Certain development requires approval under a region scheme (additional or instead of approval under a local planning scheme). This is specified in the region scheme text for reserved land and specified in the notice for each Region Scheme for zoned land.
The Western Australian Planning Framework provides an overview of many of the key documents which make up the planning system, some of which are relevant to the Region Scheme Development approvals process. State Planning Policies, development control policies, fact sheets and guidelines and can be found in the State Planning Framework. Links to some of those specifically relevant to region scheme development control are below.
