About this document

Local governments are at the front line when it comes to managing our natural resources. Their day to day planning decisions have a direct impact on the environment.

This role is especially important in rapidly growing urban areas like the Perth Metropolitan Region. Perth’s population is expected to increase by about 40 percent, or more than half a million people, in the next 25 years.

And that inevitably puts major pressures on remaining undeveloped areas in what is one of the world’s most biodiverse cities.
