Manningham Council is inviting feedback on parking in Manningham to help inform a review of its Parking Management Policy.
The policy guides the selection of on-street and public parking restrictions to help manage parking and traffic flow around Manningham.
This includes parking on local streets, around schools and reserves, near public transport and at local shopping strips.
Manningham Mayor Cr Andrew Conlon said the Parking Management Policy helps to manage on-street parking, including parking restrictions.
“We know there is increasing demand for on-street parking and we’re reviewing our policy to ensure it continues to meet the needs of the local area and our community,” Cr Conlon said.
“Car parking is important to everyone who lives and drives around Manningham – it’s a shared community asset. I encourage everyone to get involved by having their say as part of the Parking Management Policy review.”

The upgraded park and land along the Yarra River in Warrandyte, locally known as Lions Park, will be given an official Woi-wurrung name to reflect the language, culture and heritage of the local Wurundjeri Woi-wurrung people.
Following earlier consultation with key stakeholders, last week Manningham Council met with the Warrandyte Lions Club and Masterplan Community Reference Group, who showed support to adopt a Woi-wurrung name for the park.
Manningham Mayor Cr Andrew Conlon said Council’s commitment to reconciliation is underpinned by respect for the rich and complex nature of the Wurundjeri Woi-wurrung culture and heritage and thanked the Warrandyte Lions Club for taking up this important opportunity in reconciliation.
“While Council has committed to creating equity, equality and building relationships, and is close to finalising our Reconciliation Action Plan, reconciliation requires a commitment from the whole community,” he said.
“The Lions Club have shown their willingness to be a community leader by supporting this name change.”
In the coming weeks the precinct will be given a Woi-wurrung name approved by the Wurundjeri Woi-wurrung Cultural Heritage Aboriginal Corporation, honouring the original owners of the land.
“We would like to thank past and present members of the Warrandyte Lions Club of the last 40-plus years for maintaining the park and the tennis courts, as well as contributing $45,000 towards the latest exercise equipment,” Cr Conlon said.
Warrandyte Lions Club President David Englefield said it was an honour to look after the park and provide a much loved gathering space for the community over the last four decades.
“The Lions Club has always been looking to make a difference and improve the lives of the Warrandyte people and others in our community,” he said.
“Reconciliation is important and this is an incredible opportunity for us to work with Council and with due consultation, provide leadership in honouring First Nations communities.”
Works on the playspace upgrade are anticipated to begin early next year and completed by mid-2022.
The completed upgrade of the park will feature significant signage taking visitors on a journey through its history and the involvement of the Warrandyte Lions Club.
Manningham will continue to work with the Warrandyte Lions Club on recognising their contributions on a plaque and interpretive signage.
Manningham will continue to work with the Warrandyte Lions Club, Warrandyte Historical Society and the Warrandyte Community Association on the maintenance of the park to ensure it honours its past and present custodians.

Manningham Council is creating a new urban park in Doncaster Hill and is inviting the community to co-design it.
The park, to be known as Hepburn Reserve, was identified as an important community initiative in the Doncaster Hill Strategy 2002 (revised 2004) and will provide additional open space to everyone living, working or visiting the Doncaster Hill area.
The new park will be located on Hepburn Road in Doncaster, between Walker Street and Gifford Street where Council have acquired several properties to make way for the new space.
The community is invited to share their ideas for the new park and can do so by completing an online survey or by attending a community park design event on Saturday 16 November 2019.
The community park design event will include free entertainment for the whole family such as coffee, face painting, a lemonade cart, drawing activities and games for the kids.
Manningham Mayor, Cr Paul McLeish, said he is very excited about the creation of a new park in Doncaster Hill and is looking forward to seeing the enduring benefits of this project in the community. “Open space is so valuable in our community, and for residents living nearby the addition of a new park in Doncaster Hill will be welcome news.
To make this park great we’re asking residents to give us their big ideas on playspaces, trees, vegetation and more. This is the communities chance to tell us what they’d love to see in their new local park.”

Manningham Council approved the masterplan for Lions Park in Warrandyte on Tuesday 25 September.
The masterplan has been informed by community feedback and proposes a series of upgrades for the area.
Key features of the masterplan include additional picnic facilities, seating and barbecues, an improved path layout, outdoor fitness equipment as well as new drinking fountains, signage, landscaping and public art elements. The masterplan also includes redesigning the car park at Lions Park.
Manningham Mayor Cr Andrew Conlon said the final masterplan provides a guide for the proposed works and improvements in Lions Park.
“Feedback from our community provided great insights into a shared vision for the park, which includes a space to relax by the river, community gathering, paths and walking tracks.
“This is a wonderful area of Warrandyte, the feedback from our community has helped ensure the Lions Park masterplan features places and spaces for the whole community to enjoy,” Cr Conlon said.
The masterplan has been developed following the VicRoads Warrandyte bridge widening project and the removal of the former tennis courts.
Funding for the implementation of the full masterplan is being sought. Council has allocated a total of $450,000 to the upgrade of Lions Park over 2019/20 and 2020/21.

Stage two of the Lions Park upgrade along the Warrandyte River Reserve is set to benefit from a $300,000 grant as part of the Victorian State Government’s Local Parks Program.
Manningham Mayor Cr Andrew Conlon said Manningham was successful in securing the maximum value of the grant per project from the Government’s $10 million program, and works are anticipated to begin early next year.
At the end of 2020, Manningham consulted with the community on the concept plan for a new playspace as part of the park’s upgrades.
“Thank you to everyone who provided feedback. We’ve reviewed these and have adjusted the final plan,” Cr Conlon said.
“The successful grant application will enable us to make the necessary amendments and carry out the works, improving the amenity of the park.”
The new upgrades will expand the existing playspace and aims to further connect the community with the natural habitat of Warrandyte.
The playspace is inspired by the animal crossing structure completed in stage one, and gives children the impression of moving among the trees like native animals. It will feature play opportunities for children of all ages and abilities.
Stage two works are anticipated to be completed in mid-2022.

Do you need to apply for a new Disabled Parking Permit, or renew or replace an existing permit?
The Victorian Government has introduced a simpler process now known as the Accessible Parking Permit Scheme. A new online system is available to help streamline the application process. Improvements include:
Permanent permits are valid for five years rather than three years
A new permanent disability classification has been introduced, so that reassessments are not required for future permit renewals
A new single and secure state-wide permit design that will reduce the misuse of permits
The inclusion of occupational therapists as assessors, in addition to GPs.
All existing Disabled Parking Permits will remain valid until their expiry date or until 30 June 2023, whichever date occurs first.

Wonga Park Community Cottage has transformed into a welcoming village space with a new community outdoor dining area to sit, connect and enjoy a cuppa.
Louise Schweiger, Manager of the Wonga Park Community Cottage identified the need for a local place where people could connect and share a coffee together.
“With the closure of the local village shopping centre at Wonga Park, places to grab a coffee and have a chat were few and far between.
“We heard about the Placemaking funding and thought it would be great to create a Covid-safe space outdoors, where people could feel welcome to meet and connect with each other.”
Designed to improve community partnerships, the outdoor seating area and planter boxes were installed to create a friendly, happy space.
“Council’s design team consulted with us and came up with a wonderful plan. They were mindful of the rustic bush surroundings where the seating and tables would be installed and reflected this in the wooden materials they used.
“The users of the Community Cottage really appreciate the initiative. What was a single use loading zone has now become a usable space. We’re now in the process of contracting a coffee van to visit the site.
Wonga Park Community Cottage collaborated with the local tennis club and adjoining Burch Memorial Kindergarten to determine how the outdoor seating area would meet their needs.
“The way it evolved was perfect. It already meets the needs of people attending the Community Cottage and will be a welcoming space for everyone in the community. We plan to use it for pop-up events for EACH Youth Services.
“Importantly this new outdoor community space can be used by people from the nearby tennis club, kindergarten, walking groups and wider community. It really fills the gap by connecting people and creating a little village space until the new shopping centre development comes online.”
The project was funded under Manningham’s Placemaking program.

Manningham Council CEO, Andrew Day welcomed the Victorian Government’s announcement to construct a new Park and Ride facility at Thompsons Road in Bulleen.
“Council has been advocating for years for improved bus services and transport facilities in Manningham, so this new Park and Ride facility is a welcome addition.
“We hope the new Bulleen Park and Ride facility will support an increase in public transport use by providing a state-of-the-art facility with all the modern amenities for commuters, including high quality bicycle parking.
“We also welcome the potential of the new and improved public space as part of this facility. This will provide a unique park in the region that integrates well with the new Park and Ride facility and achieves positive urban design outcomes for the community.
“Manningham is the only municipality in metropolitan Melbourne that does not have a tram or rail line. The Doncaster Area Rapid Transit bus system is already at full capacity and straining under growing demand for more services.
“The reliability and frequency of bus services from Manningham to the CBD is impacted by traffic congestion on local roads and the freeway network.
“The new Park and Ride facility at Bulleen will offer bus commuters the opportunity to park their car locally and avoid congesting the inner road network with more traffic.
“We will work closely with North East Link Project to mitigate any impacts to surrounding residents and ensure they are kept up to date on the progress of this new facility.
“We look forward to working with the Victorian Government to deliver this world class Park and Ride facility.”
… out about our street sweeping program in Manningham Tags Parking, Roads and Footpaths Roads and footpaths … Street …
Under the Road Management Act 2004, we are responsible for street sweeping on local roads within Manningham to remove a build-up of fallen leaves and rubbish.
Why do we need street sweeping?
Street sweeping prevents the influx of leaf fall and litter from entering the underground drainage system potentially causing blockages, subsequent flooding and damaging the environment.
Litter not collected often ends up washing into open watercourses and into local creeks and the Yarra River.
Sweeping also benefits the overall amenity of the street, removes the build-up of dirt and leaves and reduces weeds along the kerb and channel.
What areas does Council sweep?
Council is responsible for maintaining 608km of local roads within Manningham.
Our street sweeping program includes:
sealed roads with kerb and channel
car parks and underpasses
laneways and footpaths within Council maintained shopping precincts.
The Department of Transport and Planning (VicRoads) is responsible for maintaining the arterial road network.
When is street sweeping done?
Street sweeping is run throughout the year to keep our streets clean. We increase the frequency in a number of streets during Autumn when there is more leaf litter on the roads. Shopping precincts and key locations are given high priority.
