The playground equipment within Merrilee Reserve has reached the end of its lifespan and is due for renewal.

A modest budget has been allocated to replace the existing play equipment and create a soft fall area to comply with current Australian Standards. However, there is an option to use these funds for a different type of recreational use.

As there are other playgrounds nearby, we could think about using Merilee Reserve for a different type of recreation (see our Open Space and Outdoor Recreation Strategy and Action Plan).

We want to know if there is significant demand for a change of use (e.g. nature play or picnic table & shelter, etc.), or if we should renew the playground.
