Precinct Structure Plan - Have your say

The Precinct Structure Plan sets out how the former ECU Mount Lawley campus can transition into a new mixed-use neighbourhood. Building upon the Master Plan vision, which was informed by extensive community and stakeholder consultation, it provides a strategic planning framework that guides future development, identifying where future homes, parks, streets and community facilities will be located. It establishes the planning controls that will guide building scale, landscaping and access so that development responds appropriately to its surroundings. Future subdivision and development proposals will align with this framework and will be assessed separately through future planning processes.

The City of Stirling is publicly advertising the Precinct Structure Plan and is inviting submissions between Friday 6 March and Friday 17 April 2026 via its website here.

Master Plan now finalised

The ECU Mount Lawley Master Plan has now been finalised, following community consultation undertaken during the development of the project’s key design principles and the Draft Master Plan across 2024 and 2025.

The community feedback received during consultation was carefully reviewed and considered in finalising the Master Plan. While the overall vision remains unchanged, refinements were made to provide greater clarity and detail in key areas, including movement and access, built form and housing, the role of key community facilities and how the project will be delivered over time. See our updated Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) on the right of this page, with further detail provided on the project website's FAQs.
