Deschamp Reserve - Clarification of Dog Off-Leash Boundary
The period for comment is now concluded.
Background
At its Meeting in October 2024, the City of Bayswater Council resolved to advertise its intention to alter the boundaries of the existing off-leash dog exercise area at Deschamp Reserve (see map).
This change will see the footpaths on the northern and eastern boundaries of the reserve removed from the dog-off leash area. A copy of the Council report can be accessed here.
What does this mean?
This change means that dogs will need to be kept on-lead when using the footpaths within this reserve.
Please note there is no intention to change to the Reserve's dog exercise area classification: dog walkers can continue to exercise their dogs at Deschamp Reserve off-leash, provided they are kept under effective control.
The requirements for dogs to be on-leash within twenty metres of the playground and within 5 metres of the carpark remain unchanged.
If you have any questions please contact the Rangers team at the City of Bayswater on 9272 0622 or email mail@bayswater.wa.gov.au
If you'd like to tell us about how you use Deschamp Reserve, or would like to provide any comments on this boundary clarification please use the comment form below.
What happens next?
After the completion of this notification period a final report was presented to Council at its April OCM where they formalised the boundary clarification. Outcomes of the community engagement are included in this report.
Signs and ground-marking will be installed at Deschamp Reserve; until these are installed regulations will remain unchanged.
