Land use and development zones on Rottnest Island
A core component of the Rottnest Island Management Plan 2023-28 (RIMP) is the Land Use Plan, which categorises land use across the island as Infrastructure and Support Services; Mixed Use; Open Space; or Reserve.
What is the Land Use Plan?
How land is used on Wadjemup is regulated by the Rottnest Island Authority Act 1987 (the Act). The Act defines the boundary of the settlement; the Land Use Plan identifies potential land use areas within the settlement and across the island.
