Now under construction in the north-eastern corner of Ballam Park, the system will use plants, water circulation and aeration to naturally treat stormwater before it reaches the ocean.
Cr Kris Bolam said: “Council will be enhancing the system with an ornamental lake and community amenities such as lighting, art, park furniture, BBQ, landscaping, drinking fountain and connecting pathways to create a new experience for visitors to Ballam Park.
“As well as its environmental benefits, the new project will create additional passive recreation opportunities and complement the existing active sport and recreation and play spaces in the park,” he said.
The $2.3 million project is jointly funded by Council, Melbourne Water, and a low-interest loan from the Victorian Government. Community engagement about the project was undertaken last year. Also at Ballam Park, Council will begin work on stage two of the $3 million play space upgrade in February. The project is funded by Council through the Victorian Government’s Community Infrastructure Loan Scheme and is due for completion in late March.
