Residential planning zones: motions

The question put

That this house: (1) notes: (a) the extraordinary population targets unilaterally announced for Victorian municipalities by the Allan Labor government; (b) the 10 planned high-rise, high-density zones declared by Labor without consultation, including so-called ‘catchment zones’ over huge swathes of residential and often heritage-listed suburbs, proposed to have six-storey development approval; (c) the removal of significant planning powers from municipal councils and local communities and the curtailment of third-party appeal rights; and (2) calls on the Allan Labor government to undertake proper consultation with affected councils and communities, to their satisfaction, on its announced plans for 10 high-rise, high-density zones, namely Hume, Boroondara, Stonnington, Monash, Glen Eira, Whittlesea, Frankston, Kingston, Bayside, Moonee Valley, Darebin, Maroondah and Whitehorse.
