Our Vision for a Sustainable Aldinga Development
The state government’s release of 60 hectares of land in Aldinga has presented an unprecedented opportunity to set a new benchmark for sustainable development in Australia.
We share our community's passion to see sustainable and climate-resilient developments that offer a diverse range of innovative, affordable, energy-efficient homes that consider the environment while supporting a fantastic lifestyle. This is why we've created a detailed vision for the Aldinga development that can serve as a model across the state and the nation.
We are seeking the following sustainable outcomes for the development:
- commitment to environmentally sustainable design principles
- industry leading Green Star Communities rating targeting 6-Stars
- housing which meets the new Green Star for Homes standard OR minimum 8-star NatHERS rating
- low carbon house design and build
- zero/low waste, recycled materials, circular economy
- integration of renewable energy achieving net-zero energy use
- rainwater capture and use of recycled water
- water sensitive urban design (WSUD)
- trees and urban greening on private and public land
- functional open green spaces for community wellbeing and recreation
- biodiversity and habitat creation
- a highly walkable suburb with convenient access to public transport and connections to the Aldinga township and local schools
- diverse housing choice that delivers both high-end and affordable living
- community engagement in the planning process
- development and urban design that complements the rural coastal landscape and sensitive environmental surrounds
- training and capacity building in sustainable design and construction for developers, builders and homebuyers
- use of local businesses and service providers.
