Abstract
There is no approved Town Planning Scheme for the Central Area of Perth. The Perth City Council have shown a reluctance to comply with the requirements of the Perth Metropolitan Region Planning Authority, the Town Planning Board and the Minister as arbiter in the central area of Perth. Here the intensity of development and the need to provide for adequate traffic movement and car parking, while protecting the quality of the environment, present problems which are unique in the Perth Metropolitan Region. In this article Barrie Melotte traces the history of unsuccessful attempts in the post-war period to provide an effective planning framework for the Perth Central Area and stresses the need to provide such a framework as soon as possible.
