Have your say on the Wantirna Reserve Masterplan

Wantirna Reserve is a valued asset for the local community, and to ensure the council meet current and future community needs, they are looking to develop a Masterplan to upgrade the reserve.

The reserve is popular with the local community for informal use and is also home to several local clubs and groups, including the Wantirna Tennis Club, Knox Hockey Club, 2nd Wantirna Scout Group, Australian Jazz Museum and Knox Athletics – cross country.

Development of the Masterplan began in 2017/18, however, was put on hold while the tennis and hockey improvements were completed.

The proposed enhancements will include new and improved paths, upgraded playground and park space – including a new dog park, new car parks – including upgrades to existing car spaces, and a refurbished pavilion.

Your input will help us refine the plan and further improve the park for the community now – and for future use.

Too have your say on the draft masterplan, leave your feedback on council’s ‘Have your Say’ website or attend one of the in-person drop-in sessions held at the reserve’s pavilion on Wednesday 15 November, from 5.30pm to 6.30pm or Saturday 18 November, from 10.30am to 11:30am.

Feedback closes 24 November 2023.
