And now - we wait…. update 11 Dec

Today - as hundreds of residents and firefighters fought to save homes and properties from multiple bushfires in and around Perth, $atterley was delivering its closing submission to WA’s Tribunal seeking to reverse 34 years’ opposition against the Anglican Church’s proposed North $toneville townsite.

Our thoughts are with those spending tonight in evacuation centres, and with firefighters still at the fire scenes, controlling and extinguishing the blazes ahead of a forecast heatwave weekend.

All 10,000+ pages of evidence in this 3-decades’ long North $toneville saga have now been submitted to Judge Henry Jackson… with a decision expected in early 2026.

Here’s WA Today’s report on this final hearing day…

North $toneville Update 9th Dec

Save Perth Hills, the Shire of Mundaring and WA’s highest planning authority, the Planning Commission, today collectively confirmed rejection of Satterley and the Anglican Church’s North $toneville plan - for the 3rd time since 2019.

After 5 years before the State Administrative Tribunal, (SAT) including formal hearings across the last 3 months, closing submissions were delivered today by SPH, the Shire and WAPC.

Satterley is scheduled to deliver their closing submission on Thursday…

Big thanks to the SPH supporters who attended today in solidarity with us …

A decision by SAT is expected early 2026

SAT final days

This week sees the final two days of $atterley’s attempt to, effectively, overturn North $toneville’s 34 years of constant rejections.

Meanwhile, not even a week into Summer, and the East coast is seeing the trauma of bushfire, that we know too-well, here in our increasingly bushfire-prone Shire of Mundaring.

That long and lived-experience helped Save Perth Hills to be accepted as a Party to the State Tribunal proceedings - an historic decision allowing a community group a ‘seat at the table’, to explain, first hand, the human reality of bushfire fallout.

This story - from the weekend’s NSW fire disaster, highlights important perspectives that we provided the Tribunal hearing - specifically, how fast fire approaches and the unpredictability of evacuations - in this case, to stay and help an elderly neighbour.
