the aerial photographs.

It was also mentioned several times, that the Department was having major

problems in finding suitable areas in the Forrestfield Complex that meet the BFS

criteria. As a result, the Departments willingness to discuss the possible removal

of BFS 217, was unrealistic, as they already could not fill the mandated quotas

for this area of the Metropolitan area. These statements of the Department ofPlanning and Infrastructure, during our meeting in September 2004, were also

stated to Mr. Athol Farrant by the previous BF Manager Mr. David Nunn in

1998.

5

The fact that BFS 217:

Is not pristine bush land, but instead former grazing land with only very

small scattered remnants of native plants.

Due to the former grazing activities, BFS 217 is severally contaminated

with wild oats and extensive areas covered with watsonias and veldt grass.

That the estimates of plant diversity were grossly overestimated and

therefore incorrect.

- The site does not encompass any designated creek lines, wetlands or

wildlife corridors.

Extensive clearing has taken place, associated with the construction of

major homes, fire breaks, access roads and the clearing of large areas

around the homes to meet the Shire of Kalamunda's firemanagement/safety regulations, well in excess of the permitted 10 percent

in the BF Draft.

Is an existing subdivision and not a proposed or possible futuresubdivision, as required by the BF Draft.

The possibility of a retrospective application of the BF Draft to anexisting subdivision is not included in the Draft.

No consideration of the negative effect on the "economic value" of theaffected properties and which would result in major compensation claims

by the owners.

The extensive fencing, individual firebreaks, construction of roads etc.

and the presence of a large number of domestic animals, including in one

case, grazing sheep (Lot 34). Prevents BFS 217 from being classified as

"significant bush land" or meeting the criteria of Greenways as outlined

on page 2 of this submission.

None of these facts were able to sway the officers at the meeting toreconsider the inclusion of BFS 217. On the contrary, it was mentioned over

and over again, that the mandated quota for the Forrestfield Complex couldnot be met and this prevented any flexibility on the side of the Department.

It is important that the affected land owners and the community as a whole,

feel that the public servants responsible for the BF Draft, respect the criteria

6

and guide lines set forth in the draft and the entire matter is not reduced to an

exercise of meeting "quotas". If insufficient suitable areas can be found that

meet the required BF criteria, it must accepted as a fact of life. Instead of

trying to squeeze unsuitable areas into the draft or interpreting the BF Draft

criteria in ways they were never intended.

Conclusion

In conclusions we, the signatories to this submission, request that based on

the above mentioned arguments, BFS 217 be removed from the BF Draft and

that the existing status of the Special Rural Zoning remains unchanged with

no further restrictions.

To assist you making your decision, please find attached a series (23) of

recent photographs, including aerial photographs, which clearly show the

level of development and clearing that has taken place in the area of BFS

217.

We thank in advance for your reply and remain,

Yours sincerely,

RE: METROPOLITAN REGION SCHEME AMENDMENT No. 1082/33

I support the amendment, provided that it does not extend to existing rural/ semi rural/ special ruralproperties, which are well suited to future urban development.

The future rezoning of said properties is beneficial when considering that rezoning to low densityresidential will slow the greater problems of urban sprawl.

These properties should not be considered for inclusion in the MRS pursuant to Amendment No.1082/33 of the Metropolitan Region Scheme.

Yours sincerely,

Dear Sir/ Madam

RE: METROPOLITAN REGION SCHEME AMENDMENT NO 1082/33

We the undersigned wish to herewith record our strongest possible objection to theproposed amendment to the Metropolitan Regional Scheme affecting the riverforeshore parallel to Swan View Terrace, May lands.

Our principal concern is the opening of the foreshore to the public will expose us toburglary and vandalism on two fronts as happened to the residents of Stone Street acouple of years ago when the access for the construction of the sewer along their rearboundary.

We boat owners who have mooring parallel to the bank have for years had our boatsbroken into and movable parts and gear stolen. We can't move further off the bank asthe navigational channel is close to this side of the river.

The width of the proposed reserve& is narrower than is indicated on propertydimensions. Within fifty years of the original subdivision five metres of the bank hasbeen washed away. Some residents have erected foreshore retaining walls which haveslowed this erosion, but the erosions although slower is continuing.

Several portions of this proposed foreshore reserve have been acquired by the StatePlanning Commission through subdivision. These areas have been cleared of noxiousweeds, vermin and fire hazard by the adjoining owners with absolutely no assistancefrom any public authority.

I'm sure the bureaucrats proposing this land grab have given little thought to the valueof the land. Although it may be swampy weed infected land it has a premium valuewhen its access to the river is considered by the adjoining owners land. The value toadjoining owner is far more than the average price for square metre envisaged by thebureaucrats. A comparison between canal frontage lots and no canal frontage lots inMandurah can prove my point.

Finally the existing cycle way and foot path through the Baigup Wetlands is not onthe river bank and emerges onto Swan View Terrace and I don't believe the publichave any problem with its present location.

The SecretaryWestern Australian Planning Commission469 Wellington StreetPERTH WA 6000

Dear Sir/Madam,

SUBMISSION ON PROPOSED AAMENDMENT 1082/33METROPOLITAN REGION SCHEME

I am the registered proprietor of 15 Swanview Terrace, May lands ("the Property")that is affected by the proposed amendment 1082/33 to the Metropolitan RegionScheme ("the Scheme").

A significant portion of the Property is currently reserved for parks and recreationunder the Scheme. The proposed amendment will extend the reservation zonefurther inward from the Swan River, by 1.9 m along the northern boundary of theProperty. Enclosed is a photocopy of certificate number 81598, issued in respect ofthe Property, showing

(a) the area of the Property currently reserved for parks and recreation;

(b) the area of the Property that will be affected by the proposed extension of thereservation.

I am opposed to the proposed extension and raise the following points for yourattention and careful consideration:

(a) The extension of the parks and recreation zone unnecessarily infringes uponmy rights and needs as the proprietor of the Property. The proposedextension is small relative to the area of the Property already reserved anddoes little if anything to advance the objectives of the Scheme;

(b) The extension would limit the development that is presently planned for theProperty (see paragraph (d)) and would have a consequent economicdetriment to myself. It is my belief that the loss that would be suffered,would not adequately be covered by the compensation that may be available(assuming it is available);

(c) The current reservation constitutes a substantial portion of the Property and ispresently large enough to allow public usage and access to the riverfront andto achieve the conservation and environmental objectives of the Scheme;

2

(d) The Property was acquired by my late mother Caterina Valenti in 1958. Ourfamily has lived on the Property as our principal residence ever since. Overthe years our family has gone to considerable effort to landscape and improvethe Property and we have a sentimental attachment to it. It is the intention ofmy son, daughter and myself to construct additional accommodation upon theProperty so that we may all live on it. The proposed extension of thereservation would limit our proposed development.

I would like to draw your attention to the decision of the Minister for UrbanDevelopment and Planning in 1979, not to allow a proposed amendment to theScheme at that time, that would have extended the reservation zone in the Maylandsarea. After careful consideration and review of the reports and submissions ofaffected landowners, the Metropolitan Region Planning Authority and TownPlanning Department, the then Minister upheld the appeals of affected landowners.In reaching this decision, the Minister considered that the previous reservation wassufficient and was large enough to allow public access. Furthermore, the Ministeralso expressed the view that the rights and needs of the landowners should be givengreater consideration. Enclosed is a copy of a letter from the Minister to the ownerof 13 Swan View Terrace, dated 18 July 1979, outlining the decision of theMinister.

I echo the views and reasoning of the Minister in 1979 and believe they should begiven considerable weight in your final determination of the current amendmentproposal.

I trust that you will give due consideration to this submission and would hope thatyou will reconsider your position to amend the zoning of the property in light of thepoints raised.

Yours faithfully,

Flora Maria Franzinelli

July 18, 1979

I refer to your appeal against the amendment to theMetropolitan Region Scheme reserving portion of your

land for parks and recreation, and to your letter ofJune .21 requesting advice :of the situation.

I have recently received a report from The MetropolitanRegion Planning Authority and the Town PlanningDepartment on the appeals; and have determined touphold the appeals and modify the amendment, bytransferring that portion of your property reserved

for parks and recreation by the amendment, back to

the urbanZ( I

pne.

In my con4deratiOn of the appeal, I was not satisfiedthat the reasons advanced by The Metropolitan RegionPlanning Authority for the reservation of the land weresufficient, and felt the previous reservation wasquite large enough to allow public access, and therights and needs of the owners should therefore begiven more consideration.

I trust my decision meets with your favour.

Yours .sincerely,_

STER FOR URBAN DE LOPM=AND TOWN PLANNING

Dear Ian Patterson

Thank you for supplying all the attachments with a letter dated 6th August 2004.

I was initially confused by your letter in bold print the heading stated MetropolitanRegion Scheme Amendment No 1082/33 and in a heading later you refer to the MRSAmendment No 1982/33.

I hereby submit my concerns in relation to MRS Amendment No 1082/33 and the BFPAplanning policy No 2.8.

Any future changes of ownership to this property will be influenced by the MRSAmendment No 1082/33 and this will directly effect any future compensation for the landthat I brought in 1967. Who is likely to buy a property that has a covenant that provideslimitations on its use?

I feel strongly that the proposed plan will mean that almost 1/3rd of my property will bedesignated as Bush Forever, which basically ensures that I will not be able to sell thisportion of land at any future time. There is already a substantial amount of crown reserveland at the rear of my property (36860/10130), which could be used as Bush ForeverProposal 91 Bush Forever, site No 471B. I would object to my property being subjectedto becoming part of a special control area Bush Forever protection areas (AmendmentReport, p38).

There is no incentive provided for me to support any change to the re-zoning of my land.It places extra pressure on me as a landowner, at a time when I can least respond. Myimpression is, that this policy should be put in place for future developments; not directedat current landowners. Why does the government need an extra 9% of land which isowned privately, for the extension of the Bush Forever protection area? I think thegovernment has a majority of significant bush land that can be placed under the BFPAwithout hindering the legal entitlements of the individual landowner.

With all due respect I am not in favor of supporting the proposed changes to my land. Ihave enjoyed the preservation of the bush land on my property, without the limitations ofany future covenant.

Yours sincerely

SUBMISSION

We, the owners of Lot 19 John Farrant Drive Gooseberry Hill, objectto the inclusion of the property in the Bush Forever Protection AreaBES217 (Plan No 3.1870) SCA No 1 and request that it be removed fromthe Plan.

The inclusion and extent of SCA Nol in the BushPlan would appear tohave been based upon an Aerial Survey carried out during 1994. Thenorthern boundary of Lot No 19 in the proposed SCA Nol shows theoutline of the earthworks for our home (which was constructed fromMarch to September 1994), but does not show further, subsequent,clearing of the bush for driveway, swimming pool, leach drains orfirebreaks.

The Part B Descriptions of the Perth's BushPlan IndividualBushPlan Site Description (December 1998), indicates that no detailedsite investigations had been carried out and that no significant floristictypes had been sampled or identified.

The total area of Lot 19 is 10,243 sq m, of this, some 4,600 sq m has beencleared and developed for our home, including buildings, paved areas,driveway, swimming pool, leach drains and formal gardens. A further1,000 sq m has been cleared for firebreaks as Kalamunda Shire councilhave insisted that a three-meter firebreak be constructed and maintainedto the full boundary of the property. They also recommended that anadditional firebreak be provided to the south of the buildings, outside thepool fence.

This leaves an area of bush of approximately 4600 sq m, which has in thepast been cleared and used for the grazing of cattle and sheep.

The predominant type of flora to be found in this area is Watsonia, whichtogether with grasses, Cape tulip, freesia and broad-leafed weeds,dominate the native plants.

The SCA No 1 has included the whole or part of twelve privately ownedproperties of approximately one hectare each. Of these, two have yet tobe developed (Lots 44 & 45), while four have been substantially cleared(28 to 31). The remainder have been developed to a similar stage as LotNo 19. The existing TPS zoning is Special Rural, which allows for amuch more intensive development than Rural.

On the assumption that Lots 44 & 45 are developed to the same degree asLot 19, then the resultant area of bush within SCA No 1 would consist ofeight unconnected, separately fenced, pockets of dubious quality bush ofapproximately 4500 sq m each. It is not possible to develop Lots 44 & 45for single residential lots and comply with Planning Policy 2.8.

The Bushland Policy for the Perth Metropolitan Region Statement ofPlanning Policy 2.8 Schedule 2 Specific Policy Measure 5.2.4 (ii) Clause(i) generally requires not less than 90% bushland retention for each lot orfor the whole site. This clearly cannot now be met as less than 4 hectaresfrom the original 11.6 hectares remains.

Clause (ii) (c) suggests that restrictions be placed upon development toachieve this aim (90% bush retention). It is not compatible with thecurrent Special Rural Zoning, which allows for the development ofresidences and a range of rural activities.

Clause (iii) indicates that generally only large blocks over 10 hectares areto be created and (b) makes a presumption against intensive rural living(4 ha or less), depending upon the conservation value and characteristicsof the site. We have previously indicated that no significant flora of valueappears to have been found.

The proposed inclusion of our property in the BushPlan will restrict theuses and future development of the site. This is now becoming apparentin the reduction of the value of the property and the reduction in thenumber of prospective buyers, as we are attempting to sell the propertyand relocate to our retirement home.

In conclusion we again request the removal of our property from theproposed Bush Forever Protection Area on the grounds that as a result ofrecent, intense development, the area remaining in SCA No 1 is a smallproportion of that originally proposed, does not comply with theStatement of Planning Policy, is of regionally insignificant floristicalvalue and places an unreasonable financial burden upon my wife andmyself in our attempt to sell the property.

Draft Bush land Policy for Perth Metropolitan RegionStatement of Planning Policy No.2.8

As owners of our 4.388 hectares we oppose any re-zoning from our current General Ruralzoned land and we oppose our lot to be allocated under Bush Forever and will not acceptthis. Had it been clear to us that our lot was going to be allocated for Bush forever wewould not have purchased our property.

As our land is zoned 'General Rural' we wish to be able to use our land for what the zoningoutlines e.g. horticultural, agricultural and equestrian activities. Like most people in ourestate we purchased our lot for rural pursuits. As ratepayers and owners of our land we feelwe should be able to use, as a minimum, one hectare of our land with no restrictions onclearing or use.

Aside from this we do not understand why our lot has been allocated in Bush Forever as thebushland on our lot, and in fact the entire estate, is in a severely degraded state. Thereasons for the poor condition of the vegetation are due to wide scale and complete clearingof the area in 1979 and also previous to this date (we have aerial photos which show this)and anecdotal evidence of livestock grazing on our lot. As a result of these pastdisturbances the area is heavily infested with large feral pine trees, has a predominance ofshrubs with very little Banksia over storey (which is not indicative of a healthy Banksiawoodland ecosystem), and most significantly the under storey is dominated by numerousweed species. For these reasons we are confident that the area is not in any wayrepresentative of a Banksia woodland ecosystem that may benefit from Bush Foreverprotection.

We would like to request a response to this submission and ask you to please consider thereasons we have provided for opposing Bush Forever allocation of our lot.

Yours Faithfully

(e) does not support the inclusion of the portion of Area 312 known as "AK"Reserve as a Bush Forever site;

(t) the Statement of Planning Policy No. 2.8, is generally acceptable and theprovision for Negotiated Planning Solutions is supported;

(ii) with respect to the points in (1) above, the Western Australian Planning Commissionbe advised that:-

(a) ownership of Bold Park (an area of approximately 470 hectares and formerlyzoned Urban under the Metropolitan Region Scheme ) was transferred to theState Government for the purpose of protecting it for future generations andthat this contribution should be recognised in consideration of any future claim

for additional areas within the Town to be set aside under the provisions ofBush Forever;

(b) areas "M" and "N" are zoned Urban under the Metropolitan Region Schemeand are Scheme reserves for Parks and Recreation under the Town ofCambridge Town Planning Scheme No. 1. The reservation under TownPlanning Scheme No. 1 affords sufficient protection to Areas "M" and "N";

(c) "AK" Reserve is earmarked for redevelopment to relocate sporting facilitiesfrom the nearby Perry Lakes Stadium site in accordance with ongoingnegotiations with the Western Australian Planning Commission and the StateGovernment in relation to the future redevelopment of Perry Lakes Stadium.The inclusion of AK reserve as a Bush Reserve would be contradictory in lightof the ongoing discussions and negotiations with the State Government andWestern Australian Planning Commission.

Footnote:

With respect to items (0(d) and (ii)(b) above, the areas of land concerned were identifiedas "M" and "N" in the deed for the creation of Bold Park in 1995. In the original deed, itwas proposed that areas "M" and "N" be declared reserves under the Land Act andfurther, that they be included in an amendment to the Metropolitan Region Scheme whichreserved all of Bold Park as Parks and Recreation. Council objected to this aspect of thedeed and it was subsequently agreed that it be removed. A copy of Plan No. 3.1904 hasbeen attached depicting areas "M" and "N".

BUSH FOREVER SITE No 327 LOT 10 (245) MARY STREET WANNEROO DANZI

APPROPRIATENESS OF DESIGNATION

It is not considered appropriate that our land is designated as a Bush Forever site for the

following reasons

1. The bush/vegetation is not considered to be regionally significant.

2. It constitutes regrowth following the clearing of the land about 25 years ago.

3. There are much more appropriate sites in the vicinity which have been overlooked.

4. It prevents the use of the land for the purpose for which it is zoned.

5. The area is predominantly cleared and the remaining vegetation represents a small,

isolated, insignificant pocket which is difficult to sustain.

USE AND ZONING OF THE LAND

Under the City of Wanneroo District Planning Scheme No 2, the land is. zoned Rural

Resource for which priority uses are intensive agriculture, horticulture and basic raw

materials extraction.

The inclusion of the land as a Bush Forever site will effectively remove the ability to use

the land in accordance with the applicable zoning.

The immediate area is already characterised by intensive agricultural use, primarily market

gardening which has resulted in extensive clearing of vegetation. The adjoining landowner

has sought to lease the land to expand his existing commercially viable market garden but

the retention of the bush will deny that, contrary to the Council's Scheme and the zoning of

the land.

LAND VALUE

We have lived on and worked this property for 40 years. We are concerned that the Bush

Forever designation will adversely affect the value of the land and prevent us from

realising its true worth or receiving adequate compensation.

Dear Sir / Madam

Metropolitan Region Scheme Amendment No 1082.33Bush Forever And Related Lands


Bush Forever Protection Area BFS291Lot 21, 171 Morrissey Road, Bullsbrook

We recently received the above Amendment Report and Statement of Planning Policyin relation to Bush Forever And Related Lands relating to proposals by thegovernment to protect regionally significant bushland identified in Bush Forever sites.As landowners of Lot 21 of BSF291 this immediately and directly effects us.

On 1 July 2002, after two long years of searching for an appropriate property, wepurchased the above mentioned 50 acre lot. Our ambition at this time was toeventually establish a stud farm of Dorper sheep, combining a self sustaining lifestylein line with the conservation of the land. This was to be an investment project leadingto our eventual retirement.

Prior to signing the contract of purchase we specifically contacted the Shire of Swan,the Water and Rivers Commission and the Department of Land Administration(DOLA) to appropriate information relevant to the land. We were basicallyinformed that the land was zoned "landscape" and that the keeping of livestock wouldonly necessitate an application to Council for the rezoning of the property, i.e viaApplication for Approval to Commence Development. When speaking to the Shire ofSwan we were advised to approach the Water and Rivers Commission and theDepartment of Land Administration (DOLA). Upon speaking to these GovernmentDepartments at no time were we informed that the land was in fact subject to areservation under the Metropolitan Region Scheme.

Two and a half years later, after committing a large financial investment in theproperty and consequent improvements, we were informed by the Western AustraliaPlanning Commission that effective immediately no further development was alloweddue to the Bush Forever Policy. This obviously has an immediate impact on not onlyall our business plans for the property, but the very direction of which our lives are totake in the future.

To further our investigations today we contacted the Department of Planning andInfrastructure and spoke with Ms Carissa Bathgate. The Amendment Reportindicated that BFS291 contained "Declared Rare Flora and a Priority 1 species" (Page16 Proposal 36 Bush Forever Site No. 291). Our enquiries were to specificallyidentify this flora and its location on our property. Ms Bathgate informed us that:-

1) The property was indeed currently zoned "Landscape".2) Lot 21 was allocated for reservation as Bush Forever.3) Lot 21 had not been identified to substantiate flora of this nature. The

Declared Rare Flora and the Priority 1 species were in fact located eastof our allotment.

4) If we wished to further develop the land we would need to submit anapplication to the Shire of Swan accordingly.

SUBMISSION ON PROPOSED AMENDMENT REPORT

Metropolitan Region Scheme Amendment No 1082.33Bush Forever And Related Lands


Bush Forever Protection Area BFS291Lot 21, 171 Morrissey Road, Bullsbrook

Our primary vision when purchasing our property (Lot 21) in July 2002 was toestablish a successful small Dorper sheep stud farm that we can develop and continueto run during retirement. Given the total area of Lot 21 is only 20.006 hectares, theproperty will only be able to sustain a limited number of livestock. It was also ourintention when purchasing Lot 21 to maintain the existing native bushland as webelieve it offers important economic and environmental values. As outlined by theDepartment of Land and Water Australia (LWW: Managing native vegetation andbiodiversity making more from your native pastures, 2003) the sustainablemanagement of the native vegetation on our property has the potential to enhance thequality and health of the Dorper sheep for the proposed stud farm.

The development and land uses for Lot 21 that we intend to implement will be wellresearched and follow the guidelines suggested by the Department of Land and Water,the Department of Agriculture, private consultation (local community groups etc.) andwith consultation, if necessary, from the Bush Forever committee. This will ensurethat the development of the proposed Dorper sheep stud will not impact on the pre-existing native bushland. The aims for our proposed land development include:

a) Preserve deep rooted, perennial native vegetation.Dorper sheep are not known to be a threat to either Eucalypt (Myrtaceae)or Banksia trees, the two of which account for the majority of the trees onLot 21. We intend to preserve all trees on the property as they provideshelter and reduce the risk of soil salinity.

b) Protection of understorey shrub.Lot 21 contains small pockets of native understorey vegetation. Webelieve this type of vegetation, comprising mainly grasstrees(Xanthorrhoea preissii) adds to the aesthetics and contains the majority ofthe biodiversity of flora and fauna on the property. These small pocketscan be easily fenced off and will therefore be protected and maintained.

c) Enhance natural grasses and develop pastures compatible with thebushland.The soil is basically of very poor quality. We seek to enhance and enrichits quality through permaculture, through the use of native grasses forpasture and providing appropriate levels of nutrient enrichment. Thedevelopment of the pastures to sustain the livestock is anticipated to take aminimum of three to five years to successfully establish beforeintroducing livestock. Extensive preparation will be carried out inaccordance with guidelines of the pre-mentioned departments andorganisations.

Lot 21 exists on the boundary of BFS291 and does not break passage of anyconnecting native bushland corridors. Furthermore, there is no documented evidenceof the classification of rare or protected flora on the property. We therefore ask forcomplete exemption from the Bush Forever Policy and for the property to be rezonedas "rural" accordingly, this will allow for our previously outlined Dorper sheep stud toco-exist with the sustainable management of the existing native vegetation.

SUBMISSION IN SUPPORT OF PERTH'S BUSHLAND

METROPOLITAN REGION SCHEMEAmendment 1082/33: Bush Forever & Related Lands

I would like the following comments to be considered in relation to the proposals in-the above MRSAmendment:

I strongly support the establishment of Bush Forever Protection Areas (special control areas) in thePerth Metropolitan Region Scheme over all Bush Forever sites

I oppose development within Bush Forever Protection Areas and clearing in these sites should beexpressly prohibited

Any development proposals that would adversely affect the conservation values of Bush Forever sitesshould receive scrutiny from EPA, WAPC, so that community members are consulted.

Legal status of the SPP 2.8 needs to be strengthened. Otherwise provisions of the SPP 2.8 may not beimplemented faithfully

The emphasis should be on 'conservation management' rather than 'development' in Bush ForeverProtection Areas. A section should be inserted to require that all Bush Forever Protection Areas aremanaged by the landholder to preserve and maintain conservation values.

I support the reservation of all proposed Bush Forever sites as Parks and Recreation for conservation.

The amendments fail to give priority protection to sites with vegetation complexes below the 10%target. It is a Government commitment that through the Bush Forever process at least 10% of each ofvegetation complex will be protected.
