The Community Centre / Recreation Area 3.4. The Village Entrances and Edges 3.5. The Village and it’s Views 4. Future Expansion 4.1. Stradbroke’s needs for the Future 4.2. Building Form, Design and Detail 4.3. Landscaping and Screening 4.4. Artefacts and Street Furniture 5. Managing Village Design 6. Summary of Recommendations Design is a very subjective issue. One person’s likes are another’s dislikes and trying to put some framework around what is good or bad design can seem very bureaucratic. This Village Design Statement should be thought of, not in terms of good or bad, but of “what is appropriate to Stradbroke?” Whether we like it or not, Stradbroke will probably expand over the next twenty years, the settlement boundaries may be extended during that time, there will be more housing, more traffic, more issues. We, the community, can either stand back and let things happen or we can participate and try to influence the change process for the overall benefit of the whole community. Village Design Statements are a very positive way of having the community’s views adopted as part of the Planning Process . 1. Introduction What is a Village Design As the name implies, the Village Design Statement Statement ? (VDS) is concerned specifically with the DESIGN of Stradbroke’s physical features and the layout of the village. It gives guidance on how these should be respected in any new development.

  • AC Batchelor
    Sustaining livability and a sense of place in a changing South African urban context - an environmental management pilot case study AC Batchelor orcid.org 0000-0002-6429-463X Mini-dissertation submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree Master of Environmental Management at the North-West University Supervisor: Prof JA du Pisani Graduation May 2018 23125268 1 Quotes: Livability concerns a state of meaningful life-experience within an environment that is safe and life sustaining, where social and political stability prevails and where people can relate to their social and spatial life-context with a positive sense of place and place attachment. Livability implies a context where people can access and cope with their real and tangible, as well as their remembered and perceived intangible realities (author‘s definition inspired by various sources 2017). Place is a geographical space that is defined by meanings, sentiments and stories, rather than by a set of co-ordinates. As a phenomenological concept, place is powerful both theoretically and practically because it offers a way to articulate more precisely the experienced wholeness of people-in-the-world, which phenomenologists call the lifeworld – the everyday world of taken-for-grantedness normally unnoticed and thus concealed as a phenomenon. This phenomenon is integral to human life and place holds lifeworlds together spatially and environmentally, marking out centres of human meaning, intention and comportment that, in turn, help make a place (Relph 1976). Sense of place (or genius loci), involves a concern for the familiar and implies a sense of belonging, rootedness, stability and identity (Horn 1998).
