This chapter focuses on housing policies, arguing for an attitude towards development control which accepts that residents should have a high degree of control over what happens within their neighbourhoods. These proscriptions, sensitively developed and agreed by community leaders, should limit development only when absolutely necessary. The discussions cover public–individual partnership to encourage housing renovation; projects for transformations; physical planning policy and regulations; finance; and land and property taxes.Less
