Master Plans Case Study

Seminar 4: Master Plans Case Study
Speakers: Emily, Stuart and Nic

Why do we need a Master Plan?
  • Provide the appropriate physical environments to support strong communities
  • Support a rich and pleasurable quality of life for inhabitants and visitors
  • Connect people and places by providing ease of movement within, and through, developments
  • Create places of distinction and enduring quality
Who prepares a Master Plan?
  • In Canberra, the Environment and Sustainable Development Directorate prepares master plans for all group centres, key transport access strips and areas adjacent to town centres
  • Other government executives sometimes prepare master plans, but they are typically development plans for specific sites or confined locations
Master Plan process
  • Source information
  • Seek advice from specialist consultants
  • Prepare a draft vision, and present back to community and stakeholders for comment
  • Present the master plan to government for endorsement
  • Release the master plan to the public
