Located between Beaconsfield’s two major commercial precincts, Jim Parkes Reserve is a green space in the town centre that serves surrounding residential areas and has been identified for revitalisation this financial year. Currently developed with children’s play equipment and a picnic shelter, we want to know what you think of the Draft Masterplan that has been developed with consideration of the Beaconsfield Structure Plan and community input.

The Beaconsfield Structure Plan (2013) identifies Jim Parkes as a key open space within the town centre that has the potential to offer amenity to a wider spectrum of the community and become a highly valued public space in Beaconsfield. The Plan identifies the opportunity to provide a better relationship between the commercial land and the park and significantly increase passive surveillance of the space. A high-level concept plan was prepared as part of the Structure Plan with the main objectives and actions to:

• Provide a point of termination to the retail precinct of Beaconsfield.
• Develop a central play space in Beaconsfield.
• Prepare a masterplan, and obtain funding, for the revitalisation of Jim Parkes Reserve generally in accordance with Figure 9 of the Beaconsfield Structure Plan.

The survey is now complete. Please see the final Concept Plan for the Reserve in the Document Library below.
