1 Urban Growth Management in Seven New World cities: Aligning visions and quality neighbourhood outcomes New Zealand Centre for Sustainable Cities 14 August 2013 Errol Haarhoff & Lee Beattie School of Architecture and Planning The University of Auckland New Zealand
2 The Auckland Plan Auckland is New Zealand s largest metropolitan area (approximately third of NZ s population 4.5 million) Auckland Spatial Plan: Creating the World s most Livable City By 2040 an extra 1m people in 400,000 dwellings; approximately 300,000 (70/40 split) within the MUL through urban intensification Draft Unitary Plan Implementation of the Auckland Plan (Oct 2013)
3 Auckland s Urban Growth Management Strategies Auckland, like a number of number of new world cities, has developed Urban Growth Management Strategies. Seeking to address our growth pressures: from MUL to RUB, but not new..
4 Compact cities will deliver liveable Cities? Why are we doing this? Understanding what liveability means? Housing and the neighbourhood community. Place making Origins in the USA in the 1980 s concerned about the destruction of productive agricultural land and natural areas around cites as a consequence of uncontrolled sprawl policies, plans and laws to limited urban expansion Criticised as anti-growth and development leads to smarter plans approaches for economic growth and environmental protection sustainable urban growth agendas and policies emerged, recognising that low density was associated with inefficiency, car dependency, and noxious environmental emissions (Newman and Kenworthy, 1989) ideas of compact city, TOD s, walkable neighbourhoods, etc
5 Liveable Cities More recent iterations of urban growth management approaches have shifted the focus away from smart growth to more directly address urban consolidation strategies that deliver urban lifestyles and liveability. This evaluative research tends to focus on the obstacles to achieving these aims Liveability and urban quality of life compact development (and urban consolidation) has now been associated, albeit uncritically, with greater liveability and better urban quality of life (Alves, 2004)
6 Similar urban growth management approaches in many new world cities Study of urban growth management strategies in Perth, Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne, Vancouver, Portland and Auckland* Principal Investigators: Errol Haarhoff and Lee Beattie (School of Architecture and Urban Planning) * Initial funding from the University of Auckland Faculty Research Development Fund
7 Urban Growth Management: common approach Establishment an UGB a containment line. Concentrate future growth within that containment line. Focus future growth around identified activity centres and corridors in close proximity to public transit ( Transit oriented development TOD s) More compact development and higher density residential typologies. Urban Growth Management Strategies for the metropolitan regions of Vancouver, Portland, SE Queensland, Melbourne, Perth, Auckland and Sydney.
8 More compact development Portland, Oregon Pearl District (Downtown Urban Regeneration) Willow Creek (TOD) Mississippi Avenue (suburban retrofit).
9 More compact development Vancouver Vancouverism downtown high rise Village on False Creek regeneration Arbutus suburban infill
10 Making communities and neighbourhoods
11 Research Questions: So if all these cities have similar urban growth management strategy's what are the differences and why do some potential work and others don t? What are the appropriate governance arrangements that best facilitate smart growth strategies? How effective is the strategy at holding the urban containment line? Does more compact urban development typologies results in amenable living environments that meet individual and communities aspirations? How do they translate regional policy into action on the ground )local policy) and achieve good quality urban design outcomes? Is the market willing to invest in these urban typologies?
12 Last part of the research project Case Studies of Higher Density Housing in each of the eight cities. Connecting urban planning visions to implementation For this Seminar: CASE STUDY: University Hill Bundoora, City of Whittlesea, Melbourne
13 CASE STUDY: University Hill Bundoora, City of Whittlesea, Melbourne
14 Urban growth management- Melbourne 2040 and 5 million. Woodcock et al (2010), observed, while non-statutory, seven years into the implementation of Melbourne 2030 not only has there been very little intensification of activity centres in established suburbs, but there have been few urban design visions that might engage the public imagination or that of the development industry Goodman and Moloney s (2001) examination of the spatial distribution of new housing in the City of Casey By measuring changes in population density distribution, their study shows that there has been no increasing density within walking distances of designated activity centres or transit routes, thus not yet delivering on the strategic policy aspirations and goals.
15 University Hill The challenges of achieving urban consolidation the urban peripheries that are traditionally dominated by low-density suburban communities, high levels of car dependency and limited local employment.
16 University Hill The challenges of achieving urban consolidation the urban peripheries that are traditionally dominated by low-density suburban communities, high levels of car dependency and limited local employment. The University Hill regeneration development project is locate adjacent to RMIT s Bundoora campus 18 kilometres from the Melbourne s CBD Was designated as a Specialised Activity Centre within the Melbourne 2030 strategic urban planning document The 104 hectare site was purchased by the developer (MAB Corporation) in 2003, and when complete is planned to have around 1000 housing units and generate approximately 4000 jobs (Victoria State Government, 2010) So where is it?

27 Protections of ecological values Open space images from MAB website
28 Existing Retirement Housing Heritage area A walkable neighbourhood.
29 University Hill So why did this work? Interviewed all of the key stakeholders involved in the project s development and implementation, including: The property developer (MAD); The developer s urban planning and urban design consultants; Senior Council officials; and Key officials from the State Government s Department of Planning and Community Development To see if any key factors could be determined leading to its potential success
30 University Hill The key factors that were gained as to how the project was delivered and what potentially made it successful from the interviews process is set out under a number of subject headings Shared Vision Alignment of Plans and Policies Consenting Process and Partnerships Design-led approach Strategic implementation
31 University Hill Shared Vision The council had a vision concerning job creation in their peripheral metropolitan location concerns of becoming a dormant suburban. It wanted to target light blue and professional occupations and businesses, The Council had a view that every new housing unit should also be followed by at least one new employment opportunity The Council vision was initially shared in part by the developer who wanted to consider a mix-use concept as a key driver for any potential commercial success in the site, opposed to just big-box retail and/or industrial usages But would require further housing to make it work. So there shared vision laid the basis for a collaborative urban planning approach, where all the parties were treated as equal partners through the process
32 University Hill Alignment of Plans and Policies All the parties commented that the lack of State government involvement was beneficial to achieving the outcomes in practice The approval of the Development Plan Overlay (DPO) for mixed-use development concept was a critical element in the process. This removed third party rights from the Development application (RC process). However, no community push back from the project This allowed the developer a high degree of certainly for the up-coming consent process and thereby provided the ability to invest in the project over the long run However, this flexible approach to the location of land use activities was a move away from the traditional conformance based approach to zoning etc
33 Masterplan: Development Overlay Plan (DOP): Over lapping precincts
34 University Hill Consenting Process and Partnerships All parties stressed that the successful outcome was a result of a strong partnership and shared visions between: The Council (and its responsibility to the community) The developer (and its commercial responsibilities) and The urban planning/design consultants Also underscored, is that the individuals concerned all had a long-term commitment to the project, with the same staff being involved for its duration removing any problems of the transfer of knowledge between policy formation and implementation. The developer saw the success of the project lying in the Council s willingness to provide flexibility in the consenting process, and in the absence of prescriptive urban planning controls
35 University Hill Design-led approach The developer clearly recognised the important of quality design, and engaging with a design-led approach The consultant-led enquiry by design workshop provided a platform for transforming the visions into a tangle master plan that had the necessary flexibility for the developer With the Council to be fully accountable for the consenting processes No consultants flying in and then flying out a few days later A critical element in this design led approach, was the active and detailed ongoing involvement of the council officers involved in the implementation of the design led outcomes
36 University Hill Conclusions The degree of cooperation between the key stakeholders to deliver community benefits while minimising risk on the part of the developer by removing the need for third party notice, decision and appeal at the implementation stage But there other key factors behind its success that are perhaps beyond the remit of regulators and urban planners, especially in the New Zealand context? These factors includes: The availability of a large land holding in single ownership that has strategic location, Enlightened developers who had the will and resources to take a commercial risk
37 University Hill A local authority willing to create more flexible rules to achieve its visions for local employment, and Excellent urban planners, urban designers and architects able to produce an award winning outcome This coupled with a situation where all the key parties (including on-going political support) were involved in both the policy formulation and implementation, created a situation where the agreed shared vision could be delivered in practice. However, the question is where this project could have been delivered without all this factors considered above been realised?
