Yanchep Lagoon Improvement

Overview

Real change is underway at Yanchep. One of Perth’s fastest growing suburbs, Yanchep will soon become part of a thriving metropolitan corridor stretching from the CBD to Two Rocks.  

In response to Yanchep’s continuing expansion, a major place-based development, called the Yanchep Lagoon Improvement Project, is underway. This project will create greater opportunities for tourism, recreation and economic growth across the Lagoon Precinct.

The City will work closely with residents and stakeholders to guide future development of the Lagoon Precinct and ensure outcomes continue to meet community needs.

Input on the concept design and the capacity of the existing services was sought from the service providers such as Alita Gas, Western Power and the Water Corporation. The design is now ready to progress to the detailed design phase.

Old Surf Club Redevelopment

Update 14 August 2024

The Lease (and Agreement for Lease) to Be Our Guest Holdings for the redevelopment of the Old Yanchep Surf Club site was approved by Council on 23 April 2024 (CS05-04/24).

The Yanchep Community Working Group will continue to provide feedback as the project moves into detailed design.  Working Group input will continue in the coming months,  in advance of submission of a formal development application to the Western Australian Planning Commission.

The completion of the development (and its future opening date) is reliant on the connection of utility service upgrades by the City (currently under design as a separate project).
