The Ellenbrook Local Area Plan

Local area planning involves consultation between community members and the City, identifying issues and prioritising the needs of their local area.

Local Area Plans (LAPS) provide the opportunity to recognise the character and needs of our diverse communities, and consolidate current or planned strategies and actions to address these.

The plan highlights the priorities of the community identified during the consultation period. It also creates a roadmap for the City to plan for and deliver outcomes that meet the aspirations and needs of the community.
