Strategic Planning

Our planning perspective helps clients to maximise the long term social and physical value presented by every site.
We work with local and state government, developers, schools and land managers on strategic and master planning, focusing especially on parks and public open space.

Broad-scale Strategic Plans and Site Master Plans 

  • Strategic developments such as the Greenlink project in Frankston which established ecological, design, artistic, play and recreation links, setting a framework for more detailed design.
  • Master plans for whole parks, sites and regions, school grounds or distinctprecincts, addressing landscape, amenity and circulation, play and recreation, planting, and specialist issues such as bike paths, revegetation, and animal management. 
  • Examples include a master plan for a lake side recreation space at Sovereign Hill, Ballarat  where school and family groups take a break within a heritage setting; and Elsternwick Park where Jeavons worked with @leisure planners on a master plan addressing the issues of children’s play, recreation and dog on and off leash zones

Play Space Strategies
 
Jeavons have an unmatched core of expertise in strategic thinking on open space and play space development, promoting a vision for children, youth and families while remaining pragmatic and cost effective.
We mesh quality play space provision and decision making at a policy level, with the practicalities of asset management, budgeting, maintenance, replacement and procurement.

Recent examples include:
  • Playspace Development Strategy for the City of Kingston,
  • A strategy for the ACT government on Accessible and Inclusive Play opportunities 
  • Playspace Development Strategy for City of Darebin that also addressed  play facilities across early childhood centres managed by Council
