The Green Our City Action Plan was commissioned by City of Melbourne to explore how standards might enable development to meaningfully contribute to achieving sustainability and urban green infrastructure goals and what the socio-economic benefits of implementing such standards might be for residents, workers and visitors. Focusing on regulatory provisions, the study provides high quality technical information that assists councils, developers, landscape architects and other designers to incorporate urban green infrastructure into their projects. The jury commends the design team’s detailed work which will be of great use to the landscape architecture profession in their work on inner-city environments.
Green Our City Action Plan was developed in City of Melbourne, Victoria on the land of the Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung and Bunurong Boon Wurrung peoples.
