Why you have received this letter.

The City has received the above reference Development Application. This application seeks approval for a Home Business (Dog Grooming) operated within the existing outbuilding:

The home business is outlined as follows:

  • The home business will be operated solely by the owner of the dwelling.
  • Proposed hours of operation are:
    1. Monday to Friday 8:30 – 5:30 by appointment only.
    2. Occasional Saturday 11 – 4 pm by appointment only.
  • Not more than one customer will be present on site at any time.
  • Parking provided on the driveway with 2 car parking spaces available.

Matters that we would like you to consider.

We ask that you consider the following matter(s) and let us know whether you object to or support the development proposal.


  1. The land use

Table 3 – Zoning Table of the City’s Scheme lists a ‘Home Business’ use as an ‘A’ (discretionary) land use in the subject Residential zone. This means that the use is not permitted unless the local government has exercised its discretion by granting development approval after giving notice to affected landowners and occupants.


In considering an application for development approval, the local government will have regard to matters detailed in the state government’s Planning and Development (Local Planning Schemes) Regulations 2015 (Regulations 2015). In this instance the relevant matters for consideration include, but may not be limited to:

  1. The aims and provisions of the City of Canning Local Planning Scheme No. 42 (‘Scheme’) - specifically whether the proposed use meets the objectives of the subject Residential zone, as outlined in Table 2 of the City’s Scheme.
  1. The compatibility of the development with its setting including the relationship of the development to development on adjoining or on other land in the locality including, but not limited to, the likely effect of the height, bulk, scale, orientation and appearance of the development.
  1. The impact on the amenity of the locality. ‘Amenity’ is defined in Schedule 1 of the Regulations 2015, as: “... all those factors which combine to form the character of an area and include the present and likely future amenity;”. Common amenity considerations include, but are not limited to, car parking and traffic generation, noise or odour emissions, and visual aesthetics.
