Parks Victoria, the Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning (DELWP), and the Haining Farm Implementation Working Group are holding a drop-in information session on Saturday, 8 September, to provide for community input into future improvements planned for Haining Farm.
The session will provide updates on the current works and the opportunity to provide feedback on detailed designs for proposed future.
There will also be tours of the works that are currently underway to construct wetlands in the north-west of the farm.
Parks Victoria Executive Director Melbourne, Craig Stubbings, encouraged people to have a say.
“This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to create a new public space and it’s important that the community helps to shape the future of Haining Farm for the long-term benefit of the local community and future generations,” he said.
“We would like to encourage the community to make the most of the opportunity and get involved and let us know your thoughts on visitor facilities, the Woodland buffer and also any community ideas about the types of community activities in the reserve longer term.”
The drop in session will be from 2pm to 4pm on Saturday, 8 September at Haining Farm, Don Road, Don Valley. Those unable to attend can view the concept plans and provide feedback online until the submission period closes on the 14 September, 2018.
The Haining Farm Concept Plan was released by DELWP and Parks Victoria in September 2017.
