Proposed Naturescape at John Powell Reserve Consultation CLOSED
This consultation has now concluded.
The City of Mount Gambier wishes to thank all community members who contributed in providing feedback on the John Powell Reserve Naturescape.
All formal submissions made during the public consultation will be presented to Council for review.
Thank you again for your contribution.
The City of Mount Gambier have become increasingly aware of the health and wellbeing benefits that connecting with and exploring nature offers people, especially children, by way of learning and improved cognitive development.
Council have identified an opportunity to develop the John Powell Reserve into a naturescape, to both beautify the area and increase outdoor learning opportunities and engagement for local children and the community.
To develop the John Powell Reserve as a naturescape, Council propose building a small bridge and providing improved features such as climbing logs, rocks and stepping stones, a wooded area, waterfall, flower garden and wetlands planting, a sand island and signage amongst other things, to encourage improved local engagement with the site.
The City of Mount Gambier value your ideas and encourage you to provide feedback on this proposal.
This consultation has concluded.
