The City extends from Ballajura and Malaga in the west to Gidgegannup in the east and from Bullsbrook in the north to Midland, Guildford and Hazelmere in the south. It's not surprising that they’re the largest local government in the Perth metropolitan area. With a population of approximately 150,000 residents in 2018, the City is a thriving hub of economic growth, consisting of some of the fastest growing suburbs in Western Australia, which include Ellenbrook, The Vines, Aveley and the Urban Growth Corridor suburbs of Brabham, Dayton and Caversham. The City of Swan is a major growth area for the North East Metropolitan region which also encompasses the Shire of Mundaring and City of Kalamunda. By 2050, they are expected to accommodate over 60 per cent of the population for this region. Their major tourist attractions - including the magnificent Swan Valley and significant Aboriginal and European heritage sites - bring millions of local, national and international tourists every year. Midland Town Centre is a major strategic centre for the City of Swan and surrounds. Midland is expected to cater for a further 6,900 infill dwellings to meet the Perth and Peel @ 3.5 million targets. As such a significant area for future growth, the City is focussed on investing in Midland, enhancing its role as a strategic centre and as a great place to live, work and play. City of Swan have been members of CEDA since 2016. www.swan.wa.gov.au . keynote speaker Hon.
