WA’s population is set to boom. The City of Stirling’s plans fly in the face of the reality. Sign our petition today!

WA Business news stated yesterday “Perth’s population is set to overtake that of Brisbane over the next 15 years, with experts forecasting the city will experience the highest population growth of all capital cities over the next 50 years .

Western Australia’s population is projected to almost triple in size by 2061, on medium growth assumptions, from 2.4 million people in 2012 to 6. 4million. The Australian Bureau of Statistics released its predictions yesterday.”

With these announcements, we would wonder why the City of Stirling would propose a planning change to ban all multiple dwellings (apartments) in low rise developments in areas zoned less than R60.Currently low rise apartments are only prohibited in areas zoned at R35 and lower. This goes against the state government efforts to boost housing affordability through urban infill. Help us stop this and sign our petition at http://www.stopstirling.com.au/
