Makeover planned for Queen Elizabeth Reserve

The community are being asked their views on a plan to upgrade the popular park in Lindfield.

Queen Elizabeth Reserve is one of Lindfield’s largest public parks, with an off-leash dog exercise area, soccer field, tennis courts, a multi-use sports court and picnic areas.

The draft landscape masterplan is on public exhibition for feedback until 27 March and will guide future upgrades to the park. It was developed following a period of community consultation last year.

Under the proposed plan, Queen Elizabeth Reserve would have a network of pedestrian pathways linking surrounding streets with the park, as well as new picnic shelters, BBQs and seating.

Three options for basketball facilities, along with other suggested locations to relocate the dog exercise area are included in the plan.

The plan proposes more spectator seating for the sportsfield and the children’s playground would be upgraded.

Mayor Jeff Pettett said the Council was keen to hear feedback on the draft plan and whether it met community expectations.

“We had some very good conversations with park users last year and there are several options to consider for improvements.”

“Once we have assessed your comments then the plan can be finalised.”
