From Our State Government - Budget Time Propaganda
From the MINISTER FOR PLANNING
Projects to rejuvenate major suburban centres and meet the challenges of population growth are the focus of a $75 million plan to keep Victoria a great place to live, work and raise a family.
Planning Minister Justin Madden said the 2007-08 State Budget delivered on the Bracks Government’s commitment to meet the challenge of planning for a growing population.
“Since 1999, the Government has legislated to protect Melbourne’s precious Green Wedges, direct housing to where new communities can access schools, shops and transport, and streamlined planning processes,” he said.
“We made a commitment to help councils implement the Melbourne 2030 blueprint to manage growth over the next 30 years. “We also promised to give local government the tools and expertise needed to update and strengthen local planning schemes so that communities, developers and councils have greater certainty about what is allowed.
“Today we are delivering on those promises, with funding to facilitate investment, boost local economies, create jobs and make Victoria an even more attractive place to raise a family.”
