Summary "Public land in metropolitan Melbourne supports the lifestyles of its residents. The well known cultural and historic buildings, the natural environments of national and state parks on the urban fringes, and the bayside beaches make Melbourne a great city to live in. In addition the services and utilities on public land that support everyday life - the schools, roads, railways, local parks, hospitals, water catchments and sewage treatment plants - all contribute to Melbourne's liveability. VEAC has comprehensively mapped all public land across the investigation area identifying its ownership (i.e. whether it is Crown land, or owned by a department or other government agency) and its primary use. This is the first time that this information has been compiled for urban Melbourne. This mapping and the database supporting it will be valuable information for government as it develops its new metropolitan strategy for Melbourne" --p. 1
