Urban Consolidation: Beyond the Rhetoric
This paper addresses the question of urban consolidation within the context of the Perth Metropolitan Area in Western Australia. Findings from one western suburbs survey of residents' attitudes towards higher density residential development indicate high levels of community disapproval towards the prospect of increased residential densities. These findings, together with others drawn from similar surveys, suggest that local governments and urban planners need to pay much greater consideration to factors such as suburban character and residential stability when scheduling areas for increased residential development.
