Edenhope Playspaces Master Plan

Council's consultation process has included:

• Two online community surveys, advertised on the WWSC website, social media, and in the West Wimmera Advocate.
• Several community consultation meetings.
• In-person consultation sessions at the Edenhope College and St Malachy's school involving student and staff.
• Consultation with Victoria Police and Ambulance Victoria
• Consultation with the Edenhope Playspace Master Plan Community Advisory Group  - consisting of volunteer stakeholders and advocates for the community of Edenhope. 
• Draft plans submitted to Council 

Council has completed the first stage of their planning and is now keen to hear from individuals and groups in our community.

The intended outcomes of seeking feedback will be to:

1. Receive feedback on design elements within the landscape plan
2. Receive feedback regarding the translation of design principles into practical outcomes – have we designed a public space that is inclusive, safe, welcoming and fun?

How long is the engagement process?

The draft plans were available for feedback from 10 June 2022 and closed on Sunday, 26 June 2022.

A drop in community consultation session was conducted for the community to have the chance to come along and ask questions and provide feedback. 

• When: Thursday, 23rd June at 3.45-4.45pm (drop in between these times)
• Where: Edenhope and District Community Centre 
• Contact Person: Sarah Ellis 13 99 72
  
  
  

Further community consultation will be conducted shortly, with further plans for Henley park and Lions Park being made available for comment.

Give feedback here

Feedback will be summarised and considered by Council.

Feedback might result in suggestions being accepted and changes made to the draft plan or suggestions being noted but not incorporated into the plan.

What happens next?

Further plans for Henley and Lions Park have been developed and there will be further community consulting coming soon. 

A report will be developed for Council summarising the process of:

• Developing the plans
• Obtaining feedback – and how the feedback informed planning decisions
  
  

The report will be submitted to Council seeking endorsement and if/when there are funding opportunities, the staged implementation of the plan.
