Coleraine Structure Plan
A Structure Plan is being developed to guide the future growth and development of Coleraine.
The Coleraine Structure Plan will serve as a long-term planning framework, outlining a shared vision for the township’s future. This project aims to:
- Identify Strategic Challenges
Address strategic planning issues affecting Coleraine, including the community’s needs and aspirations. - Define a Settlement Boundary
Establish a clear settlement boundary to guide development. - Envision the Future
Develop a forward-looking vision for Coleraine to the year 2050. - Address Constraints
Identify and document areas subject to challenges such as bushfires, flooding, land capability, and other risks. - Land Use Framework
Update the land use and development framework in alignment with the new Structure Plan. - Enhance Public Spaces
Recommend improvements to public spaces to enhance the town’s liveability and appeal.
The Structure Plan will act as a critical policy document, guiding Council decisions and informing initiatives such as planning scheme amendments, capital works projects, service delivery improvements, advocacy efforts, and partnerships. It will also assist in the assessment of planning permit applications and provide direction for future infrastructure and service needs.
