SuperTowns is a new Royalties for Regions initiative, giving Northam the opportunity to build on our town’s unique identity and vision. Northam was identified as a SuperTown for the first round of this initiative, along with Boddington, Collie, Esperance, Jurien Bay, Katanning, Manjimup, Margaret River and Morawa.
With the Western Australian population expected to double over the next 30 to 40 years, the SuperTowns initiative will offer more opportunities and amenities for people who choose to live in the regions and help provide an attractive alternative to Perth.
The first round of the SuperTown initiative would give the community the opportunity to plan and implement projects and services to cater for population and economic growth.
