Chapter 2 I Core Strategy
It is estimated that approximately 35,000 new jobs will be generated by the planned population growth targets of 125,000 additional people up to 2040. Geographically, lands have been zoned to accommodate the future demand in a manner that positively responds to wider challenges that includes targeting neighbourhoods where there are relatively high levels of unemployment,
creating inclusive and sustainable communities and anticipating likely market trends over the period to 2028. See Chapter 7 Economy and Employment for further details. There is currently a jobs shortfall in the allocation of employment lands within the North western suburbs. Over the Plan period it is intended to identify further employment lands that can fulfil the target jobs requirement.
