CALL TO ACTION - Key Strategic Planning Issues in Victoria 2010-2011

In the lead up to the 2010 State Election the PIA Victorian Committee determined to identify and advocate key strategic planning issues to the various relevant political parties and community for the next few years. This initiative was inspired by a similar activity referred to as the ‘Millennium Paper’ undertaken by the Division’s committee in 1999. The 2010 - 2011 version has been titled the “PIA Call to Action”.

The division committee initially identified 14 topics while preparing the Call to Action. These have since been refined to 6 issues, each issue with nominated ‘actions’ to address the Institute’s concerns along with an ‘implementation strategy’ which explains how the solutions to the issues can be addressed.

In developing the call to action, the PIA Committee has noted the member’s comments through a variety of communication and consultation channels, including recent seminars and workshops, member surveys and articles in Planning News.
