• the creation of a vibrant waterfront commercial precinct and public open space that will provide recreational amenity and a tourist destination for local residents and visitors to Perth 
• the creation of sustainable employment opportunities in food and beverage, retail, service, commercial, tourism and marine related industries 
• the provision of diverse housing density and choice, within high-quality residential precincts 
• The delivery of an economically sustainable marina development including; 
  • boat pens, boat stacking facilities, marine facilities and services to meet the future demands of a growing Perth metropolitan population. 
  • upgraded facilities for existing recreational marine-based clubs and users. 
  • marine related commercial activities 
  • public boat launching ramps and associated facilities, including trailer parking areas 
  • while providing adequate separation between these activities and other land uses 
• the appropriate management of environmental values.
