The Maroondah Environmentally Sustainable Design Policy for Council Buildings and Infrastructure and Environmentally Sustainable Design Policy Guidelines for Council Buildings and Infrastructure were adopted by Council in August 2017. The Policy outlines Council’s position on the ESD requirements to be achieved in the planning, design, construction, operation and management of Council buildings and surrounding assets.
