A Bondi-inspired rooftop development proposed for Scarborough has been rejected by local government planners citing a lack of parking, despite it being built on top of a multi-story car park.

Proposals for the oceanfront Sunset Boulevard venue, revealed in July, included its use for weeknight movies, yoga and pilates classes, live music, wedding hire, fashion shows and somewhere to eat and drink with views stretching from Hillarys to Fremantle.

ISpy Perth director Robert Redmond said it would attract tourists and bring vibrancy to the area, while also reducing antisocial behaviour in the six-story "dead space that hasn't been used for eight years".

But City of Stirling planners say the venue will cause noise, light, traffic and parking problems, recommending that council refuse the proposal at a meeting to be held on Tuesday night.
