Wheatbelt Regional Strategy - Your Comments Needed/Wanted

15-10-2009
A great opportunity to shape the strategic plan for the Wheatbelt.

The Shire President & Chief Executive Officer will be attending an initial meeting in Perth with the Planning Commission on Monday 19 October 2009.  A major challenge for government is to establish policy to drive the development of the Wheatbelt in a coordinated manner and to best support people, businesses and the environment.

The preparation of a regional strategy is an opportunity to consider the planning issues and challenges facing the wheatbelt over the next two decades, and establish a land use policy framework that will support decisions over that time. The 'Towards a Wheatbelt Regional Strategy' Directions Paper sets out the scope and emerging policy directions for the preparation of regional planning strategy for the wheatbelt.

Public comment on the directions paper is encouraged, please forward your comments by Monday 21 December 2009 to:

Western Australian Planning Commission
469 Wellington Street
Perth, WA 6009
Email: corporate@planning.wa.gov.au

Please direct any queries to Daniel Stevens on 9264 7613.
