Public Open Space Strategies

At the June 2008 Council Meeting the Public Open Space Strategy was formally adopted. The Open Space Strategy is the 'umbrella' document which will provide a comprehensive framework for the provision, role, use, development, management and maintenance of public open spaces it the City of Devonport. It is intrinsically linked to the already adopted Guidelines for the Planning, Design & Construction of Public Open Space 2007and Public Open Space Standards & Technical Notes 2007.

The strategy is primarily concerned with passive and informal active use of public open space. The objective is to provide for the leisure needs of the community in harmony with the enhancement of the fundamental environmental and cultural qualities of open space resources.
