A concept design for the northern end of Fred Gration Reserve in Coronet Bay has been developed and Bass Coast Shire Council would like to hear what you think.
In 2023, a Master Plan was developed for this much-loved Reserve in consultation with the community and this design follows on from the Plan. The concept features a barbeque, shelter and drinking fountain, new playspace, multi-use court, accessible pathways and parking, seating, landscaping and shade trees, improved drainage, and a shelter and shed in the community garden.
Bass Coast Mayor Cr Rochelle Halstead was excited to see the designs for the Reserve.
"With so many families moving to the area, I'm so excited to see plans for this Reserve that include a bigger and better playspace and room for ball sports but also a gathering spot for picnics and barbeques where families and friends can spend time together," Cr Halstead said.
"While these plans are very exciting, we want to hear from you to see if we've got it right. So let us know through this consultation what you like, what you love and also what might need changing or something we might've missed."
Consultation is now open, and you can have your say in-person or online.
In-person sessions will be held at the Reserve which is located at 39A Gellibrand Street / Bantering Bay Road, Coronet Bay on Monday, 14 April from:
3:00pm to 4:00pm
5:00pm to 6:00pm
You can view all the plans online and there's also two surveys to complete; one for young people aged under 18 and one for adults - also known as the young at heart! You can find all the details at engage.basscoast.vic.gov.au/cbreserve.
Consultation is open until Sunday, 4 May 2025.
