The Planning and Development (Local Planning Schemes) Regulations 2015 introduced new regulations limiting structure plans to a 10-year operational period. All structure plans adopted before 2015 are treated as though they were adopted on that date, setting their expiration date to 18 October 2025.

The City completed an audit of structure plans expiring in October 2025 and applied for necessary extensions with the Western Australian Planning Commission.

When LPS 24 was gazetted on 30 September 2025, several fully developed structure plan areas were rezoned to match their structure plan zoning. This means a structure plan is no longer required to guide development and subdivision, so these plans can now expire.

The following plans were normalised:

• Canning Vale
• Corfield Street
• West Martin Precinct 1
• Yule Brook Precinct 1
• North Gosnells Sub Precinct K
• West Canning Vale
• Eileen Street Precinct 1
• Central Beckenham Precinct I
• Southern River Precinct 5
• Chamberlain Street
• Southern River Precinct 1A–1F (inclusive)

When the Western Australian Planning Commission did not grant an extension, the City contacted affected landowners to explore available options. In case of the 2025 review, West Martin Precinct 2 was not granted the extension and has expired.
