Community gardens are places for people to grow food, create habitat, connect with nature and their local community. Nature strips can provide places for individuals to increase biodiversity and improve local streetscapes.

These policies bring together previous policies and procedures into two separate policies.

The policies provide a framework for Council to support community gardens and nature strip gardeners. The polices have been developed in consultation with the community.

Exhibition period

The exhibition period for the Community Gardens Policy and Nature Strip Policy is open until 5pm, Monday 28 September 2020.
