Collective or mass housing is defined primarily by quantity and it acquires its spatial
quality through grouping. This type of dwelling houses large numbers of people with
varying degrees of housing quality. Within it the housing units are closely grouped,
according to rules of horizontal or vertical assemblage, generating spaces with public,
semi-public or private character in which certain social practices of housing unfold.

Benchmarks
Balance
Provide a variety of open spaces to serve a range of different active and

passive recreational roles to meet the diversity of community needs.
Access
Provide for safe and convenient access to open spaces within and
between communities, and where possible co-locate open spaces with
shops, schools and other community facilities to reduce parking and
minimise walking distances.
Preservation
Use open space to protect and enhance the environmental, cultural and
heritage values of an area
Place Making
Locate open spaces to build on the special attributes of an area for longterm public amenity and sense of place; for example an open-space network
may include hill tops, river frontage, mature trees, places with panoramic
views, rocky outcrops and remnant vegetation.
Integration
Connect open space as part of a municipal network and link into the
regional open space system where possible.
Safety
Design and maintain open spaces to ensure that public safety is

commensurate to the level of use and targeted user groups.
Sustainability
Design, development and management of open space should respond to

environmental values and conditions, community aspirations and economic
considerations and must remain viable in the long term.
Equity
Provide equitable access to parks and open spaces to ensure that the type,
location and quality of the infrastructure are evenly spread.
Waterwise
Provide areas within the open-space network sufficient to detain and cleanse
stormwater runoff and avoid impacting sensitive areas.
