Greater Shepparton City Council advises residents that due to the persistent rain affecting the region certain parks and reserves have been unable to be maintained.
Greater Shepparton City Council Director Infrastructure Steve Bowmaker said “Council understands that the grass in some parks may be long and I advise residents to please be patient and avoid driving over any community parks, in an effort to not damage the reserves.
“Once the areas dry out, mowing will commence, he said.”
For any enquiries please contact Council via here.
