Integrated Facility Planning Symposium City of Yarra 2 September 2014

Municipal Strategic Statement (MSS)

“optimise access to community infrastructure (eg. health, education, social, leisure and cultural facilities), suited to the local community’s needs in different locations”

STRATEGIES

• Encourage the concentration of State Government services within the Coburg, Brunswick and Glenroy Activity Centres.
• Encourage the development of a major health facility and associated infrastructure in the Coburg Principal Activity Centre.
• Reinforce the existing cultural, entertainment and educational focus of the ‘Brunswick Civic & Cultural Precinct’ centred on the Brunswick Town Hall.
• Support the location of community infrastructure within the Coburg, Brunswick and Glenroy Activity Centres and within Neighbourhood Activity

Centres.

• Ensure the design of community facilities allows for multi-purpose use by different groups

with the flexibility to adapt to changing needs over time.

• Encourage the development of master plans for major community facilities, such as hospitals, schools and large community facilities, to provide for

planned expansion and management of impacts on adjoining areas.

• Ensure the design and location of community infrastructure contributes to a local sense of place and opportunities for social connections.
• Ensure the provision of community infrastructure is based on sound supporting evidence of

community need and benefit.

Consider the community benefit of retaining land in a public use zone for community use prior to supporting any rezoning proposal.

IMPLEMENTATION

• Apply the Development Contribution Plan Overlay (DCPO) to collect development contributions towards community infrastructure, as appropriate.
• Integrate community infrastructure planning with activity centre planning.
• Apply the Moreland Community Infrastructure Framework and associated principles as appropriate.
• Apply the DPO or IPO to implement adopted master plans.

BUILDING ASSET MANAGEMENT PLAN

Community Infrastructure Framework

A process to assess existing Council facilities and plan for provision of

future facilities using common criteria, demographic forecasts and benchmarks

CAPITAL WORKS UPGRADE, EXTENSION, MAINTENANCE ASSESSING EXISTING FACILITIES BUSINESS CASES FOR NEW PROJECTS PLAN FOR NEW FACILITIES EVIDENCE OF NEED FOR NEW FACILITIES Stage 1 Stage 2

• 1. an interactive

database of Council building assets

• 2. suburb-based

community needs assessments

INFORMING:

• Capital budget
• Asset Mgt Planning
• Structure plans
• Service Planning
• Site/precinct plans

Community Infrastructure Framework tools

Community needs / investment priorities informed by:

• pop/n benchmarks
• Assessment scores of

functionality & accessibility Presented as a new community facilities data layer in GIS Linked to assessments of accessibility and functionality for each facility

To be on the map is to be ON THE AGENDA

Aged & Disability Aquatic & Leisure Arts & Culture Children’s Services Civic /community halls Library Services Maternal & Child Health Sport & recreation Youth Services Neighbourhood houses Open Space (separate GIS layer) 26 facility types are coded into GIS mapping We worked closely with planners and managers of services in:

maternal & child health centre long day care playgroup kindergarten

Brunswick’s Fleming Park Master Plan is one of several site/precinct projects informed by Community Infrastructure Framework analysis

From: Northern Horizons – 50 Year Infrastructure for Melbourne’s North (Arup 2013)

NORTHERN HORIZONS: regional benchmarks a starting point for finer grained local analysis

ACCESSIBILITY Proximity to public transport Proximity to activity centres Proximity to other community facilities FUNCTIONALITY Capacity to meet current and projected needs (spatial

• r population measures)

Pattern of use Daytime, evening, weekend Frequency Fitness for purpose meets (or constrains) service requirements 1 = Good 3 = Satisfactory 5 = Poor Scores are aggregated for integration with BOP scores to inform CAPEX
