We’re developing a Stormwater Management Strategy (Strategy) to help identify, manage and reduce flood risk to people, property, infrastructure and the environment.
The Strategy will comprise a two-part document including:
It will guide our planning and investment in the long-term Capital Works Program to support a healthy, safe and resilient community.
It will be informed by a range of Council endorsed documents, existing data sources (customer requests), flood mapping information and internal stakeholder feedback. An external consultant is assisting Council officers to prepare the Strategy.
Council will consider the draft Policy for adoption in late 2024.

Hermann Reserve provides conservation value, as part of the Porter Street, Biosite 35 in Council’s Healthy Habitats Bushland Management Strategy 2012. This includes significant remnant Red Gum trees and additional Red Gums that have naturally regenerated in the vegetated parts of the Reserve. Further planting of Red Gums in some areas that are currently mown is supported.
The reserve provides pedestrian access between Hermann Court, Dora Court and Porter Street and an attractive green buffer in this residential area. There is a Melbourne Water main drain running through the reserve and a natural wetland area. The walking/ bicycle path along Porter Street has been upgraded.
Have you noticed something unsafe like a broken tree branch or damaged playground that needs our attention?
Some types of events, such as festivals or school's cross country runs need a special permission to be held on public land.
Aloha Reserve comprises most of the Urban Miscellaneous (Reynolds Road), Biosite 35 in Council’s Healthy Habitats Bushland Management Strategy 2012. The large local park 7340m2 (0.75 ha) runs along a drainage line and is well established with mature, remnant vegetation.
The Reserve connects Reynolds Road to Aloha Gardens but due to lack of footpaths or bus stops along this section of Reynolds Road, there is little pedestrian traffic through the Reserve. This steep site should be managed primarily as a conservation site. Consideration could be given to seating.
