"The Oxley Creek Transformation Master Plan is an outstanding planning document that clearly exemplifies a large scale project. The judging panel felt that the project demonstrated originality, innovation, transferability and excellent engagement. This project acknowledges a clear distinction in areas that are included in the master plan which speaks to its transferability and innovation. Building on the hard work and commitment of waterway catchment groups, local councils, state and federal governments, this project has taken the master plan from just a plan, to a tangible waterway catchment revitalisation project. The clarity provided in the master plan on the project and implementation steps sets this project above and beyond expectations, with a 20-year delivery timeline and revenue generating delivery model. The judges were impressed with the transferability for this project, and the economic delivery model as a blueprint for waterway regeneration to ensure viable outcomes."
