The development application for 40-44 Worley Street, Willagee was approved on Tuesday, 16 June 2026 by the Metro Inner Development Assessment Panel.

The development is in accordance with the planning framework and meets the objectives of the Planning Scheme, Willagee Structure Plan and Archibald Hub Policy Area. The panel noted that whilst there was some objection to the proposal , the matters raised have been adequately resolved and the development does not unduly impact surrounding land uses or residents.   

The panel noted that there was also support for the proposal which will add to the diversification of housing stock. The proposal demonstrated a good level of design and met the requirements of SPP 7.0. The proposal exceeds the soft landscape and tree planting requirement of the R Codes and provides additional tree canopy and amenity in the neighbourhood. The development application was unanimously supported in line with the conditions and advice notes provided in the RAR with some minor amendments.
