GREATER Shepparton City Council is inviting residents to take part in consultation for the revitalisation of KidsTown Adventure Playground. With ageing infrastructure and significant flood damage in 2022, Council is planning rehabilitation works and developing a new Master Plan for the beloved site.
At the August Council Meeting, Council committed to a comprehensive community engagement process to shape the Master Plan and allocated $650,000 in the 2025/26 financial year to deliver works in collaboration with key stakeholders.
Phase one of the engagement process runs until October 31 and will give residents the chance to share their views on the remediation process and the timing of the removal of non-compliant equipment, helping project teams plan with community feedback in mind.
Consultation activities include on-site information sessions at KidsTown, along with online feedback opportunities through Council’s Shaping Greater Shepp website.
The second of two drop-in information sessions will be held Thursday, October 2, between 4pm and 6pm at KidsTown.
Council encourages everyone, including both past and future users of KidsTown, to get involved and help shape a destination that reflects the values and needs of the Greater Shepparton community.
Phase Two will include pop-up information sessions and targeted workshops with schools and community groups.
