About this Unit
This unit is an introduction to environmental planning for “non-planners”. It is particularly targeted at those who will work with Environmental Planners within a local and state government context. This unit will provide the student with a brief introduction to the ways that the environmental planning system can be used to protect the natural environment and/or encourage sustainable development practices. There is a particular focus on setting goals for environmental protection and then looking at ways in which the current planning regulations can be used to assist with achieving these goals. Current metropolitan planning and strategy will be examined including the Metropolitan Strategy for Sydney and subordinate Subregional Strategies.
