An alliance of the state’s peak interest groups today released a scorecard on the Government’s new 25 year planning strategy for Sydney, and has vowed to remain as a watchdog role in reviewing its delivery.
The scorecard rated the Government’s performance against its own aims and the document’s seven key strategies. The individual rankings were as follows:
• Economy and Employment – very good
• Centres and Corridors – good
• Housing – okay / Human services – poor
• Transport – poor
• Environment and Resources – okay
• Parks and Public Places – good
• Implementation – good / Accountability – poor
