Why this Guide exists

A practical method for managing living infrastructure.

Trees, wetlands, raingardens, remnant bushland, coastal assets, green roofs and living systems deliver important community and environmental services. Yet many councils still lack a clear method for recording, planning, costing and funding these assets.

The Practice Guide provides a practical how-to pathway for preparing GI AMPs. It adapts established asset management principles used for grey infrastructure, but modifies them for living, adaptive and multifunctional assets whose service potential depends on ecology, climate, maintenance, soil, water and community value.
