Population shift worries planners
by GD on Thu Jul 10, 2008 11:02 am
Jersey is having to make an early reshuffle of its long-term plans because they've fallen out of date more quickly than expected.
The ten-year Island Plan approved in 2002 now falls short because of the rapidly changing nature of the population.
Planning Minister Freddie Cohen is attempting to address issues like how to meet the increasing demand for housing without damaging the green zones and what sort of development should be allowed for tourism and agriculture to flourish.
Senator Cohen wants to hear from as many people as possible following publication of a paper which sets options for the future. But how will he get the feedback necessary to make such critical decisions. (from CIOnline)
"Increase housing without damaging green zones"... Almost Impossible

"Kindness costs nothing, it is such a small gesture to make,
but has such a HUGE impact on people,
which makes it worth it's weight in gold"
