Greens MP Adam Bandt warned the Premier Ted Baillieu to not repeat past big development failures with his Urban Renewal Authority and said he will take a keen interest in developments proposed for Melbourne.

The Victorian government has flagged new large scale developments in and on the edge of the electorate of Melbourne including at Richmond State, North Melbourne and Fisherman's Bend.

"The new government must not ride roughshod over the locals like the previous Brumby government. The local community with their council must have the final say over how these projects proceed," the Member for Melbourne, Greens MP Adam Bandt

"We support urban renewal and higher density in the inner city but don't want another Docklands where not enough thought was put into social infrastructure, building community and urban design."

"There needs to be real consultation and a community veto over these projects. We don't need another Windsor hotel debacle."

"We also need to look more closely at the wisdom of large high-rises as the solution. There are sigificant question marks over the sustainability of many of these approaches to building, in particular housing."

"I will be meeting with the government and relevant departments soon to obtain more detail on these plans and what they mean for my electorate."

"And the community's interest will be my primary focus as these plans develop."
