(a-h) Brabham is a large scale, mature residential estate project in the northern metro region, with a total of 3,000 lots expected at project completion. Approximately $72 million has been spent to date to deliver over 1,000 lots, and Brabham has become a thriving community. A mix of social and affordable housing has been provisioned for within the estate. As is standard industry practice, remaining lots will be released in stages and announcements of these releases will be made in due course. The City of Swan Development Control Plan has allowed for various community infrastructure items, noting that planning for these items is the responsibility of the Local Government Authority. As part of this planned community, there is provision for two primary schools, a high school, several commercial sites and public open space to be delivered. Purchasers set construction timeframes, built form design and occupation in line with development conditions.
