The hierarchy of parks within Melville is pocket, local, neighbourhood and district, and reflects state documentation/strategies.
This hierarchy is based on the number of anticipated visitors and the distance they are drawn from to attend this space:
- District parks - people will be drawn from over two kilometres
- Neighbourhood parks - residents from 800 metres
- Local parks - residents from approximately 400 metres
- Pocket parks are the incidental green spaces around the City.
The amount of facilities/infrastructure provided on each space reflects the size and use of the reserve and the distance required travelling and therefore the anticipated duration of time spent on-site.
The distribution of district, neighbourhood and local parks allows us to have a balanced level of the quality of space across the City.
Tony Zuvela Park is classified as a local park.
The playground is due for renewal, presenting an opportunity to explore what play equipment is preferred. Engaging with the community is key to building a sense of pride and ownership. Your input helps us create a playground that everyone can enjoy and feel connected to.
There are no further opportunities to provide feedback on this project.
Feedback received from the consultation determined what play equipment would replace the existing playground which is due for renewal.
