The Navan Park upgrade will increase tree planting and shade, add natural play elements to the existing play space, improve accessible footpath connections of the play space, car park, and lake to enhance the range of passive and recreation facilities that the park offers to all members of the community.

Melton City Council acknowledges the support of the Victorian Government.

Thank you to everyone who provided valuable feedback during the consultation period from

18 July and 5 August 2022. Feedback was collected through various channels, including an online survey, distribution of hard copy flyers, email submissions, phone consultations and a face-to-face session held at Sovereign Boulevard Reserve. Your feedback was taken into consideration when finalising the detailed design and documentation.

Please refer to the Document Library for the summary of feedback and Council's response.

As part of our commitment to preserving local biodiversity, a recent assessment has identified the presence of native grasses within the project area. In response, the design has been carefully adjusted to minimise any impact on these important natural assets, while also ensuring that the community’s enjoyment of the space remains unchanged.

Following the August Council Meeting, the project tender has been awarded, with construction scheduled to begin in late September. While the design has been slightly refined to align with the approved budget, there are no major changes to the overall plan. However, the two platforms along the lake remain under discussion and are likely to be included in future projects. Updates on any further decisions will be posted on this page.
