Community engagement for the FJ Davies Reserve Landscape Concept Plan began in 2018, with a major round of consultation held in July 2024 through an online survey, mail-out, and in-person session. Feedback was sought from local residents, traders, community groups, and other stakeholders.

The draft Concept Plan received strong support, with 81% of survey respondents in favour and 93% supporting a play space upgrade. While suggestions were made—particularly regarding the playground theme, tree species, and lawn maintenance—no major changes were required due to the overall positive feedback. These comments will be considered in future detailed design stages, which will include further community input. The full community consultation report can be found here.

Council has resolved to adopt the Concept Plan, noting its delivery is subject to the annual budget process.
