Land development - Design

Land development projects invariably require the construction of civil infrastructure and the preparation of construction drawings.

Any design must be in accordance with an applicable Functional Layout Plan (FLP) and the relevant Planning permit conditions.

Civil Infrastructure Design

The provision of any civil infrastructure within the City of Greater Geelong must be in accordance with the general principles of the Sustainable Communities - Infrastructure Development Guidelines.  We have adopted the Infrastructure Design Manual (IDM) and accompanying Standard Drawings as our civil engineering detailed design standard.

IDM checklists D2 and D3 (or as amended) are to be attached to drawings submitted for approval.

Land development design consultants also need to be aware of the City of Greater Geelong's Design Notes provide additional design advice and guidance specific to the Geelong region.  Designs must incorporate these provisions where relevant.
