The Western Australia Planning Commission (WAPC) is a government agency responsible for managing land use and development in Western Australia. It develops plans and policies to guide how land is used, ensuring sustainable growth, community needs, and environmental protection. The WAPC approves subdivision and development proposals, coordinates regional planning, and works with local governments to implement land use strategies. Its goal is to create well-planned communities, facilitate economic development, and balance development with conservation efforts across the state.
