Rudd should spend about a week at the top end of "Perth" - that's the 100Km long sprawl on the west coast. What will he find? A mind numbing sea of inadequately designed homes, little if any sense of community, zero cultural presence, everything needing a car to get to and most things a decent drive away.

Call Perth a city if you will but I never have. It has no soul, and any sense of community it had has dwindled. People used to be friendly - that's gone. Now we are driven and driven hard by resources. We suck up thousands of people a week to join the FIFO brigade. Money has flowed and we have all of its attendant downside.

If you say more people, the have to live somewhere. Extending the suburbs north and south is getting very expensive in infrastructure costs. Other cities are much worse - Sydney for e.g

Rudd has no idea. No vision. Now is the time to stop the rot. We certainly have plenty of land but water is scarce and getting scarcer.

I agree Pelican and Examinator;

That's why I think it's important that councils should only have the right to build anything when a local constituent demands it (publishing their name to it), and the people nearby the proposed development site must be asked for permission on the exact intended structure before it can go ahead, and to top it off, the rest of the constituency may also participate/vote on it via referenda for a few weeks before it is cleared.

That should seal up any cracks a crooked developer or councilor would try to exploit to bypass public consultancy.
Now all we need are more people like Ted Mack getting voted into councils, and less people like, well, pretty much the rest of the councils across NSW.

I see my point about the Laws of Thermodynamics stands confirmed.
