DRAFT DISTRICT STRUCTURE PLAN
In land development a district Structure Plan provides a framework for the coordinated provision of land use, development, infrastructure and the provision of services.
Much consultation is used in preparing the draft plan. It is ultimately adopted by local and State government to guide the future development of an area.
The proposed district structure plan:
• Assists with detailed planning
• Gives landowners and developers more certainty by confirming land uses, showing future roads and identifying the infrastructure that's needed. It also provides an idea of how the future development of Latitude 32 is likely to be staged..
• Helps with the timing and provision of major services such as new roads, water, sewerage and power upgrades
• Allows local structure plans to be prepared for each precinct, followed by subdivision and development of the area.
One of our biggest priorities has been to work with local people with local knowledge.
The Community Reference Group highlighted important local issues which we have listened to and included in the draft district structure plan and revised master plan.
• Ensuring freight traffic from the Kwinana Freight Terminal will use the new Rowley Road extension
• Protecting wetlands and other areas of local and environmental significance
• Providing input into how industrial land development should interface with rural areas east of Latitude 32
• Coordinating the advertising of the District Structure Plan and revised Master Plan
Due to the large size of the draft District Structure Plan document we have split it up to make it easier for you to download.

PROPOSED MASTER PLAN AMENDMENT NO. 4
Planning for Latitude 32 started in 2001. The Hope Valley Wattleup master plan set the overall planning direction for the area.
Following its initial release in 2004, the master plan has been revised as a result of comprehensive research, analysis, consultation and planning by LandCorp and its project partners.
During the revision process, a number of changes have been proposed:
• Reserving key areas for parks and recreation
• Reserving land for the Kwinana Freight Terminal
• Creating two new commercial centres
• Changing precinct boundaries to provide a suitable interface between Latitude 32 and nearby rural areas.
