A revised plan to create a subdivision in a rural area of Herron may be returned to the Environmental Protection Authority (EPA), after it was knocked back by the body in 2018.
In July 2017, the City of Mandurah received an application to rezone the land from "Rural" to "Rural Residential" to allow for construction on the site.
The land in question is Lot 21 South Estuary Road and Lot 7 Dunkeld Drive.
Council agreed to pass the matter onto the EPA, however, they rejected the rezoning plan in April 2018.
The applicant, Rowe Group, was then propelled to revise their request.
The applicant have since shaken-up their proposal to include the creation of a 16 lot cluster subdivision and a 52 hectare conservation parcel at the site.
On February 26, City of Mandurah councillors will vote on whether the revised plan should be put to the EPA again.
The matter was discussed during the elected representatives February 12 meeting, however, councillors will have to wait until their upcoming meeting to cast an official vote.
During that meeting, Mandurah's deputy mayor Caroline Knight suggested alternative recommendations to the proposal put before her fellow elected representatives.
Cr Knight suggested the move be supported, however, urged them to advise the applicant that there was reservations regarding the plan due to several factors.
Impacts on vegetation, the blow to threatened species and the process around ongoing management of the parcel of land were just some of the many issues Ms Knight outlined.
Councillors were will need principal support to pass the recommendations.
