Opportunity for

Great location for
gateway to Council
area
Want to be
recognised for
Walkerville
Explore the
benefits of
demolishing the
adjacent house as
it could add an
extra space that
could be
incorporated into
the overall
development x2
Parklands
community area
Good lighting (for
security and effect
as a landmark) x4
No dog
park
Graffiti –
a need to
consider
antigraffiti
measures
Protect trees on
boundary to adjoining
houses. This helps
landscapers in providing a
sound and visual buffer
Maximise the open space
on the site
Landscaping with tall
trees
Incorporate landscaping
that can be changed with
different themes each
year
The contracted landscape
architect is very inventive
and progressive in design
ideas. We should not ‘tie
his hands’ too much
Allowing existing trees
around the corner
following the road to
have to be retained as
they may not allow best
design solutions as far
as building and
associated landscaping
Building and landscape should be
visible to high speed passersby and
also a place to walk past slowly and
experience
Some of the building visible but
behind a pictorial gateway wall
Artistic name of Walkerville and
logo type on the wall
Site to complement the
surrounding buildings so it looks
like it belongs/building sympathetic
to the heritage of the area but is
not a reproduction x5
Include as many solar panels and
environmentally sustainable
features as possible x4
Native Plants x2 Should allow for expansion within
the original building for possible
expansion‐ maybe for one pump
Vegetation to attract
birds
Blend in with landscape
surrounding the
site/corner
Depending on the required height
of the building consider depressing
it partially. This may assist in
reducing noise/vibration x2
Wonderful opportunity for a
modern approach to the site. I am
sick of the talk of “historic town of
Walkerville” lets be a bit bold. May
All the surrounding buildings
(hotel, shop, offices) are
more than ugly
Consideration for
adjacent properties
Consider
neighbours directly
on the boundary
and double glaze
windows (if
required)
Positioning of air
conditioning away
from neighbours
Improve
neighbours fencing
with
height/noise/mater
ials
A place where people can
sit and ponder
Safe access by required
vehicles
We need bold signage as
the main entry to
Walkerville
Wall that reflects what
Walkerville is about
pictorially (i.e. family/
community/ heritage/
progress/ business/
schools/ flora & fauna
with lighting
Park Tce entrance for cars
Like to open the site at
the curved corner
Want a sport/ recreation
facility eg basketball ring
½ court or full court
Gateway statement‐ ‘you
are now entering a

established, primarily
Site for
large scale
picnic
No
