business licenses and permits – City of Joondalup

Trader’s permits

The City’s Local Government and Public Property Local Law 2014 requires vendors selling goods and services in a public place, to hold a Trader’s Permit.

When assessing an application for a Trader’s Permit, consideration is given to parking, public safety, traffic flow, amenity of the location and the consistency of the trading activity with the existing land use.

For trading activities that include the sale of food, the registration of a food business must also be considered.

Non-coastal locations

Trader’s Permits can be considered within the parking bays of parks and reserves throughout the City. Applications for locations associated with parks and reserves must include a map of the proposed site, along with photographs and documentation of the food vehicle.

Coastal locations

Many vendors would prefer a stationary location at one of the City’s beachside car parks. Coastal locations that are considered suitable for trading to occur are displayed in the following table. The table identifies the current usage for each approved coastal location and the restrictions associated with each site.

Further information is available on the What is a Food Business fact sheet.

If you are taking over an existing food business with no changes to the premises, only a completed application form and a copy of your menu is likely to be required.

If you are starting a new food business, then a copy of the floor plans and elevations, menu, recipes and labelling information may be required. Please refer to the Starting a New Food Business web page.

Outdoor eating areas (alfresco activities)

Outdoor or ‘alfresco’ eating refers to an area in which tables, chairs and other structures are provided for the consumption of food or drink on public land, such as within the verge, adding vibrancy and activity to an area.

Certain approvals are required before a business can provide an outdoor eating area. The City assesses applications for outdoor eating areas by considering the potential effect of such use on the amenity, function and character of an area.

Planning requirements

Where the alfresco dining (outdoor eating) proposal meets all the provisions of the Alfresco Activities Local Planning Policy, development (planning) approval will not be required. Instead, to confirm that development (planning) approval is not required, a completed Alfresco Activities Self-Assessment Checklist is required to be submitted with your Outdoor Eating Permit (see below) for review by the City.

Development (planning) approval will be required for an alfresco dining proposal where it does not comply with the provisions of the City’s Alfresco Local Planning Policy. Please refer to the Development (Planning) Approval Checklist – Alfresco Activities for application requirements.

Fees to submit an application for development (planning) approval are in accordance with the Planning Services Schedule of Fees and Charges.

Environmental health requirements

An Outdoor Eating Permit is also required to operate an outdoor eating area that is located on public land, such as footpaths. Details that are required to be submitted with a new application are available within the City’s Outdoor Eating Checklist.

Outdoor Eating Permits are required to be issued annually.

Application, Permit and Use of Land fees can be viewed in the Environmental Health Schedule of Fees and Charges.

Street entertainment – approval requirements

Street entertainment generally refers to a performance in a public place or on local government land such as the playing of a musical instrument, singing, dancing, mime and acrobatic displays and is often referred to as busking.

The City’s Local Government and Public Property Local Law 2014 contains provisions relating to Street Entertainment. All street entertainers must be the holder of a valid street entertainers permit issued by the City of Joondalup.

An application for a permit can be made in writing and should include the following information:

Number of performers
A site plan showing the proposed location/s
