Perths full could Immo's please move elsewhere
The locals are fed up with the newcomers outsrippping infrastructure , so if you refugges could plant your arse elsewhere it would help .
Stop the growth
WITH the population-growth forecast for Perth over the next 30 years, I can't help but wonder where all these people are going to live. Oh yes, that's right, they just clear more old-growth bush for the housing developments.
All these big companies are making money out of land development but they have no consideration for the bush. On the other hand, the timber industry regenerates what it logs for future generations and job stability and what does it get for it? Less resource and no future for the industry.
If I was the Government I would be doing something about population growth so that we are not putting pressure on our environment.

What's your view on Heritage buildings and protection?
My view is, document them then knock 'em down. One thing they do here which irks me is keep the facade and build a new building inside. I find that rediculous.

If a building can last a few hundred years its proved its worth.

They're called apartment buildings. The idea is that you can fit more people into the same space.
Even with sprawl, Perth is a dot on the map of Australia. So what if it triples in area? I don't thik even Aussies realize how big Australia is.

WATER restrictions in WA would become permanent under legislation to be introduced into State Parliament next month.
The move - by Independent MP Phillip Pendal - would cement existing year-round restrictions which limit sprinkler use to specific days of the week.
It would also introduce a sliding scale of more severe restrictions which would be put in place when needed.
