Town Planning Schemes and Amendments
Town Planning Scheme No. 2 (current)
The City of Nedlands Town Planning No. 2 is the primary statutory document for the control and development of land in the City. The Scheme divides the land into zones (eg Residential, Office/Showroom, Light Industrial) and indicates the type of land uses which may be considered within each zone.
The Town Planning Scheme, in addition to Council Policies and the Residential Design Codes of Western Australia provide detailed provisions to guide the form and scale of any development or redevelopment.
