Mahogany Reserve, Morley

Consultation has concluded

Background

Mahogany Reserve is located on Mahogany Road and Hakea Court in Morley. The City plans to redevelop this reserve, including replacing the play equipment, as it is at the end of its useful life. The park redevelopment is funded by the Australian Government's Local Roads and Community Infrastructure Program.

The aim of the park redevelopment is to improve the overall amenity of the park, through landscaping and new play equipment to facilitate passive and recreational use by all residents and park users.

Guided by the City's Parks and Play Space Classification Hierarchy, an indicative concept plan for the redevelopment of the park has been developed. Both the concept plan and the classification hierarchy are available to view in the Document Library.

Community Input

The City sought feedback from the community on a concept design, which we considered alongside technical advice, budget allocations and our hierarchy classification.

As part of the redevelopment the existing play equipment was renewed. To assist with the design for the new play space the City asked the community to provide input on how they use the park, and what they would like to see incorporated in the design. To find out more about the City's Play space Strategy please see the document library.

In line with community preference at least 50% of the natural turf space was retained. Play equipment includes a basket swing, fort climbing structure, timber steppers and nature/imaginative play within a mulched softfall. A ping pong table structure is also  within the play space. Bird boxes and native planting is also included within the design.

Park concept design

Mahogany Reserve is classified as a Local park, and as such, the City has provided accessible pathways, park furniture and play space for local residents to enjoy, within walking distance of their house.

Local tree species have be planted throughout the reserve to provide natural shade cover. The Parks and Gardens team has hydro-zoned some areas of the park, as indicated on the concept plan. To find out more about the types of plants have been planted in Mahogany Reserve, refer to the Zone 1 Plant Palette within the City's Garden and Planting Guideline in the Document Library.

The engagement results have been analysed and a report is available to view in the Document Library. Results informed the final concept plan, which is also available to view in the Document Library.

How can I get involved?

The community engagement period for this project has now closed. Thank you to everyone who contributed feedback on the concept plans.

What's next?

The Mahogany Reserve redevelopment is complete.
