• Build group housing to support more residents at a lower cost per person  ​

 

• Use established frameworks such as Permaculture, to reduce the carbon footprint of houses and to make the best use of the land

​

• Moderate the temperature across Marys Mount by joining-up water bodies and by increasing the level of moisture in the ground through improving healthy soil  

 

• Run-O-Waters - Sustainable Gardens and Houses

​​​​​

• This is a whole of suburb project to take advantage of significant water resources to hydrate the soil so as to moderate temperatures across the area. The increased soil health amd moisture will support more extensive planting of native flora that will attract more fauna.

​

• A very successful example of one of such a project can be found at166 Ducks Lane, that was a very successful joint venture between the landowners and OSGM. See this page.

​

• It is proposed to put aside an area at Run-O-Waters for First Nations use as an important part of the next phase. which is to rehydrate and regenerate the whole suburb.   ​
