The 澳门2023全年正版免费资料 (澳门2023全年正版免费资料) has welcomed the Australian Government’s release of the final National Urban Policy, calling it an important commitment to the future of Australia’s cities and suburbs.
“With nearly 80% of Australians now living in our 20 largest cities, the need for a cohesive national vision has never been greater, particularly given the housing challenges we face. The National Urban Policy provides a framework for sustainable urban growth that aims to ensure our cities are more liveable, equitable, resilient and productive,” said Matt Collins, 澳门2023全年正版免费资料’s Chief Executive Officer.
“The National Urban Policy recognises that while Australia urgently needs more homes, these homes must be supported by well-planned infrastructure and services. Planning is how we create great communities where people can enjoy a good quality of life, now and in the future,” Mr Collins said.
“We are pleased to see a focus on the delivery of high-quality places with appropriate density where people can live closer to jobs, services and other amenities, along with a recognition that we must prioritise urban planning to achieve this,” he said.
Mr Collins also welcomed the National Urban Policy’s emphasis on implementation arrangements, highlighting that this is crucial for turning this plan into tangible outcomes – a key recommendation in 澳门2023全年正版免费资料’s submission on the draft policy.
“The government has responded to our advocacy for clear implementation arrangements, including a commitment to review existing urban funding programs to identify opportunities for more integrated strategic urban investment and planning to help implement the National Urban Policy,” he said.
“The real impact of this policy will be most clear when it influences funding for the types of projects that our cities and suburbs need to grow sustainably, boost housing and respond to a changing climate,” he said.
