urban growth in a comprehensive and relatively prescriptive manner, to ensure the resulting settlement pattern is sustainable—environmentally, socially and economically. It is to this end that Direction 3 of Melbourne 2030—Planning for sustainable growth provides the following policies with respect to urban growth areas: 3.1 Promote the growth of regional cities and key towns on regional transport corridors as part of a networked cities model 3.2 Control development in rural areas to protect agriculture and avoid inappropriate rural residential development Some of Geelong’s population growth can be accommodated through infill and redevelopment projects in appropriate locations. The forthcoming Geelong Medium Density Housing Strategy will identify where such development is appropriate. However, given that a single dwelling on its own block continues to be the preferred housing type for most Australian households, infill and re-development cannot accommodate the projected growth of Geelong without unacceptable increases in density. By way of reference, Melbourne 2030 projects that growth areas will still need to accommodate 38% of Melbourne’s growth despite proactive policies for increased densities in established areas. 1.2 THE ARMSTRONG CREEK GROWTH AREA The Armstrong Creek area was originally designated as a growth corridor in the 1980s by the Geelong Regional Commission. This was reinforced in 1994 by the Mount Duneed Armstrong Creek Urban Development Study. The status of this area as Geelong’s future urban growth corridor was confirmed again in the City’s Urban Growth Strategy 1996 and is supported by a range of Council documents. Geelong’s Municipal Strategic Statement (MSS) designates Armstrong Creek/ Mt Duneed as the “primary growth corridor for future urban growth” of Geelong, noting that “Stage 1 of the corridor will accommodate the bulk of Geelong’s long term growth”. The MSS gives the following reasons for designating Armstrong Creek as Geelong’s primary growth corridor: it is relatively close to the centre of Geelong; it is immediately adjacent to the Melbourne-Warrnambool railway line and possible railway station providing excellent public transport access to Geelong and Melbourne; it is immediately adjacent to the Surf Coast and Princes Highways; it is adjacent to existing development, which means that servicing can be incremental in line with the pace of development; and ARMSTRONG CREEK URBAN GROWTH PLAN / VOLUME 1 (ADOPTED 13 MAY 2008, AMENDED MAY 2010) 8
