As you know, discussions over the future redevelopment of the Royal George Hotel site at 34 Duke Street East Fremantle have been fairly contentious over the years.
A development application for the Royal George Hotel site has been submitted to the State Development Assessment Unit (SDAU) and will be assessed/determined by the SDAU/WA Planning Commission (WAPC) under the ‘Significant Development’ pathway in accordance with new planning legislation introduced in July 2020.
The Town is only a referral body for this application, providing comment to the SDAU regarding the proposed development. The Council is required to consider the proposal and, should it wish to do so, formally make a submission to the WAPC. It is Council’s intention to make a submission.
Also, the Town is not authorised to provide any information pertaining to this development application as directed by the SDAU. All advertising of the proposal and the final determination will be undertaken by the SDAU/WAPC. All enquiries and comments should be directed to the SDAU by telephoning 6551 8002.
