Planning issues affect our Northside community in a wide variety of ways. Long-term strategic planning is required to meet the big serious social, environmental and economic challenges, while small local planning issues can have large positive or negative effects on our lifestyles, health, and enjoyment of our everyday lives. People joining our Planning and Development Working Group have an opportunity to explore what we can do together to address how good planning and people-oriented development control measures can do to improve community life in our area.

By listening to residents’ ideas, concerns and suggestions and embracing research, innovation and best-practice models from other jurisdictions, we hope to work constructively with elected representatives to achieve better outcomes.

Anyone who would like to become involved or find out more out our activities can contact the Transport Working Group Convenor at planning@ncvoices.org.au
