QuestionView source ↗

Landcorp policies state that the
Western Australian Land Authority Act 1992
requires Landcorp to take account of the social, economic and environmental outcomes of the performance of its functions and to ensure those outcomes are balanced. It also states that Landcorp recognise that the success of the business depends on the integration of community, economic and environmental outcomes as well as design excellence. In relation to the above and to the redevelopment of the former Carine TAFE site, I ask:
(a) why was the advertised second community open day consultation, referred to in the Carine Vision Bulletin, 2 November 2008, abandoned;
(b) what efforts were made to inform the community that this important stage of the consultation process was abandoned; and
(c) how did the Minister and Landcorp ensure that a more detailed Structure Plan would be further modified based on open day feedback if there was no second open day?

(a) LandCorp originally identified an option for an additional open day, however it was considered that the community's views had been effectively captured through a community open day, the establishment of a stakeholder reference group, the establishment of a community information and feedback telephone line, and through the City of Stirling's 42 day advertising period for the Structure Plan.
(b) The community had been kept informed of the project through the consultation process, and as no date or time was set for a second open day, no notification was required.
(c) Thorough consultation was held through a stakeholder reference group, the City of Stirling's 42 day advertising period (22 March 2011), the establishment of the community information and feedback line, the distribution of 300 invitations to contact the project team, the distribution of a frequently asked questions document to 2600 Carine households,
