Tahmoor Park - Draft Plan of Management

Tahmoor Park is an important community open space, used for educational, environmental, and recreational purposes.

Council facilitates native planting in partnership with WIRES and local wildlife carers, which they use as a food bank for wildlife in care; holding community working bees to plant and weed the site. Currently, Council also undertakes maintenance on the site, although access is single-lane and weather dependent.

Council has developed a draft Plan of Management for the park, which

  • Proposes the dedication of a small strip of community land as a public road to provide a safe all-weather stabilised accessway
  • More broadly confirms Tahmoor Park is to remain Community land for public use, categorising it as 'Park' land.

We are inviting feedback about the draft Plan of Management for Tahmoor Park, and whether you agree or not with it being categorised as 'Park' land.


An Opportunity

With stabilised access to the park, we would then have a unique opportunity to enhance the park for the community. After a Plan of Management is adopted, we would then anticipate conducting further community consultation about future options for Tahmoor Park. You can let us know if you would like to participate in this later phase of engagement by completing the feedback form below.
