According to a government report released last week, Sydney’s housing infrastructure will continue to sprawl and our addiction to cars will grow unabated if no action is taken.
Lord Mayor Clover Moore reacted to the State of Australian Cities Report 2010 by calling on the Federal Government to finally act on the challenges facing Sydney.
“For more than three years the Lord Mayors of all Australia’s capital cities have argued for a formal agreement between Federal, State and City government, based on the successful model from Vancouver Canada, which would help to deliver specific projects in line with agreed national outcomes,” said Cr Moore.
