September 2020:

The West Footscray Community Facilities Master Plan will accommodate a mix of current and future uses to address the needs of a growing population. It reinforces the importance of RecWest, Shorten, Barrett and Johnson reserves as primary open spaces and recreation facilities in West Footscray, which are also critical to the wellbeing of residents.

Following the Plan adoption, officers were authorised to begin the necessary site planning and due diligence through an environmental audit and risk assessment of landfill ground conditions, inclusive of geotechnical investigations; and advocate for State and Federal funding to support implementation.

We look forward to continued engagement with the local community as the projects progress.

Please note – a masterplan is a high level visionary planning document that provides a conceptual layout only. Elements of the plans can and are likely to change as detailed designs progress.
