Parliamentary Questions


Question Without Notice No. 775 asked in the Legislative Council on 8 August 2019 by Hon Donna Faragher

Parliament: 40 Session: 1

WHITEMAN PARK — ZONING

775. Hon DONNA FARAGHER to the minister representing the Minister for Planning:

I refer to Whiteman Park.

(1) Can the minister confirm that Whiteman Park, including the Marshall Road lands, is reserved as parks and recreation under the metropolitan region scheme?

(2) Is the government considering an amendment to the MRS to allow for the rezoning of Whiteman Park as part of the proposed Morley–Ellenbrook railway line and/or for any other purposes?

(3) If yes to (2), what reservation changes are being proposed and what area or areas of Whiteman Park are included?

Hon STEPHEN DAWSON replied:

(1) Yes.

(2)–(3) The government has not made any decisions to amend the metropolitan region scheme in relation to Whiteman Park. It should be noted that the previous government was planning to locate a cemetery in the area, and the City of Swan was working with the then government to develop a sporting complex in this region as well.
