Towards an urban policy contract for Australia

By Bryan Moulds - posted Tuesday, 15 May 2001

In 2000 the Property Council worked with the Council of Capital City Lord Mayors to produce "The Capital Cities and Australia's Future" and has held two national conferences on the subject, featuring speakers of international repute.

The Property Council is part of a national coalition of bodies as diverse as the Australian Conservation Foundation, ACOSS, the RAPI and the Australian Local Government Association in preparing a joint communiqué seeking a national commitment to urban and regional strategy and policy for Australia.

The Property Council is committed to a three-year investment of over $100,000 per annum into urban policy development, soliciting the best ideas of local and international experience. A brief to seek the highest level of expertise to work on these outcomes will be released during June 2001.

A workshop of the nation's leading investment and development company CEOs, economists and political leaders. will be established as part of this process
