Tuesday 19th - Wednesday 20th October
Dockside Convention Centre, Sydney

The national Local Government Urban Planning & Development Summit will provide high-quality presentations detailing leading-edge urban planning and community infrastructure development solutions, and analysis of future planning reforms and how they will impact councils.

To be staged in the wake of the August Federal Election, this important summit will analyse current and upcoming legislative reform and the future role of councils in planning and approving development in existing suburbs and towns, as well as greenfield areas.

With councils across Australia under increasing pressure to adequately plan for urban growth, optimise development approval systems and fund new community infrastructure that supports growing populations, this summit meeting will provide local government planners, managers and councillors with high-quality advice and leading-edge case studies that will help them plan sustainable community growth and development within their own municipalities.

Other key areas of analysis will include: new trends in urban design, town planning and development assessment technologies; best practice strategic planning; and examples of council projects that have developed and revitalised existing urban areas.

Speakers will include representatives of the summit’s supporting organisations the National Growth Areas Alliance and the National Sea Change Taskforce, key government officials and senior council managers who will describe case studies of leading-edge urban planning solutions.
