The private sector are a major contributor to
local urban and economic development
Notes
There is currently a very clear social and economic divide between the eastern and western sectors of the city. Areas of highest amenity will naturally attract private sector investment and be the first areas to come under developmental pressure.
Conversely, lower amenity areas will struggle to attract the necessary investment, to ensure the viability and vitality of their centres and neighbourhoods. These areas will therefore require public sector investment and working in partnership with the private sector.
It is essential that inequalities are not further entrenched and that planning ensures greater social, cultural and economic equality.
Key:
Red = Public & private together
Yellow = Private
Blue = Potential public& private opportunities based on developing amenity
