Jakobsons Reserve Play Space Renewal

Consultation has concluded

BACKGROUND 

Jakobsons Reserve is a Local Park located in Morley. As part of the City's ongoing commitment to maintaining and improving local parks, the existing play equipment will be replaced in early 2026. The renewal will create a more welcoming, inclusive and engaging play space that encourages community connection and active outdoor play.


HOW WILL THE PLAY SPACE BE RENEWED?

  • New play equipment designed for a variety of ages and abilities.
  • Include a connecting pathway to improve accessibility (completed December 2025).
  • Provide a new accessible picnic table, enhancing opportunities for families and community gatherings (completed December 2025).

The indicative concept plan is now available and ready to be viewed in the Document Library.

COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT

Community input has been vital in shaping the design. The engagement period is now closed, and we thank everyone who participated through the online page and survey.

The community engagement summary report is available in the Document Library.

WHAT'S NEXT?

The play equipment renewal will occur in late-January to February 2026, with updates provided as the project progresses.
