Catalina is delivered by the Catalina Regional Council, formed by seven local governments to implement the development, and project managed by Satterley.  The early vision to create a more sustainable, more liveable community is being successfully delivered.

A strong focus on ecosystems led to the rehabilitation of an 11.5 hectare Biodiversity Conservation Area which provides a significant green link, including feeding habitat for Carnaby’s Black Cockatoo.  Habitat trees are also retained in road reserves and public open space.  A successful plant relocation, seed collection and fauna relocation program has been implemented, with over 550 grass trees relocated and a contribution to the seed bank that can equate to over 2 million plants.

A mandatory builders’ waste program saw well over 90% of waste by weight collected on site and recovered at a start-of-the-art facility, with the program at Catalina used as a case study for best practice waste management in WA.

Catalina, through careful design and energy and water efficiency will reduce living costs for residents and has a strong focus on community engagement and education.

As the largest master planned project within the Chisholm release area, Waterford is set on 251 hectares and will deliver 1,484 homes upon completion. The duality of the region attracts a diverse purchaser-base, all drawn in by the abundance of established amenities. Accessibility and convenience within Chisholm will be further enhanced by the proposed Chisholm Plaza by Revelop and the planned community centre, delivering high-quality retail outlets and meeting spaces within the Waterford address.

Already home to several educational centres, once complete Waterford will have four schools, offering options for pre-school right through to high school. The community will also include a range of sports precincts – netball courts, a cricket pitch, tennis courts – as well as seven parks, and seven kilometres of bike and walking trails. Over a quarter of homes at Waterford front untouched greenspaces or blue spaces which provides sanctuaries for the local flora and fauna.

While residents can enjoy the tranquillity of regional living, Waterford is still just a short 30-minutes from the Newcastle metropolitan area. Access to the M1 to Sydney is only a 10-minute drive away, linking residents to the country’s most popular and culturally renowned city in less than 2-hours.

Sustainability practices include using materials and construction methods with lower environmental impacts, implementing innovative waste reduction and water saving plans; as well as significant investment in protecting and enhancing the local natural ecosystems. Orana will offer an impressive range of natural areas, with 42 hectares of parks and waterways, six local parks, two recreation reserves and three wetlands planned for the community. Balcon, the talented development team behind Orana, have also invested in the Urban Forest Project – a public initiative that focuses on increasing Melbourne’s canopy cover. With this, an extensive number of native and exotic trees will be planted at Orana, encouraging the City of Casey’s rich biodiversity to continue to thrive.

Sustainability underpins the vision for Moonee Valley Park. Approximately half of the site is dedicated to new botanical green spaces, supporting biodiversity and enhancing wellbeing through everyday immersion in nature. The neighbourhood is designed to prioritise pedestrians, with essential amenities located within walking distance and recreational spaces integrated throughout.

Environmental performance is embedded across the precinct. Water-efficient fixtures rated up to five stars are included in all residences, while rainwater harvesting systems capture roof runoff for landscape irrigation, reducing potable water consumption. Solar panels installed on several rooftops help offset greenhouse gas emissions from common areas. Homes and communal spaces feature energy-efficient LED lighting, thermally efficient building design, and high-performance reverse-cycle heating and cooling systems to minimise energy use.

A comprehensive waste management strategy supports construction-phase sustainability, targeting the recycling of 80% of all waste generated on site.

Moonee Valley Park was first certified under EnviroDevelopment in 2019. Its continued commitment to sustainability and innovation has now been recognised through EnviroDevelopment Excellence — acknowledging the project’s leadership in delivering a greener, more resilient community.

Casuarina Beach is the ultimate in premium beachside living. From the ocean to the valley, this exclusive masterplanned community adjoins some of the most pristine beaches on the North Coast of NSW, and is surrounded with a variety of cafés, award-winning restaurants, local shopping centres, reputable schools and childcare services. Particular consideration was given to the sensitive setting during the planning and design phase of the estate, to ensure a seamless transition between the town centre and the adjoining coastal foreshore areas. This has been achieved through establishing green buffer zones and open space areas to the north and the east, which provide a link to the existing established vegetation of the foreshore areas adjoining the eastern boundary of the site.

Vivente has been designed to maximise the unique attributes of its surroundings. This has been achieved through creating 3.9 hectares of central parkland that features at the heart of the estate. The central parkland has been designed to be an active community focal point, to encourage neighbouring residents to meet. Boardwalks are also a key asset of the public open space and have been provided to encourage walking and community engagement.

Species planted within public open space or streetscapes are also of local provenance with approximately half being suited to Carnaby’s Black Cockatoo and other birds foraging species.

Healthy active living is encouraged throughout the estate and supported via the public open space design and infrastructure. With nearly four hectares of connected public open space designed to respect the natural topography. Notable features include:

• A “Jacob’s Ladder” style challenge, known as the Hammond Park Climb
• The Scramble, is one of the first Parkour courses in Western Australia designed to the new Australian Parkour Standards
• The Cruise, completed in June 2022, is a 1.49-kilometre at-grade walking and running track.

These parks address the need for quality recreational space, particularly in response to contemporary dwellings having less active private open space when compared to traditional inner Perth suburbs. The POS also optimises community creation and activity through valued, well-used parkland. Vivente’s leadership is also reflected in its achievement of EnviroDevelopment accreditation and the Heart Foundation’s Healthy Active by Design accolade.
