Schedule 3: Reserve to be reclassified

The Council intends to reclassify the purposes of the following existing reserve, under Section 24(1) of the Reserves Act, for the reasons listed below:

  • Reclassify from Recreation reserve to Local purpose (stormwater) reserve to better align with primary purpose and current use as part of the city’s natural water network and align classification of all land parcels in the reserve for easier management.
  • Pari Reserve, like other gully systems in the city’s natural water network, may require us to work on, improve infrastructure, or manage the area differently than what a recreational classification would allow under the Act.
