G1.3 Development Area
The Meridian Park development area comprises approximately 400
hectares of industrial land to be jointly developed by LandCorp and
the City of Wanneroo. Meridian Park is situated off Flynn Drive within
the 1000 hectare Neerabup Industrial Area, north of Wanneroo. The
Meridian Park development is expected to meet the industrial land
needs of Perths rapidly growing North West Corridor for the next
20 years.

G3.2 How to use this document

These Design Requirements are divided into sections with a varying
level of detail to suit the readers requirements. The first section
prefixed with G, provides a high-level summary guide. The second Energy Efficiency

G3.3 Sustainability Initiatives

Amenity Waste
International and national initiatives acknowledge the issue of
CO2 emmissions and the impacts of climate change and a drying
climate. These initiatives set targets and actions to achieve overall
reductions in energy and water consumption and transport costs
through a variety of mechanisms, which align overall with the
objective of Sustainability. Achievement will not only ensure the Environmental Architecture and

facades, which are to be prominently glazed to satisfy the urban
design principles, must be appropriately shaded from solar heat
gain.
M2.2
External shading devices (overhangs, directional louvers, shutters
and awnings) are to be provided for all north, west and east facing
openings exposed to solar heat gain.
M2.3
Provide a suitable level of natural lighting to the floor level of all
buildings by incorporating strategically placed windows, light
shelves, light wells, awning reflectors etc into the overall design.
If this can not be demonstrated by the developer and determined

by the Estate Architect by casual review of the drawings and
good design practice, then a computer model may be requested
to confirm that at least 30% of the total floor area of all buildings
achieve a Daylight Factor (DF) of 2.0% as measured at 1.0m above
floor level measured under a uniform design sky.
M2.4
Hi level (clerestory) operable windows and vent openings are to be
provided within the building to ensure cross ventilation and heat
purging.
M2.5
Pale coloured roof and wall materials are to be used to reduce heat
gain in summer and reduce cooling energy levels and costs.

PARKING AND ACCESS M3
For safety and way-finding reasons public parking is to be located
within the public parking zone near the front (prime street) adjacent

1. Water Sensitive Landscape Design www.water.wa.gov.au
Use dry planting and low water usage plants where possible and
group plants with similar water requirements (hydrozoning) for
most efficient water usage for all species.
Mulch all planted areas with 75mm thick mulch to help the water
retention properties of the soil.
Slope paved areas and driveways away from buildings and
towards planting areas minimising concentration of water flow.
Incorporate opportunities for the recycling of grey and black
water from the development to be used for irrigation purposes.
Where available, property owners should use topsoil and mulch
from stockpiles from the estate.
SERVICE, STORAGE AND DISPLAY AREAS S9
SUPPORT INFORMATION S9.1 Objective
All aspects of a development that are visible from the street
or adjoining public areas, need to contribute positively to the
streetscape, urban design principles and estate aesthetics.

Screening should be used to conceal unsightly items and areas that
do not contribute to the streetscape.
Screens should be strategically placed to achieve this objective,

SIGNAGE S11
SUPPORT INFORMATION S11.1 Signage
Signage should be sensitively located so as not to detract from
the facade or streetscape and not be excessive in scale or
quantity. Materials and lighting of the sign should compliment the
architecture.
Often it is found that the graphic effectiveness of a sign is in the

space around text and its placement.
A discrete sign on the edge of a substrate can be more effective
than a huge sign that dominates the backing material, be it a wall
or building facade.
Signage to the blade walls should be treated with care and not
distract from the facade expression.
Creative solutions are encouraged, for instance the use of super-
graphics as suggestive signs (refer to reference project images)
used as effective background textures or images.
Materials within the buildings can be effective signage, for
example by facade material selections or corporate colours.
Signs could offer solar shading, or be part of the glazed facade
treatment.
Utilise durable and environmentally conscious materials and
technologies

MANAGEMENT S16
SUPPORT INFORMATION S16.1 Objective
To ensure that high quality built form, visual amenity, water

objectives are achieved and maintained.

High standards are required to achieve best practice principles and
corporate responsibility to environmental issues on all levels.
CONSTRUCTION
Site construction should be undertaken with minimal resource
waste to landfill by engaging a waste management company with
proven recycling strategies.
BUILDING MANAGEMENT
Incorporate appropriate environmental management and
pollution prevetion practices.
Encourage water use efficiency and reuse opportunities in the
ongoing management.
Businesses should provide on-site recycling bins and transfer
waste to the Mindarie Regional Council Facility.
Maximise energy efficiency and use of renewable energy.
Promote appropriate waste management practices including
waste avoidance, recovery and recycling.

on Worley Parsons EcoNomics Assessment, looked at the costs
