DA26/0341-Two Storey Single Dwelling - 2 Quenda Drive Canning Vale WA 6155

Your comments are invited!

The City has received a development application for a two-storey single dwelling that proposes a variation to the primary street setback requirements of the Residential Design Codes Volume 1 (R-Codes).

Reason for Advertising

Western Australia’s planning legislation sets out statutory consultation requirements for a range of planning matters. This allows people who may be impacted by proposals and the community in general to comment on proposals.

In this instance, the application is being advertised to owners and occupiers in accordance with the City’s Local Planning Policy LP-11 – Public Consultation of Planning Proposals.

The R-Codes provide a basis for the management of residential development throughout Western Australia. The R-Codes have two levels of assessment; a ‘Deemed-to-Comply’ and a ‘Design Principles’ assessment. The ‘Deemed-to-Comply’ provisions of the R-Codes are prescriptive in nature whereas the ‘Design Principles’ are more performance based. Where a proposal does not achieve the ‘deemed-to-comply’ pathway requirements, the proposal is to be considered against the relevant ‘design principles’ of the R-Codes.

Matters for Consideration

Street Boundary setback:

The application proposes a primary street setback variation of 2.3 m in lieu of the required 4.0 m from the primary street (Quenda Drive) and as required in the deemed-to-comply requirements of the R-Codes under Clause 5.1.2.
The standard requirements of clause 5.1.2 C2.1 of the R-Codes is to provide 4.0m from the primary street.

How to Submit Your Comments

Please send your written feedback to the City by 5pm on 23 September 2026 using the form below. You may also attach supporting documents such as plans, diagrams, or photographs.

In accordance with Part 8 of Local Planning Policy LP-11 – Public Consultation of Planning Proposals, if no response is received from a notified owner or occupier, the City will assume there are no comments. A lack of response will not be interpreted as either support or objection.

Guidance on what is 'valid' or 'non-valid' planning consideration is provided in the Policy.

What happens following consultation?

Once the consultation period closes, a delegated officer of the City will assess the proposal, taking into account relevant planning considerations and any feedback received from affected landowners and occupiers.

If the City makes a decision on the development application (approval or refusal), we will contact you to explain how your comments were considered.

In some cases, the application may be referred to a Council meeting for determination. If this occurs, you will receive an invitation to attend or view the meeting online.
