Common Councillor Bill Farren is taking exception to the suggestion that the city is continuing to bleed population everytime a difficult decision has to be made on proposed developments. He says the city is getting more and more applications from developers and the 2006 census figure could very well be out of date. He warns if Saint Johnners continue to be negative about their city, it won't move ahead.
Chief City Planner Ken Forrest would like to see higher density housing be built because as he puts it street and pipe are very expensive to build and maintain.
