Benefits stem from having a micro-managed legislation system for the land.
Environmental management
Environmental management is a key driver in the implementation of community title. Examples of environmental management initiatives that may be operated through a community management structure include –
- Water management systems
- Swale drains and storm water retention basins
- Grey water treatment
- Electricity generation through wind and sun
- Community gardens
- Environmental management plans for areas of key environmental sensitivity (e.g. Koala/ and nature animal habitats, rare and protected three species).
The model for these initiatives is –
- They may require infrastructure for their operation
- The infrastructure is shared across a number of lots, and is not contained solely within one owner’s piece of land.
- They may require specialized knowledge in order to implement and manage them.
- There is a sharing of resources and efforts between the residents that participate.
Without people coming together through community management, the model does not work. An example is a rainwater collection system, where the rainwater is stored centrally, and then used by the community to water the community fruit garden or top up the community pool.
