Master Plans - Davis Park, Dimboola Recreation Reserve and Jeparit Tennis Court, Caravan Park and Riverbank Precinct

Hindmarsh Shire Council has commenced the development of three strategic sport and recreation master plans for each of the following locations:

• Dimboola Recreation Reserve

• Davis Park, Nhill

• Jeparit Tennis Courts, Caravan Park and Riverbank Precinct

The master plans will establish a clear vision and direction for future development and activation of each reserve to achieve increased physical activity participation outcomes. Once adopted, the master plans will become the blueprint for their ongoing development ensuring maximum benefit for the community and will be important advocacy documents to attract external funding.

Sports and recreation planning company, Simon Leisure Consulting, has been engaged to lead the development of the three strategic sport and recreation master plans.

Council is now encouraging residents to become involved in the planning for each reserve master plan. We would like to know how people use the reserves and what they would like to see in them.

We invite you to fill out the online survey for the reserve(s) most important to you. If you have any issues filling out this survey, please email us via the contact details provided on this page, and we'd be very happy to assist you.

This survey includes a couple of questions about you, your use of the reserve(s), and what improvements you would like to see at the reserve(s).

We expect this survey will take you 5 - 10 minutes to complete.

Most questions are mandatory unless otherwise specified.

Providing your email address is not mandatory but will enable us to communicate with you in relation to your submission and keep you updated on the master plans as they progress. Any private information will be collected and stored securely in accordance with Council's Privacy Policy.
