Greater Perth Movement (original) (raw)
The Greater Perth Movement describes a movement in the first two decades of the twentieth century to consolidate the town planning and urban administration of the Perth metropolitan region of Western Australia under municipal governance. The movement is most strongly associated with its chief proponent, W.E. Bold, who was influenced by ideas of municipal socialism, and saw its initial successes in the amalgamation of the local governments of Perth, North Perth and Leederville in 1914, joined by Victoria Park in 1917. Following the 1920s there was a shift away from municipal consolidation towards metropolitan planning under statutory authorities of the state government commencing with the creation of the Metropolitan Region Planning Committee in 1963.
