May 12, 2020
The article by Brett Odgers was published in the Walter Burley Griffin Society’s News Update 73, May 2020. This is a useful factual article that outlines the damage to Canberra’s planning in the 21st Century. It refers to the lack of interest by the Federal Government, the frustrating and ineffective public consultation run by both the Government planning agencies. It also touches on the total disregard for expert planning critique, such as that by the Walter Burley Griffin Society’s Professor James Weirrick in 2007 in a submission on the key projects of the Griffin Legacy Report. The WBGS submission can be found in this website under submissions. This is one of two articles and the second yet to be published.
