ABSTRACT

Current circumstances relating to urban renewal and consolidation in the West

Central subregion of Sydney and in particular the suburb of Cabramatta can be

likened to a stalemate in a game of chess. As the New South Wales Government

plans to increase and renew housing in the form of higher density development, the

majority of the existing community living within these areas need, amongst other

things, better outcomes in terms of development improvements, design quality and

more affordable housing options.

From the perspective of developers, there are too many risks for too little returns,

starting from project inception to delivery. There is a very real prospect of large scale

displacement and greater housing stress, with significant social and political

repercussions. Urban renewal in the form of consolidation must be rethought and

remodeled through improved policy and specialised development initiatives.

The primary aim of this thesis is to examine and distil broad lessons from local

housing projects in Cabramatta to help form best practice property development

policy mechanisms. It is hoped that this will help better inform future policy and

actions as well as contribute to the existing academic body of work concerning urban

consolidation and renewal.

1. Introduction

1.1 Background

The Metropolitan Strategy is a broad framework intended to secure Sydney’s place in

the global economy by promoting and managing growth (NSW Department of

Planning 2005). The strategy is considered as one of the most ambitious plans ever

produced to guide Sydney’s growth as it proposes approximately two-thirds of all

future housing to be in established areas, effectively signalling the reversal of past

strategies where most population growth relied on the new release areas on the

outskirts of the region (Meyer, 2005). To help to meet this target, some 95,500 new

homes have been designated for the West Central subregion, incorporating the local

government areas (LGA) of Parramatta, Bankstown, Fairfield, Auburn and Holroyd

(NSW Department of Planning 2005).

A growing body of literature however, suggests that such strategies are deemed to

fall short of the mark, brought on by an oversight of the processes needed to

implement these strategies and a lack of understanding of the issues affecting these

areas. Some of the limits, as identified by Searle, include providing adequate

capacities in infrastructure and land, the need to maintain urban vitality, mitigating the

potential loss of economic activity and meeting market demand (2003).

Other studies largely produced by Randolph and his colleagues also reveal similar

concerns invariably linked to the socio-economic profiles associated with the majority

of areas in the West Central. On one side of the equation, urban renewal and

consolidation initiatives for the West Central will have a whole raft of social enigmas

to contend with whilst on the other, there are difficulties concerning the built form and

the quality and capacity of existing housing stocks in these areas – this relates

particularly to existing strata and lot arrangements (see Ruming et al., 2007,

Randolph, 2006 and Randolph, 2008).

In light of this, the situation appears to present an irreconcilable dilemma for city

planners to preserve and promote renewal and consolidate housing (Searle, 2006;

Page 11: Studies of Local Development Projects in Cabramatta · 2013-04-11 · Studies of Local Development Projects in ... Mum, Dad, A Ma and A Gong together with Biggy, Yi Tsair and Re

3

Beer et al., 2007). If current practices in housing continue unchanged there is real

concern that it would tend toward even greater exacerbation of the socio-spatial

polarisation of high and low income households (Gurran, 2008). Facilitating housing

through urban renewal and consolidation initiatives in these areas therefore is likely

to face higher risks and take place over a long time span (Randolph, 2006). The do

nothing option is not an alternative either. If housing is left the way it is, it would

eventually succumb to the problems of urban decay.

The need to develop more innovative and practical solutions of development

implementation is thus imperative to ensuring that the bulk of the prescribed housing

targets are delivered effectively and sustainably. To avoid further problems for the

future, ideal solutions would need to seek for other mechanisms to strike a balance

between housing and rental affordability, production of higher quality urban design

outcomes and building performance, improvements to tenure choice and improved

provision of infrastructure and development funding. For one, various forms of public

and private industry arrangements can help achieve this (e.g. Smith, 2006 and Adair,

Berry & McGreal, 2003).

So far, policy responses like the Commonwealth Government’s National Rental

Affordability Scheme (NRAS), the recent introduction of New South Wales (NSW)

Government’s new Affordable Rental Housing - State Environmental Planning Policy

(SEPP) together with the roll out of specific housing actions in the Metropolitan

Strategy are key steps in the right direction. But more needs to be done.

As a contribution to these efforts, the thesis will reflect on interviews undertaken with

various local developers in Cabramatta to help gain a better understanding of the

issues they regard as important in shaping future housing in the area and achieving

more sustainable outcomes. It is hoped that the findings from this research task will

help inform and improve housing renewal and consolidation initiatives for the broader

subregional area.

1.2 Problem Statement

The current circumstances relating to urban renewal and consolidation in the West

Central subregion and in particular the suburb of Cabramatta can be likened to a

Page 12: Studies of Local Development Projects in Cabramatta · 2013-04-11 · Studies of Local Development Projects in ... Mum, Dad, A Ma and A Gong together with Biggy, Yi Tsair and Re

stalemate in a game of chess. As the New South Wales Government plans to

increase and renew housing in the form of higher density development, the majority

of the existing community living within these areas need, amongst other things,

betters outcomes in terms of development improvements, design quality and more

affordable housing options.

It will be difficult to satisfy these objectives. Current mechanisms and development

solutions alone have too large of a gap to fill. From the perspectives of developers,

there are too many risks for too little returns, starting from project inception to

delivery. For development to work under these models, many undesirable outcomes

are likely to happen; there is a real prospect of large scale displacement and greater

housing stress with significant social and political repercussions. The move then is

with the Government. To break this deadlock, urban renewal in the form of

consolidation must be rethought and remodeled through either improved policy and

or specialised development initiatives.

The primary objective of this thesis is to examine and distil broad lessons of best

practice property development from local housing projects in Cabramatta. It is hoped

that this will help better inform future policy and actions as well as contribute to the

existing academic body of work concerning urban consolidation and renewal. The

role of local developers and the significance of their contributions will serve a primary

feature to this. By drawing on their feedback and experiences, the thesis can attempt

to highlight possible areas of change and other styles of approach to housing

development which may produce better outcomes going forward.

1.2.1 Research Objectives

Investigations into the problem statement will comprise of the following primary and

secondary objectives:

Explore the current body of knowledge relating to urban renewal and

consolidation practices;

Page 13: Studies of Local Development Projects in Cabramatta · 2013-04-11 · Studies of Local Development Projects in ... Mum, Dad, A Ma and A Gong together with Biggy, Yi Tsair and Re

5

Examine the changes in housing and urban form that have occurred in

Cabramatta since post Second World War;

Investigate the role developers’ play within Cabramatta and the processes and

outcomes of recent residential projects that have occurred in the area;

Present the experiences of local developers and their views as to what they

regard as important for future housing to produce sustainable outcomes; and

Identify improvements that can to better support residential development in

Cabramatta and in turn for the broader area

1.2.2 Research Questions

To achieve the prescribed objectives, the following sets of research questions will be

used.

Primary Questions

What are the experiences of local developers in the locality?

What features of the development process has benefited them and what has

not?

In what ways can these experiences inform best practice solutions for larger

scale property development in the future for Cabramatta?

Secondary Questions

What are the representations of urban renewal and consolidation in the

current body of literature?

What is the nature of housing development in Cabramatta?

1.3 Research Methodology

Findings for the research task will be derived by investigating and assembling

together various sources of primary and secondary data (see Figure 1). Together,

they include a series of one-on-one interviews, a review of the existing body of

literature concerning urban renewal and consolidation; and an audit of recent local

development applications.

2. Urban Growth Patterns

2.1 Overview

The purpose of this chapter is to examine the current body of knowledge of which the

primary research of this paper is contributing to. The tour will begin with a review of

the relevant literature concerning urban growth patterns and management practices.

The framework will establish the necessary groundwork and understanding which will

serve as the prelude to subsequent chapters.

2.2 Literary Discourse

Urban environments need to constantly respond to a whole host of factors, the result

of which determines its particular form and function. These factors may include

changes in government reforms, shifts in the economy, household characteristics,

employment, population growth and migration as well as the demands and

constraints from the natural environment to name a few. For many governments,

urban renewal and consolidation is seen more and more as the conduit necessary to

respond to issues. For example, these may include urban decay, changes to local

demographics and dysfunctions in local market economies, space or communities.

The following sections in this chapter will identify and discuss the benefits and issues

relating to the role of urban renewal and urban consolidation as examined in the

current literature.

2.3 Urban Renewal

Renewal is by no means a new concept. It is a process which has been widely used

ever since humans first realised that there was a need to replace or alter a particular

development or a collection of them. The process comes about through many

different reasons, including the advent of new architectural philosophies and with it

the introduction of new materials and improvements in craftsmanship. Gradual

degradation and catastrophes brought on by natural disasters and even through war

can also be some of the precursors to renewal procedures.

Page 18: Studies of Local Development Projects in Cabramatta · 2013-04-11 · Studies of Local Development Projects in ... Mum, Dad, A Ma and A Gong together with Biggy, Yi Tsair and Re

10

The term urban renewal is essentially the same concept. The reference to the term

“urban” implies a particular focus on renewal activities taking place in settings of

contemporary cities and towns; places which are shaped and supported by complex

road networks and other infrastructure utilities, varying distributions of demographic

profiles and higher population counts, larger varieties of housing types and living

conditions, varying land use clusters and suburbia to name a few. A wide collection

of discussions in the urban planning studies literature pay particular attention to this

concept. Sometimes referred to as urban revitalisation or regeneration, the following

conceptual frameworks offered by some observers encapsulates many of the

important dimensions relevant to the practice today.

“Urban revitalisation, the rekindling and revaluing of human activities and interests in

cities following the social, cultural and technological changes of the past

decades...includes elements of renovation, restoration and redevelopment...” (Taylor

& Newtown 1985: 1)

“Problems of economic decline, social and economic change and physical and

environmental dereliction may combine in particular localities to create or reinforce

poverty, disadvantage and deprivation. Regeneration represents a response to these

problems, seeking to promote greater prosperity, wider social inclusion and an

enhanced quality of life for local communities. It is a long-term process, linking

economic, social and environmental issues and policies” (Smith, 2006)

“Urban renewal is the term given to the combined efforts of public agencies and

private individuals to revitalise urban areas by maintaining, rehabilitating or

redeveloping properties to make them more suited to future needs. The urban

renewal concept is usually applied to situations of environmental decline which offer

potential for improvement. In the past this potential has been seen mainly in terms of

physical improvement, with an emphasis on redevelopment.” (Department of

Environment, Housing and Community Development 1977 pp. vii)

As we see in these frameworks, the notion of physical improvement continues to be

the centre piece in urban renewal rationale. Beyond this concept, we see that in the

contemporary context, urban renewal is closely associated to influences coming

Page 19: Studies of Local Development Projects in Cabramatta · 2013-04-11 · Studies of Local Development Projects in ... Mum, Dad, A Ma and A Gong together with Biggy, Yi Tsair and Re

11

largely in part from political, legal, economic, technical, environmental and

sociological aspects. That said, there is an overriding perception that urban renewal

projects almost always results in outcomes better than circumstances prior to its

undertaking – which begs one to ask, relevant to areas of low-income

neighbourhoods, is this necessarily the case? Some case studies detailing urban

renewal procedures and outcomes have helped provide some critical insight to better

understanding contemporary concerns

In the British context, regeneration initiatives undertaken in Birmingham provide

some evidence to the effects of physical and economic restructuring on surrounding

residential districts (Cameron and Doling, 1994). Introduced in light of the economic

downturn that was occurring around the 1980’s, regeneration strategies were devised

to reverse this trend by broadening the city’s economic base of industry to more

service-sector oriented (DiGaetano and Klemanski, 1993). To do this, the city council

adopted a CBD-focused model of regeneration as its primary vehicle for securing the

city's economic future, promoting Birmingham as an international centre for business

tourism, leisure and culture, and attracting footloose inward private-sector investment

and jobs (Loftman and Nevin, 1992). This was undertaken with pragmatic approach

to local development, the result of this has had profound effects on the recovery and

growth of the city (Carley 1991).

For social residential land uses, it was found that the outcomes of regeneration

initiatives had not resulted in issues of displacement and affordability. Cameron and

Doling proposes that the resistance to gentrification from these areas is attributed

primarily to the fact that a large proportion of housing is in the ownership of the local

authority and where in the instances that transfers take place, it is usually sold to

non-profit providers (1994). In effect this has reduced the potential for displacement

and maintains the affordability of housing in the area. There have however been

some criticisms which have developed as a result of regeneration initiatives in

relation to access to economic opportunities available to low-income

neighbourhoods. This is highlighted by Barber and Hall as they point out that

economic difficulties and wider disadvantage experienced by much of the city’s

population and many of its neighbourhoods have continued to endure and even

deepened despite the efforts of numerous area-based regeneration programmes

Page 20: Studies of Local Development Projects in Cabramatta · 2013-04-11 · Studies of Local Development Projects in ... Mum, Dad, A Ma and A Gong together with Biggy, Yi Tsair and Re

12

(2008). This is seen as a result largely due to the fact that low income

neighbourhoods are excluded and insulated from economic change and regeneration

in the city (Cameron and Doling, 1994).

The experience in South Korea also reveals more extreme circumstances. In urban

Korea, Ha explains that largely due to the interests of white-collar workers,

government interests in macroeconomic concerns and profiteering, housing

regeneration projects have systematically reduced the availability of housing in the

areas where low-income families are concentrated (2007). Although the focus of

such initiatives may have been on improving the physical deterioration of buildings

and distressed neighbourhoods spearheaded by joint venture private enterprise, the

actual outcomes have provided little consideration for the social and cultural capital

of low-income neighbourhoods (Ha, 2007). As such, whilst catering for those more

financially capable, Korea’s housing renewal projects have caused other socio-

economic problems such as the collapse of low-income communities through eviction

and affordability – much to which is instigated by the lack of understanding of what

these communities really need (Ha, 2007).

Clearly, there is an interesting contrast existing between the intended outcomes

supplied by the urban renewal frameworks and the outcomes described in the

renewal case studies presented. Whilst it is acknowledge that although the case

studies are not representative of all renewal projects for distressed neighbourhoods,

particularly for those that have been successful, it does supply greater perspective on

the possible issues and complications arising from these initiatives. By exploring such

cases and others alike (see Turok, 1992 and Lawless, 1994), it is realised that the

key issues which dominate renewal in such neighbourhoods include the risk of

displacement, housing affordability and social equity. It is also important to keep in

mind that these issues stem from the point of view in favour of existing communities.

In contemplation of Barber and Halls question “whose urban renaissance?” – there is

a realisation governing bodies and other stakeholders face unique obstacles as well.

For government, this can be because of the need to fulfil political goals whereas in

private industry for instance, this would appropriately be the need to make a profit.

Page 21: Studies of Local Development Projects in Cabramatta · 2013-04-11 · Studies of Local Development Projects in ... Mum, Dad, A Ma and A Gong together with Biggy, Yi Tsair and Re

13

In light of all this, what is it about renewal in low income areas that creates the

potential for such problems? Of the many possible factors, one key theme is solely

attributable to this. This theme is governance – its style of approach, ability to

coordinate, and the mechanisms it creates in addressing renewal initiatives in a

particular area. Jones and Evans describe this in the sense of the inability of

government to act because too much emphasis is placed upon policy tools or due to

the difficulties of achieving co-operative action (2006).

As highlighted by Hackworth (2003, see also Cook & Ruming, 2008; Zhu, 1997 and

Schall, 2001), policies are invariably linked to different political doctrines of those

governments which design and implement them. Because of this, approaches in

policies have had significant impacts to the efficiency of achieving outcomes aligning

themselves to either socio-democratic or neo-liberal values. Social democratic

approaches are considered as policies which embrace a higher degree of

government led interventions and promote a centralisation of policies (Baker, 1999),

whereas neoliberalism is said to represent those frameworks of political and

economic authority that champions market operation and efficiency over a wide

range of social relations (Brenner & Theodore, 2002).

In terms of alleviating those impacts which have emerged, it is generally found that

low income residential renewal projects involving a high degree of direct government

intervention are more capable in dealing with such issues. Such examples may

include government-led increases to the supply in social housing stocks and rent

control to name a few. Studies undertaken by Milligan, Dielman & Kempen into the

impacts of housing policies on low-income households in Australia and the

Netherlands illustrate this point (2006).

On this note, it is rather odd that governments in cities across the world are tending

to adopt neoliberal approaches to redevelopment policy instead (see Shenjing &

Fulong, 2009 and Addie, 2008). Baum explains that this is attributable to growing

need push for integration into the global economy, for matters of competitiveness,

prosperity and development at the level of the nation state (1997). With reference to

the regeneration of low-income neighbourhoods, there seems to be somewhat of a

paradox. Brenner and Theodore similarly share this point of view and at the same

Page 22: Studies of Local Development Projects in Cabramatta · 2013-04-11 · Studies of Local Development Projects in ... Mum, Dad, A Ma and A Gong together with Biggy, Yi Tsair and Re

14

time shed light to the idea that perhaps more holistic approaches, those that

incorporate all areas and groups into the renewal process, would be of a better

remedy. They state:

“On one hand, while neoliberalism aspires to create a “utopia” of free markets

liberated from all forms of state interference, it has in practice entailed a dramatic

intensification of coercive, disciplinary forms of state intervention in order to impose

market rule upon all aspects of social life...on the other hand, whereas neoliberal

ideology implies that self-regulating markets will generate an optimal allocation of

investments and resources, neoliberal political practice has generated pervasive

market failures, new forms of social polarization, and a dramatic intensification of

uneven development at all spatial scales.” (Brenner and Theodore 2002)

The practice of urban renewal initiatives in distressed neighbourhoods as explored so

far involves a complex range of processes affecting many people. Through critical

extrapolation of urban renewal frameworks it is clear that the successes and failures

are primarily derived from the quality, style and effectiveness of governance. This

would usually depend upon co-operation, partnership and the integration of different

programmes and policies, adopting a holistic approach at an appropriate

geographical scale (Smith, 2006 p 271). Having examined example cases studies

and similar to what Zhu states, it is clear that governance which brings about greater

capacity for more direct government intervention seems indispensable not only to

make market operations efficient, but also to achieve other non-economic goals

(1997). This is a vital necessity to the regeneration of neighbourhoods in distress.

2.4 Urban Consolidation

Urban consolidation has been a point of interest and debate amongst scholars,

planning practitioners, sociologists, demographers and the like for many decades. As

such, there is a vast variety of literature available with the bulk of it examining the

concept’s impressions on past and contemporary planning regimes, its perceived and

measured benefits as well as drawbacks; and it’s environmental, social and

economic impacts. To better understanding of the relationship shared between

density and the built form, Scoffham and Vale (2005) challenges us by asking:

Page 23: Studies of Local Development Projects in Cabramatta · 2013-04-11 · Studies of Local Development Projects in ... Mum, Dad, A Ma and A Gong together with Biggy, Yi Tsair and Re

15

“...Does it mean that buildings, and with them the functions of urban life, should be

close together; closer together than is now common? Does it mean, inter alia, an

increase in density, so that more people and, one might expect, more urban functions

are located within a given area?...”

Taking this into consideration and with regard to the general consensus found across

the literature, an appropriate definition of the concept could be defined as a means

by which more people can be brought into existing residential areas where the

necessary infrastructure such as public transport, schools and utilities are already in

place (Smith 1997). Having explored the notion of renewal, it can be seen that

consolidation is a form of renewal practice. With regard to the planning practice, it is

also important to note that it does not refer to one single policy, but rather a number

of related land use measures and housing initiatives that can increase residential

densities. (NSW Department of Environment and Planning, 1984 p. 1, sourced from

Bunker et al 2002) As one may have figured already, some commentators choose to

use other terms such as compact city, centralist planning, urban compaction or

containment, densification and other more trendy variants like transport oriented

design (TOD) and smart growth in their works to describe principally the same

method of approach to developing the urban form.

Based on this framework, we continue by exploring the strengths of this concept.

Firstly, it requires that urban consolidation concentrates first and foremost on

increased residential densities. This suggests that by doing so, the densification of

residential land uses underwrites the perceived benefits of living in consolidated

areas. This thought is rather logical. For example, we see in Greenberg’s et al work,

the provision of infrastructure is described to be more cost effective, as it does not

demand for entirely new systems to be installed, by utilising existing capacities by

grouping people closer together (2001). Secondly, the need for common visions and

comprehensive coordination between policy makers and key stakeholders are also

emphasised. This further challenges us to think of consolidated areas, and if one

would like the urban fabric as a whole, as perhaps a physical by-product of land

management practices and governmental quality.

16

Throughout the literature, the debate between urban consolidation and urban sprawl

is a notable standout, with both doctrines gaining as much support as the other.

Breheny describes that the debate between the two concepts has shifted from the

traditional grounds based on the quality of urban and rural life and the aesthetics of

urbanity to more contemporary concerns of sustainable development (2005). That is

not to say that those traditional arguments have disappeared altogether.

Nevertheless, as the topical issue of global warming and climate change draws

growing interest from governments across the world, the urban consolidation

approach has been reviewed as an effective way of enhancing a city’s economy

whilst offering increased benefits of mitigating development and population impacts

onto the environment.

The potential benefits of urban consolidation as described by the then NSW

Department of Environment and Planning, include land savings, more affordable

housing, economising on infrastructure, reducing natural resource use in the form of

energy and water demand, and widening housing choices (1984; see also Holliday,

2000). A range of papers reflect on these benefits, questioning the integrity of these

claims but also providing a critical insight to the whole issue of sustainability. Where

studies have been found to focus on a particular variable, many other areas have yet

to be investigated. We continue our tour by examining some broad accounts of these

discussions.

Contrary to the belief that urban consolidation enables greater housing affordability,

some critics in the field have condemned it as being a catalyst to the problem.

Proponents generally argue that by imposing urban growth boundaries onto the

fringes of the city, the restriction of new supplies of land would place a premium on

existing urban areas for either sale or redevelopment prospects. Alan Moran

attempts to show that the connection to housing affordability is bizarre; as it is

understood in his work, urban consolidation, or as he prefers, “land rationing” would

obstruct the natural development of domestic housing market sentiment and

reactions (2006). He goes further by asserting that this would systematically

undermine the fiscal incentives for local governments to provide for those seeking to

enter the home-owning market. His argument does carry some weight, especially

Page 25: Studies of Local Development Projects in Cabramatta · 2013-04-11 · Studies of Local Development Projects in ... Mum, Dad, A Ma and A Gong together with Biggy, Yi Tsair and Re

17

when one starts to think about the possible repercussions onto lower income groups

in society in terms of housing and rental affordability.

Criticisms aside, having to test and to prove this relationship is not at all an easy

task. This is because the empirical case studies examined throughout the literature

are often subject to a varying range of political, geographic, cultural, social and

economic settings. Where studies have consistently found urban containment

policies contributing to housing price inflation in areas where they are imposed, there

is general disagreement among scholars over the nature of these effects and the

appropriate way to measure them (see Dawkins and Nelson, 2002). As we see, prior

to their study of the Melbourne housing market and its relationship to consolidation

policies, Hans and O’Connor adopted the view that whilst urban consolidation could

be seen as a source of additional supply, it was also a stimulus to demand. (2008).

Despite this and having concluded later that the relationship was more or less valid,

they did stress that the outcome may only hold true in certain areas and that urban

consolidation policies alone are not powerful in explaining the price changes.

In reminding us that urban environments are definitely complex places, Burton’s

findings from her examination of urban consolidation in the UK contends that housing

is more expensive in a compact city. But like Hans and O’Connor after her, she

attributes the trend to other elements. When intervening variables are taken into

account, compactness is not the most important determinant of affordability, the

proportion of more-affluent residents is far more significant; affordability is probably,

therefore, most strongly related to the demand for housing, and the density of

housing in a city is simply a reflection of this demand. (Burton, 2000). Therefore, as

Smyth elaborates, most households will effectively have to have large incomes in

order to be able to afford the house purchases and rents (1999).

Results from these findings are interesting and does provide a unique and rather

provocative perspective of the entire situation. Conclusions from the broad range of

international cases investigated by Dawkins and Nelson helps bring this into

perspective. The effects of urban containment appear to be much more dependent

on the style of policy implementation, the structure of local housing markets, the

Page 26: Studies of Local Development Projects in Cabramatta · 2013-04-11 · Studies of Local Development Projects in ... Mum, Dad, A Ma and A Gong together with Biggy, Yi Tsair and Re

18

pattern of existing land ownership, and the stringency of other local regulations

(2002).

Going hand in hand with the issue of affordability, we now shift our focus a little over

to the notion of housing choice and diversity. Advocates of this idea are confronted

with strong evidence in the literature, which have been gathered by deconstructing

down to important contributing factors which may have been overlooked in the first

instance. One example is revealed by Bunker et al. Planning for higher density

housing has been undertaken with little explicit recognition of the housing sub-

markets, who higher density housing caters for or their specific spatial characteristics

within the city (2005). This highlights one important point and that is how urban

consolidation policies, although seen as a means of providing additional supply, can

be disconnected to the demographic profile; which would affect how it relates to the

nature of how people choose. The state of play in the Melbourne and Sydney

housing markets as analysed by Yates is a prime example of this. Where urban

consolidation has been promoted to as a means of greater diversity and choice,

Yates concludes that whilst an increasing number of households have opted for

higher density housing options, they have done so only when constrained by income

in meeting their location and tenure preferences (2007)

The general impression one is left with from the discussions above is that urban

consolidation does seem to instigate affordability problems but at the same time the

reason for a greater range of housing stock. This might seem to increase housing

choice; but in reality it is only increased as much as one’s income permits. All this

appears to result from the potential disregard of urban consolidation in meeting of the

needs and preferences of the population.

The connection between urban consolidation and the provision of infrastructure is

also another prime area of focus. Throughout various conceptual analyses and

empirical studies, the discussions revolve around the issue of whether or not

infrastructure provision in contained urban forms would be more economically

efficient and thus making it the preferential choice over urban sprawl. As it stands,

the current body of work suggests otherwise as we will see.

Page 27: Studies of Local Development Projects in Cabramatta · 2013-04-11 · Studies of Local Development Projects in ... Mum, Dad, A Ma and A Gong together with Biggy, Yi Tsair and Re

19

For pro-consolidators, the benefit of the concept is largely based on a higher rate of

infrastructure utilisation. It is argued that, in a compact city, not only are households

in closer proximity to facilities but there are also likely to be a greater number of

facilities per head of population because minimum densities of population are

required for facilities such as retail to be economically viable (see Collie, 1990;

Bromley and Thomas, 1993; Fyfe, 1994). This is all good, but as Hopkins et al

(economies of scale in wastewater treatment) raises the point, do the cost savings

from growth patterns that take advantage of economies of scale in infrastructure,

sufficiently justify the costs of plans, incentives, and regulations necessary to achieve

such patterns?

Searle and in particular Troy, provide critical insights at this point. As seen in their

works, the notion of infrastructure efficiency under urban consolidation seems to be

misguided. Firstly, by inspecting Sydney’s existing infrastructure system, Searle

draws our attention to the potential limits of infrastructure capacity, incorporating

water and drainage, public open space and transport facilities for consolidated areas

(2003). The assertions made regarding the key challenges involving the limited ability

of existing infrastructure to meet demand and the need to repair and replace obsolete

systems suggest that there could be a very significant cost factor involved. Troy’s

critical assessment of urban consolidation in the Australian context substantiates

these ideas by arguing that facilities are already under-provided in the inner areas

and would be even more expensive to provide there than in new outer areas (1996,

pp. 58). Most intriguing and perhaps the most damaging of all, he alerts us to the

erroneous assumptions of pro consolidators regarding infrastructure rollout.

It is very rare development in urban Australia for lots to be so provided with services

or have access to facilities at the outset...Most services and facilities are provided in

a lagged response to demand...It is therefore misleading to imply that the full

provision of services and facilities occurs as lots are developed (Troy 1996, pp. 59)

The debate over urban consolidation and its environmental merits shares the same

controversy. As concerns over energy consumption, resource depletion and

environment deprivation continue, this component contributes a lot to the compact

city justification. The environmental arguments supporting urban consolidation lay

Page 28: Studies of Local Development Projects in Cabramatta · 2013-04-11 · Studies of Local Development Projects in ... Mum, Dad, A Ma and A Gong together with Biggy, Yi Tsair and Re

20

claims that compact cities use less fossil fuels, emit less greenhouse gases, enable

more attractive public transport types to be provided, and conserve agricultural and

water catchment areas (Smith, 1997). The benefits described are seen to result from

a combination of compact city features which include shorter travel distances and

greater public transport utilisation. Developments in compact cities are also said to

require less energy for heating and air conditioning, decrease the need for watering

large lawns, have fewer swimming pools, and offer less of chance of contaminating

reservoirs and underground water supplies in the protected open spaces

(Greenberg’s et al, 2001).

However, similar to previous sections, we find that the contention is centred on the

legitimacy of these environmental savings. Again, it is Troy who comes to the

forefront by stating that consolidation initiatives are more likely to result in negative

outcomes.

We see that increasing housing density:

actually decreases our capacity to cope with domestic wastes and our

opportunities for recycling;

reduces our capacity to harvest or otherwise cope with the rainfall on urban

areas and reduce runoff;

makes it harder for urban residents to produce much of their own food;

increases air pollution because it reduces space for growth of trees and

shrubs to purify the air and cool the urban area;

reduces chances of growth of wood for fuel and reduces habitats for birds and

other native fauna;

increases congestion which increases accidents and energy losses.

(1996, pp. 129)

Studies undertaken by Barrett and Breheny are not as critical, but similarly downplay

the perceived environmental benefits. They suggest that the trade-offs required to

achieve these aims would lead to a worse off position and that any savings made

would be minimal (Barrett 1996, Breheny, 1995).

2.5 Summary

This chapter has examined the current body of knowledge relevant to the themes of

this thesis. In doing so, it has explored the concepts, ideas, examples and debates

relating to the processes of urban renewal and consolidation. Specifically it has

highlighted the relationship of government, policy, private industry, the community as

well as the environment.

Urban patterns have been a crucial part in the development of issues and

opportunities. In the context of Sydney, it is vitally important to gain a better

understanding of these processes and how they have shaped current capacities for

growth in Cabramatta.

3. Housing Background in Cabramatta

3.1 Overview

This chapter aims to convey an illustration of the context of housing in Cabramatta.

Initially it will provide a brief review of the history of Sydney’s planning policies and

subsequent growth patterns which took hold. Specifically, it will present examples of

those housing outcomes in Cabramatta which have eventuated as a result of these

initiatives. An analysis of current day issues relating to future housing initiatives will

also be provided thereafter.

3.2 Renewal and Consolidation Experience

Urban housing strategies have had a profound effect on the nature of growth patterns

in Sydney. Like many other observers, tracing the history of its development and the

planning documents which set the direction for growth makes it possible to ascertain

the planning mentality occurring within New South Wales and moreover offers an

insight into the nature of the renewal and consolidation experience concerning

residential developments which came to be in Cabramatta.

In a general sense, housing policy interventions in Australia were triggered by severe

housing shortages and strong population growth (Milligan, Dieleman and Kempen

2006). In the first half of the twentieth century, Sydney’s urban development changed

from the dense built form of the nineteenth century to low density suburban

development, aided by increasing ownership of motor cars (Searle, 2007). Initially

during the period following the Second World War, Meyer describes that

development was shaped by plans within the 1948-1951 County of Cumberland

Scheme which proposed a greenbelt to contain urban growth, with any expansion to

be in satellite towns (2005).

The blueprint for this plan, however, was to face significant challenges as this period

was marked by return of servicemen and a large influx of migrants whom largely sort

housing through the access of cheap and plentiful land which resulted in high rates of

homeownership and relatively how housing costs (Stretton, 1989).Contributions to

Page 32: Studies of Local Development Projects in Cabramatta · 2013-04-11 · Studies of Local Development Projects in ... Mum, Dad, A Ma and A Gong together with Biggy, Yi Tsair and Re

24

housing from both the Commonwealth and state government were also pretty

significant during this period, whereby in 1954 government assistance accounted for

some 40% of finance for new housing (Dalton, 1999). Additional housing for New

South Wales during this period was facilitated by the introduction of the

Commonwealth State Housing Agreement (CSHA), a mechanism designed to allow

state governments to buy land and build public rental housing using low-cost loans

for low-income families (Pugh, 1976). This was later revised to provide mortgage

finance for home purchase and sitting tenants were encouraged to buy public

housing under favourable rice and lending conditions (Milligan, 2003). The combined

effect of these domestic affairs resulted in the subsequent growth beyond the

greenbelt, establishing more of a moving boundary to urban expansion which was

revised periodically to accommodate growth through rezoning for urban purposes

and as a result suburban development at this stage was usually in the form of the

separate house on its own block (Beer, 1999 and Bunker 2002).

The development context in this period also propagated through to the logic and

vision of the Sydney Region Outline Plan. As Cardew reveals, growth was expected

to continue unabated and major societal change was not anticipate by planners; and

so the strategy departed from the greenbelt notions of the preceding plan and

concentrated to coordinate development and ensure government infrastructure

investment met the requirements of growth (1998). In general, the concept was for

corridors to be focused on established rail lines radiating from the CBD, in the form of

new towns, each with its own town centre and each with its own industrial areas and

tertiary education campuses (Meyer 2005). The introduction of strata title legislation

supported this as it was designed to help facilitate major expansion of higher density

residential development by allowing the ownership of individual apartments

(Randolph 2006a). Inevitably though, the vision of the plan was stifled due to the

changes in the demography which are traced back to the unexpected falls in the

average household size and the gentrification of inner city suburbs (Kendig, 1979).

Characterised by much of those separate block developments and now

concentrations of higher density developments, the result of the miscalculations had

lead to a significant underutilisation of infrastructure that had been put in place

(Bunker, Holloway and Randolph, 2005).

Page 33: Studies of Local Development Projects in Cabramatta · 2013-04-11 · Studies of Local Development Projects in ... Mum, Dad, A Ma and A Gong together with Biggy, Yi Tsair and Re

25

Moving forward, planners later found themselves confronted with further challenges.

For one, the divergence of capital funding from the Commonwealth had planners

meant that planners needed to consider strategies which would primarily reduce

expenditure on infrastructure (Searle 2007). Urban consolidation and redevelopment

of existing urban areas was to be the answer to containing ongoing sprawl of

residential development. Similar to that of Troy, Milligan and others considered more

recently that the up-take of neo-liberal policy reforms helped this transition as it

enabled market-based housing provision which resulted in the New South Wales

Government relying more heavily on private involvement in the planning, financing,

and delivery of large-scale residential development projects (1999 and 2006, also

see Cook & Ruming 2008). Changes to existing policies which allowed medium

density development to take place along with market demand led to the building of

dual occupancy developments and large numbers of three-storey walk-up flats either

as initial development or as part of a redevelopment process (Bunker, Holloway &

Randolph, 2005). This proved to be effective to the cause as subsequent brownfield

developments which took place in the 1990s and early 21st century allowed the State

Government to wind down outer area land releases as 70% of all dwellings were

provided in the established areas but created the impetus for affordability issues

(Meyer, 2005). In Fairfield’s local government area, Randolph and Holloway showed

that multi-unit dwellings outstripped new houses in absolute terms between 1991 and

2001 (2005). A majority of developments in Cabramatta currently still in use today

are an example of those developments (refer to figures 2, 3, 4 and 5). Emphasis to

the state of decline to these buildings should also be noted.

28

It is by the same token and together with the more contemporary focus of the New

South Wales Government to tackle housing affordability issues and reposition

Metropolitan Sydney as a competitive global city which has lead to the adoption of

the City of Cities strategic planning document introduced in 2005. Under the strategy,

the urban growth pattern is expected to evolve by converging to support the existing

decentralised footprint with particular emphasis on the development of multiple sub-

centres (NSW Department of Planning, 2005). This approach is considered by

Ingram to be the ideal solution in addressing issues of population growth,

employment and infrastructure provision to name a few (1998) Moreover within this

strategic context, the traditional reliance on new release areas have been largely

discounted whereby 60 and 70 per cent of future development have been proposed

to occur within existing built-up areas and the residual 30 per cent being catered for

in perimeter development zones to the north-west and south-west of the existing

urban area (Jensen, 2006). This is anticipated to be in the form of surrounding

existing infrastructure facilities – namely rail, with high density residential housing

(NSW Department of Planning, 2005).

3.3 Current Implications for Future Housing

The planning and development context explored so far reveals that housing growth

patterns have effectively shifted away from its sprawling tendencies to more of the

practice of consolidation through regeneration. In recent times, the move is seen to

stem from economic growth strategies and the competitive cities rationale. With this

change, it is also noticed that the role of government remained consistently minimal

throughout the course of development. The range of direct and indirect subsidies

developed to support private investment in housing for homeownership has

undoubtedly characterised the nature of contemporary residential land uses across

Sydney (Beer, Kearins & Pieters, 2007).

Given the housing and development context built up so far, future capacity for

renewal and consolidation in Cabramatta, as envisaged by the Metropolitan Strategy

would most likely be a challenging task to accomplish. Unlike circumstances of the

past, the canvas to which development is proposed to take place presents unique

obstacles – the result of many have come about through the accumulative effect of

past regimes. The aerial photographs (figures 6 and 7) demonstrate this; whereby in

Page 37: Studies of Local Development Projects in Cabramatta · 2013-04-11 · Studies of Local Development Projects in ... Mum, Dad, A Ma and A Gong together with Biggy, Yi Tsair and Re

29

just over 60 years, the nature of housing development and tenure in Cabramatta is

found to have significantly changed through phases of redevelopment and

consolidation.

 Figure 6 – Cabramatta in 1943 (SKM 2007, sourced from the Department of Lands SIX viewer)

Page 38: Studies of Local Development Projects in Cabramatta · 2013-04-11 · Studies of Local Development Projects in ... Mum, Dad, A Ma and A Gong together with Biggy, Yi Tsair and Re

30

 Figure 7 – Cabramatta in 2008 (SKM 2008, sourced from the Department of Lands SIX viewer) In Cabramatta, the long-running contributions of these features have had a profound

impact shaping the current urban landscape, community and capacities in housing.

Up until this point in time, it is regard that the quality of housing in Cabramatta has

become amongst the poorest in Sydney, consisting a mix of poor quality fibro

housing and street after street of 3-4 story gun-barrel walk-ups whereby the former

exists predominantly in the form of highly fragmented suburban lots and the latter is

identified to be entrenched with issues of multiple ownership and strata titling

(Randolph, 2008 and Easthope & Randolph, 2009).

A comparison of Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) census data collected in 2001

and 2006 has also revealed that the number of those dwellings that are occupied

have experienced a downward trend across all categories with the only increase

occurring in separate homes (see figure 8). Whilst the timeframe taken for

comparison may be limited, this data does indicate that market-based solutions to

renewal and consolidation which is unlikely be effective this time round. This comes

Page 39: Studies of Local Development Projects in Cabramatta · 2013-04-11 · Studies of Local Development Projects in ... Mum, Dad, A Ma and A Gong together with Biggy, Yi Tsair and Re

31

especially when the majority of local residential developments have been somewhat

stagnate in terms of providing a broad range and higher densities. The result of the

local development audit has revealed residential development related applications

make up for up to 45% of all applications approved the last 9 month period. This

component is comprised predominantly of developments for double storey detached

dwellings (41%) and alterations and additions to existing dwellings (34%) (see figures

9, 10 and Appendix A).

Together with fact that the area has become home to many of the migrant

populations as well as many of the disadvantaged located by way of low income

private rental housing tenures, the current situation seemingly demands more

innovation in strategy and implementation mechanisms to carry future housing

through – which so far none has been devised as yet (Bunker et al 2005a, Sherry,

2006)

3.3 Summary

Since post Second World War, urban policies have unequivocally shaped the

development of housing characteristics throughout the city and in particular in those

areas around Cabramatta; the result of which has offered valuable insight to the

planning mentality of the state towards housing provision. Critical to this, is the

understanding the nature of those mechanisms which have been put in place and the

outcomes produced as a result. For one, it is clear to see that the minimal role of

Page 41: Studies of Local Development Projects in Cabramatta · 2013-04-11 · Studies of Local Development Projects in ... Mum, Dad, A Ma and A Gong together with Biggy, Yi Tsair and Re

33

government in directly supplying housing in New South Wales has played a major

part in explaining the constant shortage of household numbers available to meet

demand and the creation of various sub-markets. In Cabramatta and areas alike,

Bunker, Holloway and Randolph have identified that this has been characterised by

financially and socially distressed households (2005a).

In more recent times, it was found that the majority of local residential developments

are in the form of low density tenures. This comes with both positive and potentially

negative implications affecting the future prospects of housing affordability, potential

for displacement and continued physical distress. In light of this, future housing must

be re-addressed with alternative policy approaches designed to better respond to

existing building and environmental constraints as well as those social changes and

issues which have developed as a result of the past.

CHAPTER FOUR – RESEARCH APPROACH

4. Research Approach

4.1 Overview

The purpose of this chapter is to detail the primary research approach and methods

that were designed to address the problem statement. As well as providing details of

local developers whom were interviewed and explaining the significance of their

involvement, this section follows by examining the research topics explored and

limitations involved.

4.2 Research Methodology

Qualitative research is concerned with exploring the understandings and meanings

that people attribute to their social world (Walter, 2006, pp. 11). Case studies would

bring a range of factors into a common analysis, but perhaps more importantly, the

depth of understanding they offer is increasingly seen as critical in analysing wider

socio-political processes (Yin, 1986 sourced in Jones & Evans, 2006)

As such, a qualitative approach was designed to investigate the problem statement.

This involved conducting a series of in-depth face-to-face interviews with local

developers to access their perspective and experiences with local development

projects. Walter (2006, pp. 205) considers that this approach would be the best

means of acquiring quality data. The research approach continues by providing a

thematic analysis of the responses gathered.

Local developers were considered preferable candidates for the research task

because of their experience and connections to the area. They are the also the group

of people most likely to play a major part in renewal and consolidation processes into

the future.

4.2.1 Interviewees

The research project was implemented over a 1 month period following an initial

selection process for potential candidates. The criteria were based on two conditions.

Firstly, they had to have undertaken a housing project within or around the vicinity of

Page 44: Studies of Local Development Projects in Cabramatta · 2013-04-11 · Studies of Local Development Projects in ... Mum, Dad, A Ma and A Gong together with Biggy, Yi Tsair and Re

36

Cabramatta. To ensure that each case was carefully selected as a way of capturing a

key quality of interest to the research (Walter, 2006, pp. 283); the second

qualification limited the selection process to two per residential development

category.

The potential candidates were sourced in a variety of ways. Information from local

development applications, real estate agents and sourcing local housing providers

had generated a list of 8 potential candidates. Requests for interview sessions were

made out via email and subsequently followed up with phone calls. Of the 8 potential

candidates, 6 had responded and 2 were omitted from the process because there

was no reply. Of those candidates whom had responded, 5 had agreed to an

interview whilst the remaining 1 had declined to take part. The following table

identifies the profiles of the 5 participating interviewees.

business which is currently in operation

today. As such, Mr Lim takes part in

a local real estate agent, but is now

involved in the insulation business. Having

moved out of the family home in Cecil Hills,

Mr Lim currently resides in Cabramatta.

Cliff La Mr La was born in Australia, son to migrant

parents. Currently residing just outside

Cabramatta in the suburb of Canley

Heights, he is employed as a business

Local Developer X

(Identification

Withheld)

Developer X migrated and settled into the

local area with his family. Most members of

the family including Developer X got into

various types of businesses ranging from

groceries to finance to construction. Since

moving out of the original family home, all

members of the family have sort newer

residencies in and around Cabramatta.

Currently, Developer X is semi-retired and

is involved in the building industry.

31 Aug 2009

The inclusion of Mrs Maung and Mr Chang were necessary for forming perspectives

and opinions from local developers engaged in small scale residential renewal and

consolidation projects in the area. In Mrs Maung’s case, she undertook a residential

redevelopment project for investment purposes. The project required the demolition

of an existing fibro house and the erection of a two storey duplex. Her property is

located just outside the northern boundary of Cabramatta in the suburb of Canley

Heights. Similarly, Mr Chang has also undertaken a residential redevelopment project

Page 46: Studies of Local Development Projects in Cabramatta · 2013-04-11 · Studies of Local Development Projects in ... Mum, Dad, A Ma and A Gong together with Biggy, Yi Tsair and Re

38

incorporating the erection of another duplex development for living and investment

purposes.

The choice to select Mr Thi Lim as a participant for the research task was based on

the need to represent the opinions of owner occupiers whom engage in projects

resulting primarily in renewed residential outcomes only. In Mr. Lim’s case, he had

redeveloped his previous single storey brick home to a new double storey dwelling.

Cases like Mr Lim’s are prominent in Cabramatta and therefore are of a particular

interest to the research task. Mr Lim intends to engage in a potential duplex project

within the near future.

Cliff La is also an owner occupier. The residential project undertaken with his brother,

involved refurbishment works to his existing double storey brick dwelling, the

subdivision of land and the construction of a new double storey dwelling on the

resulting new lot. The creation of an easement running away from the street and into

the lot provides access to the newly erected dwelling.

On the condition that their identification be withheld, securing the interview with

Developer X was also very crucial in providing a representation for local townhouse

development in the area. Developer X was involved in a family consortium which

spearheaded a residential housing project. Specific project works included the need

for site amalgamation and the construction of a new multi-unit townhouse

development. The development lies just east of Cabramatta in the suburb of Canley

Vale.

The unfortunate decline from the owner of the block of units at 77 Hill Street has

meant that the research task has been limited in providing insights for a broader

range of residential development categories. Recent redevelopment works

undertaken at the block of units incorporated facade upgrades, landscaping, whole of

building re-wiring and re-plumbing, and associated security upgrades. If the interview

had been accepted, this case would have greatly contributed to the research task as

it makes for a good insight into addressing the issues affecting older style unit blocks

and townhouse developments in the area. As such, this has created some potential

scope for future studies to investigate.

4.3 Interview Questions

The focus of questions designed for the interview process was aimed at drawing out

how local developers thought and interpreted what they have done. This would allow

them to explain a great deal about how and why they did what they did (Walter, 2006

pp. 35). Following the likes of Brenner et al semi-structured interviews were used to

capture formal and informal aspects of the respective projects and to allow flexibility

in accordance with the varying time-constraints of different interviewees (1985 cited

in Jones and Evans 2005). Approximately 20–30 minutes were used to focus upon

standard areas of focus concerning the project, followed by a relatively unstructured

discussion of variable length used to explore opinions and less formal aspects of

projects and interviewee’s involvement (Jones & Evans, 2005). Probing questions

were also used intermittently throughout the interviews to help expand on certain

areas of interest.

Page 48: Studies of Local Development Projects in Cabramatta · 2013-04-11 · Studies of Local Development Projects in ... Mum, Dad, A Ma and A Gong together with Biggy, Yi Tsair and Re

Generally, the interview questions were guided by covering the following broad topic

areas.

Motivations of the project

Contingencies of the project/risks

Benefits of the project

Project management

Site assembly and strata issues

Feasibility

What would they have done differently?

Perspectives on current development policies

4.4 Research Limitations

The adopted research approach encountered certain limitations and constraints

which would have affected the outcomes of the investigation. On the point of scale,

the number of interviewees whom were willing to participate in the process limited the

scope of perspectives and opinions that could be retrieved. The ability of the

research task to investigate the larger housing development located at 77 Hill Street

was hindered by the decision of its respective owners not to participate. In effect,

these two elements have restricted the capacity of the research task to demonstrate

a more comprehensive representation of residential development categories and

opinions from local developers in the area.

Whilst in-depth interviews are an ideal way for researching people with busy

lifestyles, it also provides an avenue for investigating personal, sensitive and

confidential information. As such, it should be made aware that there may be areas

of purposeful distortion in the responses obtained.

As the research study could have benefited additionally from a more comprehensive

sample size and access to additional facilities of verification and cross-checking, the

result of the in-depth interviews did provide the chance to concentrate on the

respondents’ individual experiences and understand the lessons they offer. Overall,

Page 49: Studies of Local Development Projects in Cabramatta · 2013-04-11 · Studies of Local Development Projects in ... Mum, Dad, A Ma and A Gong together with Biggy, Yi Tsair and Re

41

the research approach was successful in obtaining sufficient and valuable

information from local developers.

4.5 Summary

The primary research approach and methods as discussed in the above sections

were successful in gathering the necessary information from local developers within

and around the Cabramatta area. Despite some initial setbacks and as a result of the

interview process, a range of perspectives were obtained for several categories of

residential developments. Despite the reluctance from local developers whom had

declined to take part, the general response from those who participated was very

forthcoming.

5. Research Findings

5.1 Overview

The purpose of this chapter is to document the findings gathered from the interviews.

The feedback collected from local developers has been presented under the context

of specific themes deemed relevant to the focus of this paper.

5.2 Themes

The findings derived from local developer interviews are presented below. To help

with data analysis, information relevant to purpose of this thesis has been structured

using a thematic type approach. These themes have been adopted as it provide an

ideal means of increasing the understanding of local developer experiences by

drawing critical connections to the current issues and highlight possible areas for

policy change.

The themes relating to profits and security, local ties, financing, development

approvals, market response and future development have been selected as they

effectively convey experiences relating to local developer motivations, project risks

encountered, development approach, construction and planning issues as well as

cost factors involved.

5.2.1 Profits and Security

Not surprisingly, profitability and the sense of enjoying ownership of a stable asset

were the major precursors for local developers to have become involved in property

development. Generally, they regard it to be a pretty straight forward and relatively

safe process which can return a sizable profit. Thi Lim in particular highlights this

point of view in stating that “despite some nervous times, building to make money is

quite often fun and exciting” (2009). Compared to other investments, of which he has

little knowledge of and is uncomfortable with due to the increased volatility, he finds

that “on top of increasing capital returns and ability to attract rent”...the tax

advantages are also pretty good” for property developers (T Lim 2009, pers. comm.,

Page 52: Studies of Local Development Projects in Cabramatta · 2013-04-11 · Studies of Local Development Projects in ... Mum, Dad, A Ma and A Gong together with Biggy, Yi Tsair and Re

44

28 Aug). “For people in the same situation, this is a great incentive to get developing”

(T Lim 2009, pers. comm., 28 Aug).

The sense of security which property development brings to the local developers is

also expressed through in their remarks. Cliff La for one makes this perfectly clear by

stating that for him “it’s a good way of making money and benefiting from the added

security of this type of investment, it’s a good feeling knowing that you are holding

onto property” (2009). Wilson Chang also mimics this same belief, stating that his

decision to build the duplex allowed him “to obtain a good quality home to live in

whilst making money next door” (2009,). He adds, “the arrangement for the building

project has been convenient and at the end of the day, I can sleep easier at night

knowing that I can be on top of any problems which may occur” (W Chang 2009,

pers. comm., 12 Sept). Tieu Maung further reinforces these views by alerting to us

that other than the long term capital gains which she considers as the main

drawcard, getting into property has “granted the benefits of receiving a passive

stream of income in the form of rent” whilst her and her husband are away working

(2009). In addition to this, she regards it as a means of “safeguarding the future for

the life they want to live” (T N Maung 2009, pers. comm., 13 Sept).

5.2.2 Local Ties

Local developers revealed that their familiarity with the area had more or less shaped

their decision to undertake their respective projects in and around Cabramatta. For

some, this extended to the familiarity with council processes and connections to local

businesses. Consequently, local developers generally pointed out that this has in part

influenced their decision to build their projects within the locality as opposed to other

places. Tieu Maung’s illustrates this point of view in stating that “having lived in the

area for most of my life and... together with investment advice and guidance from her

family members”; she considers that it was “only of natural to seek development

opportunities within the area” (T N Maung 2009, pers. comm., 13 Sept).

Failing to adequately enter into a housing project in Epping and parts of the Inner

West, Cliff La stated that the locational choice for his development eventually turned

to “focus on opportunities within the local area” (2009). This was in part due to the

fact that he “knew it would be significantly cheaper to enter the market and also

Page 53: Studies of Local Development Projects in Cabramatta · 2013-04-11 · Studies of Local Development Projects in ... Mum, Dad, A Ma and A Gong together with Biggy, Yi Tsair and Re

45

because of the growth potential”, adding that “the availability of larger lots in the area

had specifically appealed to this decision as well” (C La 2009, pers. comm., 3 Sept).

Thi Lim attributes his past experience as a local real estate agent as one of the key

motivators for his decision to locate in Cabramatta (2009). He is quoted in saying

“that because of my experience in knowing what to expect from the market place and

with various connections to local lawyers, other real estate agents and developers

built up over the years, it was a logical choice to have undertaken the project here” (T

Lim 2009, pers. comm., 28 Aug). In addition to this, he admits that the development

would allow him to “have a quality home that is located close to family, friends and

work” (T Lim 2009, pers. comm., 28 Aug).

Like Thi Lim, the case for Wilson Chang and Developer X also relates to their family

commitments and connections in the local area. As Wilson Change puts it, “I don’t

really have any interest in other places, my job is based here, my children go to

school here, and I enjoy the community and the shopping as well” (W Chang 2009,

pers. comm., 12 Sept). Developer X mentions that because his family members had

also undertaken separate projects in the area “it just seemed like the obvious location

to undertake the project” having admitted to “have always thought and aspired to the

development prospects for land in this area” (2009). In addition to this, he believes

that his "knowledge about the construction industry coupled with his brothers’ and in-

laws’ experience and association to local businesses...had benefited the whole

project and added that “it would have been a bit more difficult to built the project

anywhere else” (Developer X 2009, pers. comm., 31 Aug). It is learnt that Developer

X is also well versed in the local council’s processes and has a very familiar

understanding of their expectations regarding housing development for the area

(2009). This in turn placed him in a predisposed position to conduct his activities

within the area.

5.2.3 Financing

Financing was a very important point of discussion amongst the local developers.

Most financing was found to be sourced from the banks with the remaining proportion

of private funds put together in various ways. The latter is found to reflect the nature

in how the development project was carried out. What can be said is that the local

Page 54: Studies of Local Development Projects in Cabramatta · 2013-04-11 · Studies of Local Development Projects in ... Mum, Dad, A Ma and A Gong together with Biggy, Yi Tsair and Re

46

developers were found to be in financially sound positions prior to undertaking their

projects. We find from the responses that most of the loans were serviced by a

secondary source, being either a job, support from another partner or an outside

business. Generally, the financial state of the projects encountered little or no

complications with all avoiding any potential on defaulting.

Wilson Chang provides an insight into his financial situation to help understand this

better; as in his development he “was matched to a mortgage facility designed for the

particular situation” whereby the private proportion of credit came in the form of

“savings and personal assets” held (2009). He states that this was because he had

“been taught to save as much cash as possible before any consideration of an

investment can be made” (W Chang 2009, pers. comm., 12 Sept). In his experience,

“when you are able to get into that position, more people are willing to deal with you

and you can get things done generally more effectively; it can be frustrating and slow

but it is worth it; in the end I am able to enjoy reasonable repayments because of this

strategy” (W Chang 2009, pers. comm., 12 Sept).

Cliff La’s residential development undertaking was only made possible by forming a

partnership with his brother (2009). He mentions that on his own, “it would have been

a lot harder to source finance from the banks to help fund the project and also

benefited from halving any of the projects risks” (C La 2009, pers. comm., 3 Sept).

This also mentions that the “burden of repayments was also softened” (C La 2009,

pers. comm., 3 Sept). Currently, he indicates, “the loan is still being paid off with

parts of their income and rent received from the new house” (C La 2009, pers.

comm., 3 Sept). “Generally because the cost for that particular project was relatively

high, there will be a period of consolidation to existing funds before other projects in

the pipeline can be commenced” (C La 2009, pers. comm., 3 Sept).

For Thi Lim and his knock-down rebuild project, he states that “having the family

business definitely helped create an added advantage to access finance for the

project” (2009). He asserts that having “the extra backing of a job and the restaurant

has eased the strain on the repayments...providing the extra flexibility of including

more features for the house” (T Lim 2009, pers. comm., 28 Aug). He also

acknowledges that his position is more privileged than others and admits that “the

Page 55: Studies of Local Development Projects in Cabramatta · 2013-04-11 · Studies of Local Development Projects in ... Mum, Dad, A Ma and A Gong together with Biggy, Yi Tsair and Re

47

project would not have likely to have been started if that had not been the case” (T

Lim 2009, pers. comm., 28 Aug).

Tieu Maung disclosed that financing for her duplex development came in the form of

the “first home owners grant together with combined savings” from both her and her

husband (2009). She mentioned that “the bank also took into consideration income

levels and was eventually convinced to help finance the project” (T N Maung 2009,

pers. comm., 13 Sept). Before the project began, they “stayed in the house for six

months to satisfy requirements for the first home owners grant and continued on with

the commencement of the project” (T N Maung 2009, pers. comm., 13 Sept). They

subsequently managed to sell one side whilst holding on to the other as a rental

property (T N Maung 2009, pers. comm., 13 Sept). This strategy has “helped free up

much needed capital and eased some of the financial strains” they were experiencing

at the time (T N Maung 2009, pers. comm., 13 Sept).

Developer X helps provide some further insight for development financing for higher

density projects. He indicates that “prior to the townhouse development he had been

buying property independently for some time” and that the townhouse development

came about “by getting into a consortium with my brothers” whom also were heavily

invested into other property themselves (Developer X 2009, pers. comm., 31 Aug).

Developer X sees this as a really crucial factor for the development as it meant that

they “could muster a significant sum of cash together and use the combined personal

assets as a further guarantee to financiers” (2009). He advises that this provided an

effective way to gain leverage and get into property development; “I don’t think the

project would have happened without this” (Developer X 2009, pers. comm., 31 Aug).

By the same token, he considers it to be “highly risky and dangerous” explaining that

he had no protection on his personal assets (Developer X 2009, pers. comm., 31

Aug).

Developer X had indicated that finance was a very delicate stage in “which everyone

needed to know what they were going to get out of project” (2009). He admits “it was

tricky working alongside family members as many things can go out of hand”

(Developer X 2009, pers. comm., 31 Aug). In this particular stage, the process was

carried on with extra diligence taking “approximately five months for the financing

Page 56: Studies of Local Development Projects in Cabramatta · 2013-04-11 · Studies of Local Development Projects in ... Mum, Dad, A Ma and A Gong together with Biggy, Yi Tsair and Re

48

agreements to be finalised” (Developer X 2009, pers. comm., 31 Aug). “The loan was

serviced with personal incomes and investment vehicles from all parties during the

entire process...upon the eventual sale of all the units in the townhouse development

was paid off in full” (Developer X 2009, pers. comm., 31 Aug).

5.2.4 Development and Approvals Process

There were also various approaches to the development process and approvals

application undertaken for each local development project. In part, the differences in

these approaches are seemingly reflective of the experience of each local developer.

More importantly, it reveals particular practices which may prove crucial to the

successful rollout of future housing developments in the area.

For both the duplex developments, Tieu Maung and Wilson Chang indicated that

they both purchased different home packages as advertised by some building

companies (2009). Having already purchased the land, Tieu Maung describes that

they “engaged Masterton homes for their duplex development, to be responsible for

all parts of the development and approvals work” (2009). After having picked out their

design, fittings and materials, she mentioned that the company proceeded with

submitting the relevant subdivision plans, development application

lodgement...construction and landscaping of the dwelling (T N Maung 2009, pers.

comm., 13 Sept). In hindsight, Tieu Maung believes that “although the company had

got the job done and provided assistance throughout most stages of

development...the end cost of the whole project worked out to be quite expensive

and the quality of the workmanship did not live up to the imagination” (2009). Upon

post construction inspections, she had “found many defects and imperfection with

materials and detail in the work” (T N Maung 2009, pers. comm., 13 Sept). Tieu

Maung stressed that perhaps the most difficult part of the project entailed “seeking

agreements with neighbouring properties for the creation of a drainage easement” of

which she and her husband pursued themselves; this was in addition to the fact that

“the whole project was significantly long...lasting approximately about two years to

complete” (2009).

In contrast, Wilson Chang had engaged Lily Homes for his duplex development

(2009). Like the case of Tieu Maung, the whole project was predominately delivered

Page 57: Studies of Local Development Projects in Cabramatta · 2013-04-11 · Studies of Local Development Projects in ... Mum, Dad, A Ma and A Gong together with Biggy, Yi Tsair and Re

49

by the company. He recounts that it was a ‘smooth and easy process with the

company providing guidance through the approvals and building phases” (W Chang

2009, pers. comm., 12 Sept). In terms of pricing, he agreed that he had spent more

than he initially wanted to, “having added many extras...partly due to slight delays”,

but was satisfied with the product delivered (W Chang 2009, pers. comm., 12 Sept).

Unlike Tieu Maung, Wilson noted that the project took approximately sixteen months

to complete (W Chang 2009, pers. comm., 12 Sept).

Other owner occupiers had decided to proceed with other approaches. Cliff La had

revealed that he was “not in charge of the development and approvals process”

(2009). Previous arrangements meant “that the tasks were overseen by a project

manager”; commissioned by his brother to assume the majority of responsibilities for

the entire project (C La 2009, pers. comm., 3 Sept). Unlike Masterton and Lily

Homes, the project manager was “briefed on the design outcomes as well as the

budget”. The project manager proceeded to undertake the project by “selecting and

contracting the architect, planners and builders suitable for the project” (C La 2009,

pers. comm., 3 Sept). Stages vital to the development were noted down as “the

subdivision of land, creation of an easement to access new lot located towards the

back...and the design and planning approvals for both the existing and new houses”

whereby the respective tasks were delegated to the responsible contractors (C La

2009, pers. comm., 3 Sept). With regular briefings for each stage, Cliff and his

brother were “kept updated with the progress of the project and any potential

setbacks” which may have occurred (C La 2009, pers. comm., 3 Sept). He

acknowledges that he was “disappointed in settling with the subdivision pattern”,

which was initially “meant to be subdivided into three other separate lots not two”, the

final design was reached on the basis of council recommendations (C La 2009, pers.

comm., 3 Sept). Despite this, he felt that the whole process was a relative success (C

La 2009, pers. comm., 3 Sept).

For Thi Lim and townhouse builder Developer X, the outfit used for their development

and approvals process also varied slightly to other local developers. Thi Lim

personally drove the project himself primarily “to ensure control of all elements of the

redevelopment and save on costs” (T Lim 2009, pers. comm., 28 Aug). The tasks he

oversaw included the “costing, design, planning and construction...contracting out

Page 58: Studies of Local Development Projects in Cabramatta · 2013-04-11 · Studies of Local Development Projects in ... Mum, Dad, A Ma and A Gong together with Biggy, Yi Tsair and Re

50

tasks to individuals and local companies” (T Lim 2009, pers. comm., 28 Aug). He

regards the whole process to be generally successful, attributing it to the “skills and

cooperation from each member of the team and because it was relatively small scale

by nature” (T Lim 2009, pers. comm., 28 Aug). Outcomes in the design and planning

phases were characterised by council’s concerns about the built form of the

development and “how it did not relate to the designs of existing dwellings around the

land” (T Lim 2009, pers. comm., 28 Aug). Revisions to the design ensured that the

development was approved (T Lim 2009, pers. comm., 28 Aug).

For Developer X and his consortium, after having reached initial agreements

between parties involved, “the project continued to investigate potential sites capable

of supporting a townhouse development” (2009) . Consequently, they were able to

piece together “three pieces of land adjoining one another to create a total area of

approximately 1800 square metres” (Developer X 2009, pers. comm., 31 Aug). They

proceeded on to the design and planning phases whereby initial designs were found

to be not entirely satisfactory and were subsequently revised and worked through

with council officers (Developer X 2009, pers. comm., 31 Aug). Developer X outlines

that “the main issue was related to the prescribed floor space ratios” in which he and

his team had proposed a design solution which made way for a slight increase

(2009). The problem was eventually settled with changes to the developments layout

and design, effectively meeting the council’s floor space requirements (Developer X

2009, pers. comm., 31 Aug). In terms of construction, Developer X notes that they

were “able to save a significant amount of money because the project was able to

source materials and labour directly through personal work” (2009). In total the

project task lasted for just over 20 months to complete from inception right through to

delivering the units to the market (Developer X 2009, pers. comm., 31 Aug).

5.2.5 Market Response

Generally, market responses to local developer projects were said to be well

received. A general comparison of sales and rental outcomes of each particular

project does highlight some areas of contrast and may be useful in providing an

indication of the local market trends and capacity.

Page 59: Studies of Local Development Projects in Cabramatta · 2013-04-11 · Studies of Local Development Projects in ... Mum, Dad, A Ma and A Gong together with Biggy, Yi Tsair and Re

51

Cliff La stated that although there was a good level of interest for the new dwelling,

many potential buyers were concerned with the fact that it was situated towards to

back of the existing dwelling away from the street (2009). As a result of this and the

timing of placement onto the market, “there were few serious buyers... the offer

prices were below what was expected” and hence below what they were willing to

accept (C La 2009, pers. comm., 3 Sept). In turn, they “decided to rent out the

property instead... focusing on a sale later down the track (C La 2009, pers. comm., 3

Sept).

Tieu Maung notes that the sale and rental of the duplex development was well

received when put to the market, having pointed out that a buyer and a rental tenant

was “found within two and a half months from the time of listing” whereby “the sale of

one half of the duplex fell just below initial expectations” (2009). She estimates that in

hypothetical case of having to sell the other side, she would have achieved a

comfortable profit (T N Maung 2009, pers. comm., 13 Sept). For now, her “strategy is

to hold onto the remaining property of which is collecting above market rent” (T N

Maung 2009, pers. comm., 13 Sept).

Similar to Tieu Maung, Wilson Chang indicates that whilst he has been living on one

side of his duplex, he is “renting the other side out at an above market rate” (2009).

He justifies this rate by saying that “it is a new development with new facilities and

better environment” (W Chang 2009, pers. comm., 12 Sept). He believes that people

whom “are looking for a good quality home should be willing to pay a premium”,

simplifying later on that “it just makes financial and commercial sense” (W Chang

2009, pers. comm., 12 Sept). He also indicates that the rental listing was well

received, “taking approximately a month to place a tenant within the property” ((W

Chang 2009, pers. comm., 12 Sept).

Thi Lim points out that if he had the intention of selling his property, he would have

opted to “developed either a duplex or triplex development” (2009). He says that

“although most would fancy living in his house, it is too expensive for most people in

this area to consider purchasing” (T Lim 2009, pers. comm., 28 Aug). He adds that

“the redeveloped property would only attract people with large families which make

up a small proportion of the local residential market” (T Lim 2009, pers. comm., 28

Page 60: Studies of Local Development Projects in Cabramatta · 2013-04-11 · Studies of Local Development Projects in ... Mum, Dad, A Ma and A Gong together with Biggy, Yi Tsair and Re

52

Aug). From his real estate experience, he considers that “developers should pursue

medium density housing...from duplex through to townhouse developments...this

would be more appropriate for the local market and be easier to sell” (T Lim 2009,

pers. comm., 28 Aug). Developers whom “focus on apartment type living would face

high levels of risk and failure to appeal to the market in terms of pricing” (T Lim 2009,

pers. comm., 28 Aug). He believes that the ultimate solution for apartments would

need to entail “a successful combination of reasonable apartment prices, profits to

the developer and excellent building quality” (T Lim 2009, pers. comm., 28 Aug).

From his point of view, “this would fill the gap in the market but would very difficult to

deliver” (T Lim 2009, pers. comm., 28 Aug).

In Developer X’s circumstances, prior to completion of the project, their marketing

campaign involved “selling the properties off the plan to reduce the burden on

borrowed costs and risk” (2009). They “managed to sell the majority of the

townhouse units and experienced minor delays for the sale of 3 remaining units”.

Despite this and “having revised the unit prices... were able to sell the units over an

additional two and a half months” (Developer X 2009, pers. comm., 31 Aug). As the

project was Developer X’s first major housing development, he “believes the returns

made overall were fair...satisfied with the overall outcomes” (Developer X 2009, pers.

comm., 31 Aug). From the overall response, he considers that the successes they

were able to create from the project came in the form of “delivering the type of

housing people want to live in” (Developer X 2009, pers. comm., 31 Aug).

5.2.6 Future of Development

Although unsure about any potential future projects which they may roll out, the local

developers were optimistic about the future development for the area. Their

perceptions were founded generally on the basis of the changes they believe are

taking place in the area, their recent experiences and the redevelopment capabilities

of available land stocks.

Both Wilson Chang and Tieu Maung consider that the ambitions of the local people

and in particular, young couples wanting to take advantage of government grants,

together with the relatively lower price of real estate will produce continued demand

for home ownership in this area (2009). “The area provides the ideal conditions for

Page 61: Studies of Local Development Projects in Cabramatta · 2013-04-11 · Studies of Local Development Projects in ... Mum, Dad, A Ma and A Gong together with Biggy, Yi Tsair and Re

53

families to realise their dreams of living in a new and spacious home and for others to

get into the market” (Maung, 2009). Discounting locational factors such as exclusivity

and travel, “other places are just simply too expensive and not worth the money to

live in; for the average price of an apartment or terrace close to the city, you can buy

a decent sized house with much more space” (Chang, 2009). Wilson Chang adds

that this alone will make the place attractive for most people into the future (2009).

Cliff La, whom has noticed over the years a gradual increase in newer home

developments, believes “that people will eventually realise and take advantage of the

fact that the area has great opportunities for growth and improvement” (2009). Whilst

the area in general may not be as appealing to live in as opposed to other more

favourable parts in Sydney, future developments have much to benefit from the

existing rail facilities, commercial districts, open space and other public, private

services (C La 2009, pers. comm., 3 Sept). Cliff also believes that “there are great

opportunities to capitalise on run down fibro houses and walk up buildings...for walk

up buildings in particular, it makes sense to renovate and provide additional levels to

these buildings; the catch being to persuade council to change the planning

provisions and making sure that it is viable” (La, 2009).

In the views of Thi Lim and Developer X, the current capacity of land is under-utilised

and presents many opportunities for redevelopment (2009). Thi Lim speculates that

many people like him will continue to invest and build newer houses in the area

because it is very straight forward and accessible market (T Lim 2009, pers. comm.,

28 Aug). Developer X regards that the prospect of larger scale property projects

occurring into the future remains very promising and will be very beneficial for the

local area but imagines that the task would be very difficult to undertake (2009). From

experience, it is perceived that “the biggest barriers include raising enough funds for

the project, getting the cooperation of council to change planning

provisions...including increases floor space ratios and zoning” and “finding the ideal

location to build” (Developer X, 2009).

5.3 Summary

The results of this chapter have revealed detailed accounts of local developer

experiences in Cabramatta. Largely as a result of their circumstances, local

developers have been able to find capitalise in local development opportunities, often

Page 62: Studies of Local Development Projects in Cabramatta · 2013-04-11 · Studies of Local Development Projects in ... Mum, Dad, A Ma and A Gong together with Biggy, Yi Tsair and Re

54

through an orderly styles of approach. By their accounts, we see certain areas of

strengths and weaknesses, information which would greatly assist in determining

how policy intervention can better instigate larger scale renewal and consolidation in

the area.

The following chapter will provide an in-depth discussion of these findings in relation

to current issues as raised in Chapters 2 and 3 as well as providing

recommendations regarding future policy interventions.

6. Research Evaluation

6.1 Overview

The research evaluation will attempt to interpret these findings in relation to the key

issues which have emerged as a result of the literature review and housing

background in Cabramatta. It will subsequently provide recommendations for the

development of best practice initiatives concerning the future of urban renewal and

consolidation in area.

6.2 Evaluation of Findings

Findings from the interviews have provided an in-depth understanding of the intricate

details pertaining to key themes emerging from local developer activities in the area.

For a start, it can be said that the neoliberal policies to housing has been an effective

tool in encouraging local developers to partake in providing new and additional

supplies of dwellings to the area – doing justice to those who have advanced the

benefits of urban entrepreneurism.

In the first instance, it is clear that current arrangements for local development

provide local developers opportunities to gain profit as well as to increase their

personal security. Although they were not prepared to reveal figures relating to this,

judging from the information provided and based on their future aspirations, it is fair

to say that these projects do offer a return great enough to make these project

undertakings worth it. In a way, this does dispel some of the allegations that housing

renewal and consolidation related projects for the area not feasible. This might

however, be the case for professional practices which leads one to think that perhaps

incorporating larger developers into the picture for long term renewal and

consolidation may not be the ideal solution; given the high margins and fees they

impose onto development projects.

In addition to this, it was also found that local developers have sought to a variety of

approaches for their projects. In most cases, their experience has shown that many

of the approaches were relatively straight forward and was done with relatively little

Page 65: Studies of Local Development Projects in Cabramatta · 2013-04-11 · Studies of Local Development Projects in ... Mum, Dad, A Ma and A Gong together with Biggy, Yi Tsair and Re

57

complications. This was further enhanced as it was made aware that all had in some

way leveraged the skills and resources of other parties in the local area. This ranged

from accessing services of professional builders, local businesses and utilising family

ties. It can be said that because of this feature, local development projects are

instilled with a high degree of flexibility and options which suit local developer

circumstances – an element which corporate bodies don’t have due to those policies

and bureaucratic structures that have been put in place effectively slowing them

down.

In a more critical sense, such features have been important attribute to the very

reason which has enabled low density developments, similar to those belonging to

the local developers interviewed, to take place in Cabramatta. Certainly, with the

current housing stock and lot configurations and infrastructure capacity this is would

be the obvious task to undertake as opposed for large scale higher density projects -

which carries a great deal of intricacy in negotiations, deal making and risk .The

combined effect of all this is confirmed with the fact that the majority of local

residential projects have been in the form of low density developments as was

revealed in findings derived from the local development audit included in Chapter 3.

Whilst they do not represent the ideal solution to densification outcomes, new

developments have generally contributed positively to the urban landscape and

building performance. This has been beneficial in terms of improving the liveability to

suit contemporary lifestyles as well as improving quality of the urban environment as

a whole. At this stage, housing and rental affordability have not been too much of an

issue as local developer experiences indicated that they are meeting current market

capacity.

Circumstantially though, in view of growing concerns relating to affordability, growth

and the deteriorating state of housing, current local developments may be a of

additional impetus for future development issues. Where there are already limited

capacities for high density developments to take place, by development pace and

land opportunities, it seems that the long term consequences of these low density

projects may further impact larger scale renewal and consolidation prospects by way

of complicating the processes of site assembly, escalate the price of land and hence

Page 66: Studies of Local Development Projects in Cabramatta · 2013-04-11 · Studies of Local Development Projects in ... Mum, Dad, A Ma and A Gong together with Biggy, Yi Tsair and Re

58

affect any profitability of housing projects, increase resource consumption by way of

destroying good quality developments and most importantly render high density

developments incompatible with those land uses.

Consequently, it is by the absence of detailed policy, effective governance structures

and public funding then that Ruming and others consider to current ad hoc style of

development will not effectively satisfy the broader social, economic and

environmental concerns (2007). In light of this, it is logical then to introduce direct

forms of government intervention to address the renewal and consolidation problems

in Cabramatta. For local developers this would produce more positive outcomes in

terms of realising greater development outcomes and profits. Whilst it would be a

source of increased competition, it would provide greater incentives for them to

continue developing within the area.

6.3 Best Practice Recommendations

The findings obtained from local developers have provided some ideas in forming

best practice solutions which can better address urban renewal and consolidation

issues in Cabramatta. Because the state and the local governments would most

likely be responsible for initiating such an approach, these ideas pay particular focus

to their roles as well as their interactions with other private entities.

The first of these ideas looks to the prospect of incorporating public-private

partnerships as an alternative solution to current development practices. This is a

crucial concept for housing development in Cabramatta as experiences in the US

have found, such partnerships have lead to improved coordination of resources as

well as policy outcomes (Nye & Glickman 2000, p 194-197). Establishing public-

private partnerships for future building developments would offer greater

opportunities for housing renewal and development to overcome existing

impediments and concerns as examined throughout the literature. As Bratt has

identified, such partnerships may be modelled of combinations incorporating the

participation of the public sector through local housing authorities, the private for-

profit sector, and non-profit organisations (2008). In the context of Cabramatta, this

would likely require the participation from bodies such as the Department of Housing,

Department of Planning, Fairfield City Council, various building groups and local

Page 67: Studies of Local Development Projects in Cabramatta · 2013-04-11 · Studies of Local Development Projects in ... Mum, Dad, A Ma and A Gong together with Biggy, Yi Tsair and Re

59

community co-operatives to name a few. The challenge this however, is to be as

clear as possible about how each type of developer can best play a role that would

lead to fruitful and mutually beneficial collaborations or partnerships (Bratt 2008).

As it stands, current arrangements are primarily one dimensional, mainly carried out

by many small scale developers for purposes of profit and security and are not

conducive in meeting effective long term housing needs and objectives for the area.

Partnership arrangements would ultimately create a better set up for parties to

negotiate, benefit from increased capabilities to draw from each other’s strengths and

at the same time counter their own weaknesses. As found in local developer

responses, the features which serve to justify and benefit local projects include

having connections to established business and building networks as well as an

understanding of community viewpoints. Arranging public-private partnerships would

allow the state and local government to gain access and benefit from these key

strengths, not to mention other experiences and skill sets in particular areas of the

development phase. In Developer X’s case for example, this might result in gaining

better knowledge of site assembly for the benefit of new larger scale projects. Other

potential scenarios for collaboration may also look to combine the existing design

and construction synergies of home builders such as Masterton and Lily Homes, as

commissioned by Tieu Maung and Wilson Chang. These bodies can offer efficient

access to a network of builders, materials sourcing, and expertise in design,

engineering and construction

In turn, what this means for interested development bodies, either professional or

local, is that they would gain vital support in areas which they may not be as efficient.

This may include improved guidance and efficient engagement to the planning

system and related processes. Risks to developers may also be reduced. In terms of

property acquisition and initial cash outlay, there is capacity for the state and local

government to supply, in exchange for low income housing, local land stocks which

may be available in their holdings or perhaps through compulsory acquisition powers.

As opposed to individual developers whom may undertake large scale projects on

alternative land located away from commercial zones, major road, rail and other

infrastructure facilities, such avenues of approach would provide better convenience

to the community and present more sustainable development through redeveloping

Page 68: Studies of Local Development Projects in Cabramatta · 2013-04-11 · Studies of Local Development Projects in ... Mum, Dad, A Ma and A Gong together with Biggy, Yi Tsair and Re

60

existing housing stocks and in particular of those notorious 3-4 storey walk up flat

buildings that are characteristic of the area. Together, these arrangements may also

result in significant cost savings incurred throughout the course of a project.

The notion of embracing public-private partnerships leads us to the second idea for

improving renewal and consolidation prospects for the local area– that is to create

greater funding options available to development entities. As we have learned from

local developer responses, financing for their respective projects was largely

obtained by leveraging off personal assets and income streams. This confirms the

broader trend that private-sector funding has been a dominant source of urban

regeneration finance with equity, provided by the developer, and debt being the

principal methods (Adair et al, 2003). Such financial arrangements have so far been

adequate in producing developments generally no greater than medium density type

housing and would prove very challenging and risky for developers wanting to

undertake anything greater. Even for Thi Lim and Developer X, who have relatively

strong financial capacities and are well equipped in undertaking medium sized

projects themselves, would experience difficulties in raising the required finance for

larger scale projects if they had intended to.

The solution is to improve what Begg terms as the “investability” of cities (2002), or

taken in this case to be Cabramatta. The state and local government should create,

in addition to available benefits, greater options for funding to generate bigger

incentives for developers to undertake such projects. As experiences in the UK have

shown, such mechanisms have been a primary instigator of regeneration

programmes, providing effective solutions in for renewal in particularly complex areas

(Tyler, 2001). These include providing various grant based mechanisms, gap funding

(Tyler, 2001) and arranging medium and long term capital (Urban Task Force, 1999)

for developers. Methods of incorporating programmes which allocate future increases

in property taxes from a designated area to pay for improvements within that specific

area, better known as tax incremental financing or TIFs have also been the option of

many municipalities in the US to facilitate the infrastructure improvements which

accompanying renewal and consolidation efforts (Dye & Merriman, 1999, Ratcliffe et

al., 1999 sourced in Adair et al 2003)

Page 69: Studies of Local Development Projects in Cabramatta · 2013-04-11 · Studies of Local Development Projects in ... Mum, Dad, A Ma and A Gong together with Biggy, Yi Tsair and Re

61

Depending on the nature of how the state, local council and development entities are

engaged, funding options for renewal and consolidation in Cabramatta may include,

but not limited to establishing redevelopment trusts, low interest loan packages,

staged cash injections, remodelling developer contribution payments and or special

tax treatments to encourage developers to undertake land regeneration for low

income housing. For larger institutional developers, this would mean greater

capacities for them to alleviate some of the perceived risks which are currently

keeping them away from any involvement in regeneration and consolidation projects

in the area.

Emerging from the research, the third proposal to improve renewal and consolidation

in Cabramatta is the need to update current planning provisions to better support

new higher density outcomes. As well as better aligning state directions as

prescribed in the Metropolitan and West Central subregional strategies, changes to

planning controls would ultimately prepare the right foundation and capacity for

renewal and higher density housing. This would in turn create more certainty to

development entities and to the market. From local developer experiences, example

issues which proved to be troublesome to their development aspirations were found

to be in the areas relating to floor space ratios, building design and subdivision

patterns. Although we may not know the complete justifications of council decisions

regarding these points of conflicts at the time of local developer projects, it does

highlight that current controls, weather appropriate or not, may in fact be deterring

the prospects of renewed or higher density developments from taking place. In

review of the provisions in Fairfield City Council’s Local Environmental Plan (LEP)

1994, few elements were found to adequately provide opportunities for the delivery of

higher density housing within Cabramatta. This is particularly so for land situated

close to the commercial centre and railway station. Some elements were found to

support opportunities for ample redevelopment and renovation projects, but not on

any major scale. The major point of the whole problem is that developers are left

directionless. Without this direction, it has left a greater tendency for building

development to occur in an uncoordinated fashion that does not properly relate to

existing facilities.

Page 70: Studies of Local Development Projects in Cabramatta · 2013-04-11 · Studies of Local Development Projects in ... Mum, Dad, A Ma and A Gong together with Biggy, Yi Tsair and Re

62

Some initial revisions to existing planning provisions may look to incorporate changes

to floor space ratios, increasing limits to built form and re-examining current zoning

allowances. Implementing such changes would ensure that future housing

developments have the flexibility to supply an increased number of dwellings per

development, take up less land and instigate increased housing diversity available to

the community. Further updates to design provisions would additionally ensure that

development would be carried out in manner that is reasonable and responds

appropriately to the desired future character of the local area. Of course, this would

be prepared in tandem with input from the community. In addition to these changes,

council may also consider developing specific guidance material for existing flat

buildings and townhouses as to generate greater capacity for renovation projects.

The most important of all changes would need to be the adoption of quadruple

bottom line requirements to ensure that future developments are financially and

economically viable, meet social goals and amongst other things, have concern for

the social and economic needs of the residents living in the housing (Bratt 2008).

Moreover, additional benefits may come in the form of creating specialised

regeneration zones or site specific master plans to house the changes existing

provisions. According to Bell, the method focuses on devising a document, or series

of documents, explaining the development proposals for an area by including a

strategy for the area, designs and implementation details (2005, p 85). Through this

place-based approach, the local council or housing authority may specify the desired

changes which can apply to relatively wide areas or perhaps, subject to detailed land

audits and investigations, to a series of key individual sites (Bell 2005, p 85). This

method of approach would ultimately place greater control with public authorities,

installing into development initiatives a high degree of co-ordination and

sophistication which might otherwise be lacking and thus mitigating the prospects of

rampant building development from taking place.

The ideas conveyed above will be crucial in forming best practice solutions to help

produce better outcomes for housing renewal and consolidation. As initiators of

future housing, the state and the local council must, before anything else re-evaluate

their current positions to housing development in the area and revise engagement

patterns to market participants. To proceed down the line with the same ad hoc

Page 71: Studies of Local Development Projects in Cabramatta · 2013-04-11 · Studies of Local Development Projects in ... Mum, Dad, A Ma and A Gong together with Biggy, Yi Tsair and Re

63

planning mentality and by continuing to promote greater stocks in private housing

developments as witnessed in previous sections, the future of housing in Cabramatta

is destined for failure. Although the recommendations may have been presented

separately, it is hoped that the state and council would look to combine them,

together with other outside measures, to produce a comprehensive approach for the

future of housing in Cabramatta.

6.4 Summary

We have observed that current local development practices have contributed to

renewal and consolidation outcomes in Cabramatta. Such forms of development

however, are unlikely to address the growing concerns of growth, urban decay and

housing affordability. If anything, they are perhaps more an obstacle to renewal and

consolidation prospects in the area.

Given the current housing development processes in Cabramatta, not to mention the

legal controls that govern them, developers are unlikely to fully bring about large

scale urban regeneration, which the area is in so much need of, together with

consolidation outcomes as proposed by the New South Wales Government. Those

mechanisms of best practice for future renewal and consolidation initiatives which

have been suggested offer an ideal solution to achieve this.

CHAPTER SEVEN – RESEARCH FINDINGS

7. Conclusion

7.1 Overview

The purpose of this chapter is to conclude the thesis by consolidating the information

and findings presented in the previous chapters. It will begin with a summation of the

research outcomes as well as the key recommendations concerning the future

development of urban renewal and consolidation policies in Cabramatta. Based on

these findings, a reflection on planning implications for the subregion as well as

suggestions for future research is included.

7.2 Research Outcomes

The research objective of this thesis has been to understand how best to renew and

consolidate the suburb of Cabramatta without adversely affecting current living

conditions and the general community. Given the location and existing context of the

area, investigations into local development projects have provided an ideal case

study to distil broad lessons of approach to better inform future renewal and

consolidation initiatives for not just Cabramatta but also for the broader area of the

West Central subregion.

The literature review concerning the key themes of urban renewal and urban

consolidation has also enabled greater perspectives on matters relating to

sustainability of development, governance and their impacts on the form and function

of low income communities and neighbourhoods. This has been specifically explored

through domestic and international experiences as outlined in Chapter 2.

In addition to this, by identifying the policies which has governed housing

development in Cabramatta, we have also been able to understand more thoroughly

the role of the state and local government in connection to the supply of housing in

low income areas as well as their relationship to housing providers and the

community at large. Transitions in housing policy in the past have illustrated a

general retraction of government based projects for the provision of low income

housing. Instead, its responsibilities have effectively become placed in the hands of

Page 74: Studies of Local Development Projects in Cabramatta · 2013-04-11 · Studies of Local Development Projects in ... Mum, Dad, A Ma and A Gong together with Biggy, Yi Tsair and Re

66

private developers and left to decisions of market. Where this approach may have

relieved housing problems in the past, it is no longer relevant to the context of today

and as such must be redesigned to better deal with current dilemmas relating to

physical deterioration, supply, affordability, the potential for displacement, funding

and other difficulties in the development process. Given the paradoxical nature of

current arrangements, government decisions in relation to housing in Cabramatta is

now more crucial than ever before. This was all highlighted throughout Chapter 3.

The design of the investigations into local developer experiences has provided

crucial insight in understanding the current strengths and limitations of property-led

local development practices taking place in a low income neighbourhood. Details

regarding the research together with an illustration of local developer profiles and

descriptions of their development projects have all been provided within Chapter 4.

Subsequent findings which focus on local developer decisions, choices in

development vehicles, funding arrangements and project outcomes have generated

a vital point of discussion in relation to forming best practice solutions for future urban

renewal and consolidation initiatives for Cabramatta. This is presented in Chapter 5

alongside the recommended changes needed in current initiatives.

Overall, the outcomes arising from the thesis has addressed those objectives and

questions which were set out prior to the commencement of the research. In doing

so, it has highlighted some of the mechanisms which would benefit efforts to renewal

and consolidate the suburb of Cabramatta.

7.3 Summary of Recommendations

The recommendations provided as part of the discussion of findings derived from this

research study focus primarily on the role of state and local government and their

relationship to development bodies and the community.

Public-private partnerships

The state and or local government should exploit the opportunities to work with

housing providers and local community operatives to instigate renewal and

Page 75: Studies of Local Development Projects in Cabramatta · 2013-04-11 · Studies of Local Development Projects in ... Mum, Dad, A Ma and A Gong together with Biggy, Yi Tsair and Re

67

consolidation projects within area. Current circumstances cannot attract the attention

of professional developers and so the majority of housing projects are mainly carried

out by many small scale developers for purposes of personal profit and security.

Unless partnership schemes are not implemented, development in the area is likely

to remain inefficient in meeting effective long term housing needs and objectives for

the area

Government-based funding

More government based funding mechanisms should also be put in place in addition

to current options. As private funds make up a large proportion of property

development funding, developers are stand to gain substantially lower profits for the

risks associated. As such development opportunities will likely continue to suffer from

the paralysis of financial burdens associated with property development. On

conditions that development projects will result in affordable and innovative housing

solutions, a range of funding mechanisms exists to help alleviate this. They include

establishing redevelopment trusts, designing low interest loan packages, offer staged

cash injections, creation of tax incentives and revising developer contribution plans.

Update existing policy provisions

Future housing renewal and consolidation projects are subject to the limitations of

current planning provisions. Current provisions have effectively capped the potential

for developments which may offer ideal housing solutions to the area in terms of

design and capacity. Existing provisions need to be reviewed and updated

accordingly to allow and encourage appropriate housing developments to take place.

Initial revisions to existing planning provisions may look to incorporate revisions to

floor space ratios, increasing limits to built form and re-examining current zoning

allowances. Updates to design provisions would additionally ensure that

development would be carried out in manner that is reasonable and responds

appropriately to the desired future character of the local area. The state and council

should also look to implement bottom line requirements to force development

outcomes to be more financially and economically viable, have regard to community

aspirations and attend to current social concerns.

Page 76: Studies of Local Development Projects in Cabramatta · 2013-04-11 · Studies of Local Development Projects in ... Mum, Dad, A Ma and A Gong together with Biggy, Yi Tsair and Re

68

Develop place-based policies

To specifically exploit development opportunities in strategic areas and to extreme

pockets of decline, the state and local government should look to create specialised

regeneration zones or site specific master plans to house the changes existing

provisions. As well as providing guidance to the future of development, this line of

approach would place greater control for public authorities to tailor development

outcomes more appropriately to relate to current issues for the community and future

growth of the area. It is also acts as an ideal way to muster in and house those other

mechanisms which have been already suggested, effectively improving the quality of

co-ordination and sophistication involved in the development process and thus

mitigating the prospects of rampant building development from taking place.

7.4 Suggestions for Future Research

The large scope of issues which urban renewal and consolidation prospects face in

area stresses a need for greater studies to be undertaken. This thesis has provided

some of the mechanisms which are designed to mitigate certain areas of concern

only by primarily examining local developer contributions. As those mechanisms

themselves exist in many different variations and can be combined in innovative

ways, future research can look to provide thorough modeling of their individual

impacts.

As discussed before, the primary research was not without limitations. The research

could have covered a larger pool and a more extensive range of local residential

development projects. The refusal of the owner at 77 Hill Street makes a great

example to this. Even though the project was essentially more relevant to renewal

than to consolidation, it would have provided important insight into better ways of

reinvigorating and managing outdated walkup buildings. Further research into these

particular experiences also exists for future capacities.

In the specific context for improving renewal and consolidation for the wider areas of

the subregion, examinations into local developer experiences in other localities

Page 77: Studies of Local Development Projects in Cabramatta · 2013-04-11 · Studies of Local Development Projects in ... Mum, Dad, A Ma and A Gong together with Biggy, Yi Tsair and Re

69

modelled similar to the primary research of this thesis provides further opportunities

of investigations. The development context of other areas may prove to be

substantially different to that of Cabramatta and would information collected would

add to a comprehensive body of knowledge to inform broad policy implications

7.5 Final Remarks

From a strategic point of view, the West Central subregion remains as one of the

most crucial areas in Metropolitan Sydney which offer great opportunities to support

additional dwellings and to meet housing demands for future. There are now even

more incentives to do this as much of the housing in the area are nearing the end of

their physical and economic lifecycles.

As revealed in this thesis, increasing the scale of both the state and local

governments involvement in housing collaborations will be a crucial in achieving this

as well as delivering more sustainable outcomes for the community. Government

intervention through the form of development partnerships, financial leveraging and

policy and plan changes will been an effective means of ensuring that housing stays

affordable, development projects remain viable and housing quality is improved.

Though these mechanisms will benefit renewal and consolidation prospects, it should

be pointed out that many other options are also available for adoption. The key to this

task however is in the ability of the state and local government to incorporate such

mechanisms into a comprehensive strategy, one which pulls together the resources

and knowledge from various sources to better co-ordinate future development and

serve the interests of the community. This will undoubtedly impact on how

development takes place as well as providing a clear vision going forward.
