Local Water Management Strategy for Beaconsfield TAFE

The proposed development will be a mix of residential lots (2.30 ha), with associated public open space (0.61 ha) and road infrastructure (0.91 ha).

Design elements to meet project objectives;

  • Water sustainability
  • Surface water management
  • Groundwater management
  • Flood management
  • Management of disease vectors and nuisance insects
  • Implementation

 

This Local Water Management Strategy (LWMS) was prepared to support the Local Structure Plan for the Beaconsfield TAFE site in the City of Fremantle.

The site is located approximately 20 km south-west of the Perth CBD and 2km south-east of Fremantle. The site is approximately 3.8 hectares in size and is bound by:

  • Lefroy street to the south;
  • Grosvenor Street to the north;
  • Caesar Street to the east;
  • Badham Close to the west.

 

This LWMS was prepared consistent with Better Urban Water Management (WAPC, 2008) and the Draft State Planning Policy 2.9 Planning for Water and its’ guidelines. The LWMS provides a summary of the design objectives, site characteristics (following a review of regional datasets and field investigations), water management measures and steps to implement the UWMP.
