Council releases the Draft Princess Park Future Directions Plan for public exhibition

The Draft Princess Park Future Directions Plan and Landscape Masterplan have been developed to provide a vision for the area and its facilities which supports and guides decisions on the future use, development, management and maintenance of the area.

Princess Park neighbours the Shepparton central business district and provides a unique and picturesque parcel of open space for the local community. Its location alongside the Goulburn River provides a popular area for walking and informal recreation pursuits, while its sporting infrastructure plays an important role in meeting the organised sporting needs of the Greater Shepparton community.

Consultation has taken place with key stakeholders in developing the Draft Future Directions Plan and Landscape Masterplan. The stakeholders consulted have included the Princess Park user groups, Council officers, Goulburn Broken Catchment Management Authority and peak sporting associations.

Greater Shepparton City Council Director Infrastructure Phil Hoare said “The Draft Plan is now being provided to the broader community for review and feedback. Council encourages residents to review the draft documents and provide feedback. Those who wish to do so can find the survey on Council’s website here and hard copies are available on display at Council’s Welsford Street office. Feedback is welcomed until 14 November.”
