The Shire of Serpentine Jarrahdale is seeking public feedback on a new policy aimed at preserving the cultural heritage of Jarrahdale.

The policy is designed to protect and celebrate the town's historic places, while guiding future development to maintain its unique character. The policy looks to transition current design controls to a more updated format, which is clearer and easier for the community to use and integrate as part of future development proposals.

We are very proud of the history of Jarrahdale, and see this policy update as a way to connect development opportunities with the rich cultural and built heritage of the place.

The Shire encourages all residents, particularly those in Jarrahdale, to review the draft policy and provide input on the Shire's engagement portal: https://yoursaysj.sjshire.wa.gov.au/.

"This is a great opportunity for the community to shape the future of Jarrahdale," said Shire President Rob Coales.

"We want to ensure that the policy reflects the values and aspirations of our residents."

Connecting with the community

Residents are invited to attend a special Drop-In Session, where they can ask questions about the new policy and meet Shire officers.

Session Details:

Bruno Gianatti Hall
Thursday, 30 January
Two sessions will be held: 9:00am to 11:00am and 4:30pm to 6:30pm.

For more information or to make a submission, head to the Shire’s engagement portal: https://www.yoursaysj.sjshire.wa.gov.au/.
