Better Apartments For Victoria

The Property Council welcomes the State Government’s Better Apartments Design Standards.Property Council Victorian Executive Director, Sally Capp said these Standards represent good policy that meets the Government’s objectives and set an industry benchmark to ensure quality for the community.“On balance, this is a workable policy that the Government is to be commended on. Whilst we welcome the Standards, there are still some measures that are too prescriptive such as the minimum balcony requirements.” said Ms Capp.The Property Council worked closely with the Government to ensure good design, quality, and affordability were equally achieved in the Standards.
