Spatial distribution of play spaces
Currently 5 play spaces. This is primarily a rural precinct and so spatial coverage is
less relevant. Play spaces have been developed at sports facilities such as Waurn
Ponds Tennis Club and Ceres Sports Reserve. Others such as Moolap Reserve,
Gateway Sanctuary and Drewan Park actually service adjoining precincts. No
additional play spaces are required at this time, however significant population
growth is forecast for this precinct and appropriate new play spaces must
accompany any residential developments and will be governed by population
density.
