Why Is My Town Planner Taking So Long? Let’s Break It Down

It's World Town Planning Day today - not something I would have acknowledged in previous roles! But living and working in a bustling, developing city that has seen phenomenal growth over the last 30 years, and will continue to see it for at least the next 30, I'm amazed at the challenges, considerations and outcomes our planning team have to work through every day.
These guys have to live in the future. Very few residents are thinking about the challenges that come with a growing population. There aren't many people who are designing things for use in 10, or 20 years, but that's what this team is doing every day. They're like futurologists with blueprints.
There's federal, state, local regulations to consider; there are environmental and sustainable issues to consider; increasingly there are technological and social challenges to respond to, and all while making our public spaces beautiful and useable and accessible and, in the case of much of Mandurah, iconic.
Thanks planning team - you do an incredible job!

Director, Strategy and Economic Development at City of Mandurah
Happy World Town Planning Day!
Town planners are in very short supply accross Australia. Luckily, we're fortunate enough to have a team of highly skilled and dedicated individuals at the City of Mandurah.
The team have played a pivotal role in shaping the City's growth from c. 50,000 residents at the turn of the century to ~100,000 now.
Our new challenge is to shift to urban infill (given greenfield development opps are close to exhausted) and enhance vibrancy, while preserving amenity on our journey to a population of ~120,000 over the next decade.
Exciting times ahead.

The City of San Luis Obispo certainly is evolving. This time-swipe map showcases changes from 2014 to 2023 highlighting a major development focus along Tank Farm Road and Broad Street. Progress is well underway with remediation, and clearing of several buildings and a mobile home park.
The city council's 2022 approval of 280 new housing units and 12,500 square feet of commercial space at 600 Tank Farm Road marks the beginning of significant changes in this area. Alongside this, the Chevron-owned property spanning 332 acres is also poised for development and potential annexation into the city. This move will enable further improvements to Tank Farm Road, including enhanced bicycle and pedestrian access, meeting modern standards for city infrastructure.
This new mixed-use project at 600 Tank Farm joins two other major developments in the area: 650 Tank Farm (mixed-use housing) and a new assisted living complex at the corner of Tank Farm and Broad Street. A new roundabout is also planned for the intersection of Tank Farm and Santa Fe Road, with construction set to start in phases.
What do you think about this new development and planned roundabout? Drop a comment ⬇️

Teamwork makes the dream work. 🤝
The Woodbridge - Perth Amboy Redevelopment Plan, adopted this past May by both municipalities, represents a collaborative effort between the City Of Perth Amboy and the Township Of Woodbridge to proactively prepare for the vacancy of the Buckeye terminal site by establishing a cohesive and realistic set of zoning parameters to enable #environmentalremediation and enhance this gateway to the City. 🚢
The Plan calls for significant upgrades to various infrastructural elements such as the separation of the combined sewer outfall within the Redevelopment Area, the provision of new public streetscape amenities, and the creation of a new #waterfrontpark, an area previously inaccessible to the public. ⛵
Topology's William Kurzenberger & Graham Petto, P.P., AICP worked with #Woodbridge planning professionals to draft the Plan, and to ensure that appropriate measures were taken to enhance the appearance of the site, ensure sustainable building practices, and protect the City center from burdensome truck traffic. 🚛
