Abstract

ABSTRACTThis article provides a critique of urban planning in the Christchurch metropolitan region. It is argued that pressure from land owners and developers in the urban fringe, self interest of constituent territorial local authorities, and inadequate national policy direction based on limited interpretation of the planning scope of the Resource Management Act 1991 have constrained a strategic approach to urban growth management in Christchurch. This situation stands in contrast to the apparent success of the Regional Growth Forum in Auckland.
