SOURCE RECORD · AS DATED

The Western Australian Planning Commission approved the amendment application at its meeting on 27 August 2026. The amendment extends by 36 months the period in which the $320 million redevelopment at 140 Marine Parade, Cottesloe must be substantially commenced.

RESPONSE / CONTEXT

The application sought extra commencement time only. The official project record says no other changes to the approved development were proposed, so the decision should not be read as a fresh approval of a redesigned scheme or confirmation that construction has started.

WHAT HAPPENS NEXT

The register still records the 27 August extension. Check the determination notice for the revised commencement deadline and later construction evidence. The old five-to-ten-day publication window has passed; it is not an upcoming milestone.
