An energy efficient Urban Village has a mix of shops, offices, schools, industJy and residences. People have the opportunity to work, shop and undertake their daily activities just a short walk away from their homes. A centrally situated train station or tram stop provides quick, convenient access to other suburbs and the city centre. Parks and plazas are of a high quality and well used. A wide range of housing - apartments, terraces, granny flats and the traditional single storey family house - caters for an equally wide range of ages and lifestyles. Many buildings are two or more storeys and many share walls with adjoining buildings. Plenty of sunshine streams into indoor and outdoor living spaces because they are built to face the sun. The short distances, interconnected street network and traffic-calmed streets create safe and stimulating conditions in which to walk or bicycle. With lots ofpeople living and working in the buildings overlooking the streets, people feel more secure walking, even at night. Sandringham is one of the sites in Victoria chosen for the Pilot Study of Urban Villages. The study goal was to investigate the existing Village against the framework of a model Urban Village and to recommend action that would be necessary and financially viable to transform it over time into a vibrant and vital functioning Urban Village. This study is the result of teamwork between, the Bayside Municipal Staff: the representatives of the sponsoring agencies and the consultant team. The interest by the Sandringham Community and the local press provided invaluable feedback during the process. The commitment by the Study Team on the project extended beyond the responsibilities of each individual in their workplace into their own personal time. The project, particularly in the key community consultation stages, was a labor of care and concern for people and place.

The action necessary to transform the Village to a model Urban Village and bring life and economic vitality to the centre are: 1. provide a pedestrian link over the railway line at the end of Sandringham Road. 2. relocate the bus depot and provide car parking to the south end of the PTC Site enabling dual use of the parking spaces by commuters and shoppers. 3. enhance the pedestrian link between the PTC car park and the Bay Road shops. 4. establish residential development on the old police station and courthouse site and the northern end of the PTC land. 5. facilitate development of the vacant site at the comer of Abbott and Waltham Street~ with specialist shops and offices at ground floor level and residences above. 6. encourage redevelopment of the Sandringham Hotel to include residential development over the new specialist tourist shopping addressing the street frontages 7. encourage development form to respect and reflect the character and the scale of the existing housing stock and the original shopping precinct buildings and to translate the richness in detail in construction finishes .. 8. organise a meeting of owners of the Bay Road shops on the north side to consider redevelopment of the rear of their properties to provide car parking and service access at ground level with housing over. 9. inform owners of comer allotments of the opportunities for development of their properties as at least two housing sites each with road frontages. 10. inform owners with rear abutment to laneways to consider development of a second smaller residence overlooking the laneway. 11. inform owners of commercial properties of the opportunities to establish shop top housing, ·either as new developments or conversion or refurbishment of existing. 12. encourage the responsible authority to optimise the street network as safe pedestrian links. 13. encourage the responsible authority to implement the Urban Design Strategy of 1994 in particular to finalise the Railway Square. 14. instigate the action necessary for amendment to the Planning Scheme which would guide and control development toward that of the model Urban Village. 15. monitor change and development in the Urban Village and prepare for further stages of development such as the apartment block at the southend of the PTC land. (ii) GREENWAY H I R S T P A G E P T y L T D Sandringham Urban Village 1. Introduction Greenway Hirst Page Pty Ltd prior to this Urban Village Study had been engaged by the former City of Sandringham to prepare an Urban Design Strategy for the Sandringham Shopping Centre, the heart of the designated Urban Village, situated around the Railway Station. The Urban Design Strategy developed upon the studies previously undertaken for the Council by USE Consultants Pty. Ltd, Sandringhanz Shopping Centre Strategy, March 1994 and by TIM Consulting Pty. Ltd., Sandringhanz Shopping Centre Parking Strategy, April 1994 and Sandringhanz Shopping Centre Conservation Guidelines by Andrew C Ward and Associates, March 1994. These recent studies combine to provide the Strategic Framework for the Urban Village Study. In the Urban Design Strategy Study, Greenway Hirst Page Pty Ltd developed a cooperative working relationship with the Traders and the Cowicil representatives, providing a finn foundation of trust for the extensive community consultation proposed for the Urban Village Study. The Sandringham Shopping Centre, located approximately 16 kilometres south east of the Melbourne CBD immediately adjacent Port Phillip Bay, and the residential precinct surrounding it, already display elements of an Urban Village. It is situated around a transit hub, the Sandringham Railway Station, ~ interchange that links rail and bus services. The shopping centre provides services and facilities for regular shopping needs, has a mix of restaurants and small business and shop-top housing.

  • In the Shadow of Metropolitan Planning Local Plan Making in Melbourne, 1946 to 1976
    In the Shadow of Metropolitan Planning Local Plan Making in Melbourne, 1946 to 1976 Dr Benno Engels School of Global, Urban and Social Studies RMIT University Victoria, Australia [email protected] Melbourne has evolved and changed over time in response to the many challenges that this city has faced over the last century and a half. Some of this change was due to forces that lay beyond the control of those who governed it whereas other changes had been guided by local government acts and a handful of metropolitan level strategic plans. Largely absent from the historical narratives that have been written about the planning of Melbourne is what had happened to urban planning at the local level. This is a serious gap in our understanding of Melbourne’s historical urban development when it is remembered that local councils and shires had been charged with enforcing metropolitan strategy since 1955. It was at the local government level that the detailed strategic and statutory planning was undertaken but it was also here at the local level that a city’s capacity to respond to any newly emerging challenges were either expedited or stymied. In an attempt to shed some light on this much neglected facet of Melbourne’s urban planning history this paper proposes to investigate how much urban planning took place at the local level and what forms it took between 1944 to 1976, plus what factors may have impacted upon the local plan making process. Keywords — Local planning schemes; Town and Country Planning Board, Melbourne. INTRODUCTION Daniel Burnham, the famous American architect and urban planner of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, has been quoted as saying, ‘…make no little plans.

    Inquiry into Environmental Infrastructure for Growing Populations by Sue Forster Personal statement I am providing this submission in a personal capacity. My responses to this Inquiry are based on five years of experience as an environmental volunteer in City of Bayside reserves and Bayside Community Nursery, and ten months’ experience as Convenor for the Friends of Bay Road Heathland Sanctuary, Sandringham (see Appendix). Terms of Reference ‘The Legislative Assembly Environment and Planning Committee is seeking information on how to secure environmental infrastructure for Melbourne and regional Victoria now and into the future. In recent years, the rapid population growth of Melbourne and key regional centres has brought many benefits but also poses challenges to the preservation of existing infrastructure. Significant differences in the availability of environmental infrastructure also exist between different suburbs and different regions. More recently, COVID-19 has highlighted the importance of access to local parks, open space and other forms of environmental infrastructure.’ My understanding is that the Committee is interested in the views and insights of stakeholders on any aspect of the Terms of Reference, including the following issues: 1. the benefits of accessing and using different types of environmental infrastructure; 2. the impact of population growth in Melbourne and regional centres on the provision and preservation of environmental infrastructure; 3. differences in the availability of environmental infrastructure between different suburbs and between different regional centres; 4. the effectiveness of current legislation and planning provisions in securing environmental infrastructure; 5. existing delays or obstacles to securing environmental infrastructure; 6. the impact of COVID-19 on the importance, use and design of environmental infrastructure; 7.

  • SCG Victorian Councils Post Amalgamation
    Analysis of Victorian Councils Post Amalgamation September 2019 spence-consulting.com Spence Consulting 2 Analysis of Victorian Councils Post Amalgamation Analysis by Gavin Mahoney, September 2019 It’s been over 20 years since the historic Victorian Council amalgamations that saw the sacking of 1600 elected Councillors, the elimination of 210 Councils and the creation of 78 new Councils through an amalgamation process with each new entity being governed by State appointed Commissioners. The Borough of Queenscliffe went through the process unchanged and the Rural City of Benalla and the Shire of Mansfield after initially being amalgamated into the Shire of Delatite came into existence in 2002. A new City of Sunbury was proposed to be created from part of the City of Hume after the 2016 Council elections, but this was abandoned by the Victorian Government in October 2015. The amalgamation process and in particular the sacking of a democratically elected Council was referred to by some as revolutionary whilst regarded as a massacre by others. On the sacking of the Melbourne City Council, Cr Tim Costello, Mayor of St Kilda in 1993 said “ I personally think it’s a drastic and savage thing to sack a democratically elected Council. Before any such move is undertaken, there should be questions asked of what the real point of sacking them is”. Whilst Cr Liana Thompson Mayor of Port Melbourne at the time logically observed that “As an immutable principle, local government should be democratic like other forms of government and, therefore the State Government should not be able to dismiss any local Council without a ratepayers’ referendum.

  • The Places We Keep: the Heritage Studies of Victoria and Outcomes for Urban Planners
    The places we keep: the heritage studies of Victoria and outcomes for urban planners Robyn Joy Clinch Submitted in total fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Architecture & Planning) June 2012 Faculty of Architecture, Building & Planning The University of Melbourne Abstract The incentive for this thesis that resulted from an investigation into the history of my heritage house, developed from my professional interest in the planning controls on heritage places. This was further motivated by my desire to reinvent my career as an urban planner and to use my professional experience in management, marketing and information technology. As a result, the aim of this thesis was to investigate the relationship between the development of the heritage studies of Victoria and the outcome of those documents on planning decisions made by urban planners. The methods used included a simulated experience that established a methodology for the thesis. In addition, interviews were conducted with experts in the field that provided a context for understanding the influencing factors of when, where, by whom, with what, why and how the studies were conducted. These interviews also contributed to the understanding of how the historical research had been undertaken and used to establish the significance of places and how this translated into outcomes for urban planners. Case studies in the form of Tribunal determinations have been used to illustrate key outcomes for urban planners. A large amount of information including that relating to the historical background of the studies plus a collection of indicative content from over 400 heritage studies was traversed.

Lieberman, M.P. r, BY THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SANDRINGHAM PLANNING OF RETAIL CENTRES THURSDAY 16th &UGUST, 1979 Dear Mr. Minister, Thank you for the opportunity to put before you matters of serious concern to the Council of the City of Sandringh~m. The Council of the City of Sandringham assumed its town planning responsibilities in 1948 with the adoption of the Sandringham Planning Scheme for its industrial area. Since that time most of the municipality has become fully developed. The coastal residenti~l character of Sandringham largely reflecti the vision and the long term strategies of past Councils with recent development superimposed on the older coastal settlements without disturbing t~e character and identity of the city. In essence these strategies, through the Councils local government and coastal management roles, often through direct consultation with other public authoritiei, have resulted in:- - the provision of metropolitan Melbourne and the residents of Sandringham with a coastal reserve which" includes some of the finest beaches in the metropolitan area (mainly funded from Council revenues) not spoilt by inappropriate development. "" through the long term purchase of indiviaual allotments, a magnif- icent municipal golf-co~rse which is completemented by one of the te~ best privately owned golf courses iothe world. - throu~the operation of its planning controls development of a relatively attractive and significant industri~! - employment ar2il. preserva~jon of 5 acres of some of the last remaining indigenous heathland in the Metropolitan area.
