Further information

A note from your local councillorThis is a rare opportunity to help design your new park. Acquired only recently, this parkland has exceptional views, natural areas and great open space; so it has lots of potential to be a great place for families, events and activities. So what do you think? Where should the pathways and playground be? Should it have a dog off leash area? What about a community garden area? Come along and have your say and help add another great park for our Glass House Country communities. See you there!
