The Town will soon be coming back out to community for engagement on the Local Planning Strategy (LPS).

The Town is in the process of developing a Public Health Plan. Stay tuned as we get ready for the next stage of engagement 

Public Health Plan

<h2 id="local-planning-scheme-no-3---amendment-no-1---gill-street--caf--3">Local Planning Scheme No.3 - Amendment No.7 - Modification of Signage Requirements</h2>The Town of Mosman Park has initiated the above Local Planning Scheme No.3 Amendment No.7. The Amendment proposes to modify Schedule 2 - Exempted Advertisements of the Scheme. In Brief, the Town&rsquo;s Scheme currently exempts all forms of signage on non-residential properties from the requirement to obtain a development approval. This means that there are no controls regarding the size, location, or number of signs that can be placed on any non-residential property within the Town. Without statutory controls there is potential for individuals to exploit the placement of signage on their properties for advertising purposes. The proposed Amendment seeks to rectify this by modifying the Scheme text to require signage to be exempted through the requirements of a Local Planning Policy. The Policy will stipulate the various requirements for different signs, including how specific signage types may be exempted from development approval. Draft Local Planning Policy 26 - Signs &amp; Advertising has been prepared to address the new provisions around signage within the Town.Council adopted the Scheme Amendment at the December round of Council meetings. Th Scheme Amendment will be forwarded to the WA Planning Commission for final consideration. Draft Local Planning Policy No. 26 - Signs &amp; AdvertisingThe Town of Mosman Park has prepared and adopted for the purposes of advertising a draft Local Planning Policy that outlines the requirements for signs and advertising on private land within the Town. Consultation for the Draft Policy has now closed. The Policy is expected to be tabled at Council for final adoption in early 2024. The following documents are available for consideration:<ul class="decimal_type"><li>Ordinary Council Meeting Minutes, 26th April 2023 &ndash; Adoption of Proposed Amendment No. 7 for the Purposes of Public Advertising.</li><li>Draft LPP 26 - Signs and Advertising.</li></ul>Alternatively, the documentation can be viewed at the Town of Mosman Park Administration Centre located at 1 Memorial Drive, Mosman Park during office during business hours.

<div class="OutlineElement Ltr SCXW176319449 BCX0">The Town of Mosman Park is embarking on a program to future proof its parks and sports ovals.

<h3>For the past two decades, the Town of Mosman Park has been dedicated to replacing overhead powerlines with underground infrastructure in collaboration with the State Government and Western Power.</h3>Underground power brings a raft of sustainable benefits, such as safer and more reliable power supply, visually appealing streetscapes and enhanced property values.In 2002-2003, the Town successfully implemented underground power to around half of Mosman Park through Western Power&#39;s State Underground Power Program.However, the complexity and cost of underground power (and serious challenges in securing funding) have left the remainder of Mosman Park still without this infrastructure upgrade.Undergrounding power in Mosman Park is complicated and prohibitively expensive.In acknowledgement of the strong community support for underground power, however, Council and Administration have continued to push forward over the years; investing significant time and effort into exploring alternative funding models and options to complete underground power in Mosman Park.Western Power has advised that the planned installation date for underground power in the Town of Mosman Park is between 2032 and 2037 through the <a href="https://www.wa.gov.au/organisation/energy-policy-wa/targeted-underground-power-program">Targeted Underground Power Program</a> (TUPP). However, there is now an opportunity to expedite the project through Western Power&#39;s Retrospective Undergrounding Power (RUP) Project.Read on for the latest update, what actions we&#39;ve taken so far, and our next steps. <a href="https://yoursay.mosmanpark.wa.gov.au/92752/widgets/432557/documents/283250" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Read our detailed Facts and FAQs</a><a href="https://yoursay.mosmanpark.wa.gov.au/92752/widgets/432557/documents/282526" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"></a> <img src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/ehq-production-australia/1a63b0320d9de643c8981cd9c0231a1575c4185c/original/1711426099/42cfca8a7b639c399b21b9f5efa60730_Underground_Power_Project_Update_Visual_png.png?1711426099" style="width: 900px;" class="fr-fic fr-dib fr-fil"> More informationWe highly recommend reading our detailed <a href="https://yoursay.mosmanpark.wa.gov.au/92752/widgets/432557/documents/283250" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">FAQs and Facts</a>, which will provide you with information around funding the U/P project, community consultation and what still needs to be done to complete underground power in Mosman Park.
