Activity Centre Program

What? A state planning program that fast-tracks high-density development in selected suburbs by overriding local controls and reducing community rights.

Impact? It dumps major growth into a handful of suburbs without the infrastructure, affordability measures or planning safeguards to support it, strips communities of notice and challenge rights, and puts developer profits ahead of liveability, fairness and good planning. Also results in homogenised housing options, excluding families from these locations.
