Expert: Planners and developers must adhere to master plan

Endsley says people are afraid of losing their public space.

A PROPERTY market expert from the United States says the public is bound to become negative towards any dense development in their neighbourhood due to fear of losing public space.

World Citizen Consulting’s principal consultant Bill Endsley said such resistance was common among residents anywhere around the world but the idea of high-density development did not mean that there should be no public space that comes with it.
