The NSW Planning Green Paper has caused much concern among community groups, over 50 of which have now banded together under the umbrella of the Better Planning Network http://betterplanningnetwork.good.do/nsw/email-the-premier/
Their main concern is the focus on "economic development and competitiveness" over the interests of residents and rate payers.
Here is an article by Wendy Bacon detailing the background to the group's formation and explaining how the notorious Eddie Obeid fits into the picture:
