Recent initiatives include a comprehensive review and redevelopment of the City's Land Use Pathway resources, making planning requirements and development processes easier to understand. The City has also launched its online Property Portal, a dedicated one-stop shop that brings together key information in a more accessible and user-friendly format.  

These enhancements build on the success of the City's inaugural Developers Forum: A Connected East, which brought together developers and consultants to explore current opportunities waiting to be unlocked across the City of Kalamunda.  

Mayor Margaret Thomas highlighted the importance of removing barriers to information and improving accessibility “We know that having clear and accessible information is important, particularly for those navigating planning and development processes for the first time.” 

“These improvements are focused on making information easier to find, easier to understand and easier to use. These improvements are all about helping people get the information they need sooner, so they can move forward with confidence."  

Looking ahead, the City is developing a comprehensive Land Register that will provide visibility of development opportunities across the district. The first phase will include 85 freehold sites, with future stages expanding to more than 250 freehold and Crown land sites, ultimately supported by interactive mapping functionality.  

Together, these initiatives are designed to reduce complexity, improve transparency and help connect investment opportunities with those looking to develop, build and grow within Kalamunda.
