Number of countries that have national urban policies or regional development plans that (a) respond to population dynamics; (b) ensure balanced territorial development; and (c) increase local fiscal space
Singapore's land use plans take into account major land needs and trends in our local and global environment, including population dynamics and balanced territorial development. The two key plans that guide our urban development are the Long-Term Plan which maps out strategic land uses and infrastructure needs over 50 years and beyond, and the Master Plan which translates development strategies into detailed plans to guide the development of land and property in the nearer term.
Plans are regularly reviewed to allow us to cater for a range of possibilities, taking into account evolving factors that affect the built environment – including social, demographic, technological and environmental trends, the global environment, as well as the changing needs of Singaporeans.
The concept of local fiscal space is not applicable as Singapore is a city state.
