As cities and regions adapt to profound economic, societal and technological shifts, new urban and environmental problems are emerging—from inadequate systems of transport and infrastructure to declining housing affordability, biodiversity loss, and human-induced climate change.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eAustralian Urban Land Use Planning\u003c\/i\u003e provides a practical understanding of the principles, processes, and mechanisms for strategic and proactive urban governance. Substantially updated and expanded, this second edition explains and compares the legislation, policy and plan-making, development assessment, and dispute resolution processes of Australia's eight state and territorial planning jurisdictions, as well as the changing role of the Commonwealth in environmental and urban policy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis new edition also extends the coverage of planning practice, with a new chapter on planning for climate change, a more detailed treatment of planning for housing diversity and affordability, and a comprehensive analysis of the NSW planning system and its evolution over the last 30 years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe book offers insights into the complex interactions that occur in planning and provides a guide on how it can be navigated within the Australian context.
