Consultation closed on Monday 28 April.
Project update
In April 2025, we consulted with the local community on our draft design for a Nature Park at Swallow Reserve in Dingley Village. Thank you to everyone who took the time to provide feedback!
We heard your concerns and have adjusted the design to support your needs. Vegetation will be reduced to allow more lawn area to support informal ball play on site.
The final design includes:
Native trees
Native low shrub and grass planting
Native shrub planting along perimeter
Boulder seating under the existing Swamp Gum
Granitic gravel path
Open lawn space
Construction
The works will be delivered in two stages. Works on the new path and seating area will commence in late May 2025, plantings will commence once path works are complete.
We look forward to delivering this exciting project for the local community!
As part of this, we are excited to introduce a new initiative – a Nature Park at Swallow Reserve in Dingley Village!
The draft design for the Nature Park includes the planting of 22 new trees and over 2,000 plants, all chosen to enhance tree coverage and support local habitats within the reserve.
