Compliance with other design guidelines
A range of state/territory, precinct, and site-specific design guidelines apply to Housing Choices projects across various jurisdictions. Compliance with such design guidelines may be required for a range of reasons, such as a condition of funding, or as a planning requirement. Whilst such design documents are generally prepared by others, it is important that Housing Choices projects comply with the design guidelines detailed in this document. The project team is responsible for making itself aware of any required compliances from the earliest stages of design. Below is a list of some current and commonly required state-based design guidelines, but this is by no means an exhaustive list. It is important to discuss the specific requirements of a given project with the nominated Housing Choices development or project manager to gain a shared understanding of all relevant design guidelines to which the project must comply.
