Open Space Planning and Park Master Planning

Adequate open space is a critical infrastructural element of any community. We believe that when well designed, accessible and usable networks of open spaces can be highly valued community resources that enable people to interact with each other and engage with natural systems. Very often the benefits are reflected in improved community stability, reduced antisocial behaviour, improved land values and healthier natural systems. Rigorous up-front planning for open space resources provides an important framework for managing open space requirements as communities change and grow.
