Perth and Peel Urban Land Development Pipeline Assessment 2016/17

Urban Land Development Outlook 2016/17 assesses future land supply across planning, zoning, approval, development, and redevelopment stages for Perth and Peel. The database, created by the Department of Planning, Lands and Heritage, monitors current projects and identifies likely future residential, industrial, and commercial land development.

Use Cases

• Analyze the spatial distribution of scheme amendments and subdivision approvals to model future urban growth patterns.
• Monitor the status of developer intentions and structure planning in progress for infrastructure investment planning.
• Segment future residential land supply by fringe versus infill development and by dwelling type (single vs. multi-dwelling).
• Coordinate land delivery by tracking local government development applications/approvals across the supply chain.

Strengths

• Covers multiple land use categories: residential, special residential, special rural, industrial, commercial, and tourism.
• Tracks development pipeline from early planning (scheme amendments) through to final approvals.
• Provides spatial context for future land development over short, medium, and long terms.

Limitations

• Data is from the 2016/17 release and may not reflect current project statuses or market conditions.
• Specific quantitative metrics like row counts, parcel areas, or dwelling unit totals are not provided in the description.
• Focus is limited to the Perth metropolitan and Peel regions, not statewide.
