Update: Read our Engagement Report

Thank you to everyone who provided feedback in November/December 2023 about the draft Concept Plan for Sol Green Reserve. We heard from approximately 40 community members in person, via our online survey, and also via submissions. Most of the people we heard from lived in South Melbourne and were regular users of the park.

We have now reviewed all of your feedback and created a report to inform the final design for the reserve. You can read the report here.
