Goals
High density, trigger development. Buildings to be a minimum of 5000m² over a minimum of 3 floors. A civic gesture. Commercial, institutional, health, leisure, transport interchange, retail, mixed use programs (not solely residential though can have a residential component).
Triple bottom line. Ecologically sustainable development (ESD) ‐ aiming for a 6 star Green Star design rating. Sustaining and building on the skills and cultural diversity within the existing Broadmeadows community. How can these ecological and social assets tie in to an economically sensible program to create a vibrant, safe, healthy and sustainable district?
