Thank you for your patience!
During stage one of community engagement, the community provided Council with some great feedback and direction for the future of the Merri Creek Parklands from Coburg North to Fawkner. Strengthening the natural values was identified as a key priority but so is improving community connections to the parklands and nature.
The proposed works reflect the community and key stakeholder requests to protect and enhance the natural values of this important waterway. Some basic park improvements are also proposed including park and picnic facilities, accessible paths, public toilets, and new nature-based play spaces.
Consultation closes 5pm, Friday 20 January 2023.
