Earlier this year, the QLD PIA Women in Planning Network, in conjunction with Place Score, conducted a survey to understand how we can shape more equitable cities, regions and neighbourhoods across QLD.
To hear the results register for this free seminar: planning.org.au/events/event…
A great quote from the late Alan Fogg on planning laws (via David Nicholls).
“The flotsam of frequent amendments and the jetsam of redundant provisions combine to confuse the accuracy of a picture of crucially important laws in an area which has always been a political football.”

After many years, many great projects and many great people, I have resigned from Ethos Urban (the former Buckley Vann in Qld). Will have a short break and then keen to move on to new things....which I hope will also involve great projects and great people!
