Churchlands

Image of public art

The local community describes Churchlands as caring, diverse and friendly neighbourhood. To better understand what is means to be ‘a local’ our suburb profile seeks to understand the local stories Koora (past), Yeyi (present), Boordawan (future) and respond to Ngalang Maya (our place). This snapshot identifies the unique character of Churchlands neighbourhood and helps the City rethink how we deliver services with a local focus. 

Churchlands received its name after the land was sold to Catholic Bishop Matthew Gibney, and little development occurred in Churchlands until extensive subdivisions took place the 1980s.

What it means to be a 'local'

Local issues

Local focus

The City has created Locally-led Stirling to drive deeper connection at a local suburb level to listen and respond with a local focus.  At the heart of this Locally-led approach is an understanding that local people know what they need and a vision for everyone to get involved in shaping what it means to be “a local”.

We want to bring neighbours together, invest in local stories and inspire opportunities to work together. To find out more about Locally-led Stirling, visit Shaping our City

If you are looking for ways to get involved in your local area, please contact one of the City’s Local Engagement Officers by emailing getinvolved@stirling.wa.gov.au.

Local Q&A

What question do you have about how we deliver services in your area?  To participate in your local Q&A submit a question here and responses to FAQs will be shared below.

My bin has not been collected, what should I do?
If your bin isn’t emptied as scheduled, please lodge a residential bin request here. Please note, we can only lodge a request for a missed bin after 4.00pm on the day of your scheduled collection. This ensures that we allow enough time for our drivers to complete their collections.

How do I make an on-demand waste collection booking?
The City has a range of on-demand collection services. Residents can access these services once every financial year (1 July - 30 June). These services can be booked through the online form here.

How can I view and receive my Rates Notices?
As a property owner you can view current and past rates notices by logging into your Property Owner Portal account here. Within the portal you will also be able to opt to receive your rates notices via email instead of physical mail.

How do I submit a CoS park or facility maintenance request?
Please complete this form to request maintenance on City of Stirling owned infrastructure such as buildings and facilities, parks, reserves and natural areas, roads and paths.  

How do I report a personal or neighbourhood safety concern?
You can refer to the following page to find out who to call in case of an emergency. The City of Stirling aims to provide a strong sense of safety in our community by working with the Police, residents, community organisations and other key partners. Our joint approach to community safety and crime prevention guides the City’s safety initiatives and helps create a safer City.

Local plans

Residential development

Residential dwellings are characterised by large, modern two storey designs that have an average lot size of 850 m2 while the popularity of infill development has resulted in duplexes and units becoming a significant form of residential construction throughout the area.

A small deli and growers' market on Flynn Street meet local shopping needs.

Public open space and community infrastructure

Churchlands has 8ha of public open space, which includes seven local open spaces and one community open space, with good walkable proximity to local residents.

A significant landmark is Herdsman Lake, an important regional recreational area and wildlife sanctuary offering a number of educational and passive recreational opportunities for local residents and the wider community.
