Congratulations, you have just been awarded the job of Town Planner at the Casey City Council. Cranbourne is a growing area and there is a need for housing and businesses to support the large numbers of people moving here.
There are two very exciting opportunities available to you:
1. Create your very own town (option one). You have been given a blank space of land (the natural features are up to you) to turn into a thriving community.
2. Re-design Cranbourne (option two). Cranbourne has a lot of history and a lot of services for the Casey area. Your role is to improve the town so that it has even more services to make it a “hub” people will travel to from all over the area.
Which one will you choose?
