Wyndham council has signed off on a plan to subdivide land and use it for the expansion of the Mambourin Town Centre.
The site, which is located at 370 Black Forest Road, Mambourin, is proposed to include a child care centre, swim school, an automotive repair centre and a restricted retail premises.
The submitted plans project the child care centre to have seven rooms and a capacity for 116 children, and at this stage, a Bridgestone Select Tyre Centre is expected to be a tenet.
Part of the flagged retail scheme are three convenience restaurants and a bottle shop, both of which will have adjacent car parking spaces.
Service areas, waste storage, and loading zones are distributed throughout the site, including a substation kiosk in the south-east corner.
The layout also allows for pedestrian, cyclist, and vehicle access throughout, and landscaping includes a variety of trees, shrubs, and grasses.
According to the officer’s report, the building scale is appropriately balanced and does not dominate the skyline or detract from the future town centre hub, allowing for the preservation of key view lines and connections across the area.
It was also deemed that the proposal will bring economic benefits to Mambourin and expand the access of goods, services and amenities to the surrounding community.
The report further stated that it will have social benefits for Mambourin while not causing any environmental concerns.
