Article Content

Manningham Council would like to inform residents that from Tuesday 28 January 2025 through to mid March, your household may receive a call from an independent market research agency, National Field Services. They have been commissioned to conduct our 2025 Community Satisfaction Survey on behalf of the council. Please be assured that your details and individual responses are confidential.

The Community satisfaction survey is a yearly requirement. For these surveys, the market agency reaches out by phone to 400 randomly selected residents. The results of the phone conversations are then analysed, reported back to us, and discussed internally. 

This helps us to learn more about our performance across several areas. It also helps us to understand where changes and improvements are necessary.

Have your say on the Draft Road Safety Strategy and Action Plan 2025-2035

We’re seeking feedback on our draft Road Safety Strategy 2025-2035, which identifies road improvements, targeted education and speed zone reviews as our key priorities. 

The draft strategy outlines clear objectives and a detailed action plan to enhance road safety and reduce traffic-related accidents, injuries and fatalities

Our Mayor, Councillor Deirdre Diamante, said this strategy will guide proactive projects and programs over the next decade.

“We’re committed to improving our transport system as we strive for ‘Vision Zero’— where nobody is seriously injured or killed on our roads,” said Cr Diamante. 

“To plan for safer roads, we first needed to understand the local issues and experiences of road users in Manningham.

“We received more than 200 responses to last year’s community survey, which told us what matters most to our community.

“Now we want to ensure the proposed strategy and action plan accurately reflects community priorities,” she said.

Key proposed actions include:

  • road safety audits in high-risk areas
  • infrastructure upgrades
  • speed limit reviews
  • continual road user education
  • updates to the Manningham Walking and Cycling Strategy

The draft strategy was informed by feedback from last year’s community consultation, local road safety data, input from road safety partners and aligns with State and Federal strategies.
 

Have Your Say

Provide feedback by completing our survey on the draft Road Safety Strategy 2025-2035 via Your Say Manningham by 21 February 2025. 

Feedback from the community and Councillors will shape the final version of the strategy, which will be presented for Council endorsement in early 2025.

Our position on a glass-only recycling bin service

Article Content

We are one of 31 Victorian Councils calling on the State Government to reconsider the requirement of a kerbside glass recycling bin for all households by 1 July 2027.

As a group, Councils are advocating for the mandatory implementation of the fourth glass-only bin service to be postponed and reconsidered.

We are concerned about the cost implications for our community and want to see the State Government release its business case for the service and delay its commencement date until Councils have had time to review it appropriately.

The cost to implement a fourth glass-only bin service is estimated at $4 million, plus, on average, $27 per household per year. 

As an advocacy group, Councils sent a joint a letter to the Minister for Environment, the Hon. Steve Dimopoulos, late last year, which outlined the findings of a Council investigation on the feasibility of the service in comparison to alternative options for glass recycling.

The investigation found that expanding the existing Container Deposit Scheme to include wine and spirit bottles would provide similar circularity benefits to a glass-only bin service, without passing on excessive costs to Councils and residents.

We want to see the State Government listen to Councils’ concerns and consider alternative options before forcing the implementation of a glass-only kerbside recycling bin.

As part of our advocacy for Manningham on this important issue, we have also submitted a motion to the Municipal Association of Victoria to repeal the Circular Economy (Waste Reduction and Recycling) Act 2021 provisions, which mandate Victorian Councils provide a glass-only service to households.

You can find out more about this motion in the 25 February Council Meeting Minutes. See Item 13.2, MAV State Council Motions.

Media release: Virtual fences on Jumping Creek Road to protect wildlife and reduce roadkill

On this page Yarra Ward Protecting our environment … Media releases … Media release: Virtual fences on Jumping Creek Road to protect wildlife and reduce roadkill …

Did you know there are 20 virtual fence posts positioned along Jumping Creek Road, between Nelson Drive and the entrance to Warrandyte State Park’s Jumping Creek Reserve, to protect local wildlife and help reduce roadkill?

Installed by Manningham Council as part of the Jumping Creek Road upgrade, these innovative virtual fences are designed to save animals’ lives by releasing sound and light when a car approaches.

Manningham Mayor, Councillor Deirdre Diamante, said the initiative is an important step towards addressing wildlife road fatalities.

“These virtual fences are a fantastic way to protect our local wildlife, especially in areas where animals frequently cross the road,” Cr Diamante said.

“We strategically placed these fences near Jumping Creek, as animals use creeks as habitat corridors.” 

“You will see the fence posts along the side of the road… and we encourage residents to be aware and help us keep our wildlife safe.”

While they might look like street posts, these virtual fences play a crucial role in enhancing road safey for both wildlife and drivers. 

Local wildlife rescuer, Katja Gutwein, has seen the benefits of these fences firsthand.

“The virtual fence is a low-cost solution that has drastically reduced wildlife fatalities and improved safety for all road users,” Ms Gutwein said. 

If you spot any damage to the fences, contact Manningham Council on 9840 9333 or email environment@manningham.vic.gov.au. 

The fences were installed as part of the Jumping Creek Road upgrade, which aims to improve road safety for all road users.

UPDATED: 28 March 2025 new date for community workshop

A new Arts Action Plan is set to guide future arts, culture and local history services, programs and activities in Manningham.

To inform the plan, artists, creatives and community members are invited to provide feedback to Council on what’s important to them about arts, culture and local history, and the types of programs they would like to see in the municipality.

Manningham Mayor, Cr Deirdre Diamante, said arts, culture and local history enriched community life by providing opportunities for expression and creativity, social connections and a sense of identity and belonging.

“Whether it’s visual arts and exhibitions, theatre, music and live performances, writing and literature, or photography and film - arts and culture touches everyone,” Cr Diamante said.

“Our local history dates back thousands of years from the traditional owners, the Wurrundjeri Woi-wurrung people, through the days of European settlement to our present multicultural community.

“Creative industries also form an important part of our local economy.”

Feedback can be provided by completing an online survey, or attending an online community workshop on Wednesday 8 April 2025, 6.00pm to 7.30pm.

More information is available at Your Say Manningham. Feedback closes Friday 25 April 2025.

Article Content

We’re reviewing our Road Management Plan to ensure local roads remain well-maintained, safe and functional for everyone.

Manningham’s Road Management Plan (RMP) sets our responsibilities, standards and procedures for managing our road network, which consists of more than 680 kilometres of local roads. 

The plan doesn’t include the management of road safety issues or the maintenance of trees, vegetation, nature strips or private assets, such as vehicle crossings.

Proposed changes to the Road Management Plan

As part of our review, we’re proposing some updates to the RMP, including clear, concise language and a streamlined format, consistent with the latest industry-standard template from the Municipal Association of Victoria. 

These changes aim to make it easier for you to understand our road maintenance standards and what you can expect from our services. 

Our Mayor, Councillor Deirdre Diamante said community feedback will help ensure the revised plan responds to emerging needs and priorities. 

“Maintaining our roads and footpaths is one of Council’s most important services – helping keep our community safe and connected,” Cr Diamante said.

“I encourage all residents to share their feedback to help us create a plan that will deliver outcomes that matter most to our residents,” she said.

Have your say

You can review the revised Road Management Plan online, or in person at the Manningham Civic Centre at 699 Doncaster Road, Doncaster.
Have your say before 5.00pm on Thursday 17 April 2025, through:

  • an online form at Your Say Manningham. 
  • mail submission addressed to Manningham Council, Andrea Szymanski, Manager Infrastructure and Sustainable Operations, PO Box 1, Doncaster 3108 
  • email at manningham@manningham.vic.gov.au.

All submissions will be considered before the revised RMP is presented to Council for adoption.

The community is invited to have their say on local dog and cat management, which will inform Manningham’s Domestic Animal Management Plan (DAMP) 2026-2029. 

Manningham Mayor, Councillor Deirdre Diamante said the success of the plan relies on the community sharing their insights around issues, priorities and opportunities to improve animal management.

“This plan is crucial to addressing community concerns, while also playing a key role in creating a safe and healthy community for both people and animals in Manningham,” Cr Diamante said.

The DAMP will provide a framework for how Council manages pets and supports their owners. Residents are invited to provide feedback on several key areas, including:

  • Registration and identification of dogs and cats
  • Nuisance dogs and cats
  • Dog aggression and attacks
  • Dog walking in Manningham
  • Lost and found animals

“Research has consistently shown that pets have a profound impact on people’s lives – increasing their sense of safety, social connections and improving their owner’s health and wellbeing.

“We all love and cherish our pets, who bring endless joy and companionship to our daily lives. 

This is your opportunity to have your say on what matters most to you,” Cr Diamante said.

Have your say

Have your say by filling out the short survey at yoursay.manningham.vic.gov.au/damp.

The displays, on show until Spring, are by artist Kayla Moon, of floristry business xfloss, and are examples of biophilic design.

Biophilic design is about increasing our connection to the natural world within our built environment.

Kayla specialises in unusual large-scale sculptural pieces that combine different materials, colours and structural elements that are both beautiful and thought-provoking.

“Our work is unconventional because of the style of the materials that we use,” Kayla said.

“I love to create sculptures that are big floral monsters - more unusual, even grotesque – beautiful but a bit terrifying.”

Indeed, Kayla’s displays in the foyers of the Civic Centre and MC Square feature the dried and preserved weed Amaranthus, highlighting the beauty of what could considered a ‘monster’ outside its native environment. 

Kayla has combined the Amaranthus with the air plant Old Man’s Beard, Papyrus Sedge, and branches of Corokia to create beautiful sculptural displays.

“I’ve brought together different types of plants at different stages of their lifecycle – weeds, airplants, bushes and deciduous plants. I think it provides insights into natural materiality and the beauty of nature and how you can use flowers, twigs, rocks and other natural items as a medium.”

Biophilia refers to our innate connection with nature and was first coined by psychologist Eric Fromm in 1964. The word biophilia originates from the Greek words ‘bio’, meaning life, and ‘philia’, meaning ‘love of’, resulting in ‘in a love of life or living things’.

In our modern world, biophilic design supports connection to the natural world through practical design principals such as the use of natural shape and forms, environmental features, light and space. 

Bringing the natural world into our home and work environments has many health benefits, including relieving stress and improving our mental and physical wellbeing.

You, too, can bring biophilic design into your own home or workplace. Try some of these tips:

  • Live plants: One of the easiest ways to bring biophilic design into your home is through live plants. Spider plants, snake plants, rubber plants and peace lilies are all known for their air purifying abilities and look good too.
  • Texture and shape: Decorate your home with textures and shapes that replicate what you might find in nature. Materials such as wood, clay, cork or wool add a natural feel or you could find objects that mimic the patterns and forms of our natural world. 
  • Colour: In colour psychology, green is known to calm and rejuvenate, so think about bringing natural colours into your home that make you feel peaceful and bring you a sense of joy, seek inspiration from sunsets, waterways and green spaces.
  • Light: If you can, position desks or communal areas around windows to optimise natural light. Reflective surfaces such as stainless-steel bench tops and mirrors can help make a small space feel brighter and more expansive.
  • Airflow: Open windows when you can to ensure natural air flow or invest in an air purifier. 
  • Scent: Can be a powerful sensory experience. Use diffusers, candles, incense, or natural cleaning products in the home, think about natural scents such as lavender or citrus and made from natural or non-toxic ingredients. You might want to try growing herbs like rosemary, mint or thyme on your windowsill – they smell fantastic, and you can cook with them, too.

Have your say on public toilet facilities in Manningham

Article Content

We’re reviewing Manningham’s Public Toilet Plan and seeking your feedback on local toilet facilities. The Public Toilet Plan is a 10-year plan to ensure a network of sustainable, safe, accessible and quality purpose-built facilities.

 

What’s been delivered so far?

Since the plan was endorsed in 2021, we’ve completed 12 new and upgraded public toilets across Manningham. We’re also on track to upgrade two more facilities by the end of the year at Mullum Mullum Trail and Cat Jump Reserve. 

See what’s been delivered and what we are planning here.

 

Why are public toilets important?

Public toilets are essential for people to enjoy public spaces without feeling restricted. They help us socialise, exercise, play, learn and engage with the community. Well-placed facilities also support local business by encouraging visitors and residents to spend more time in the area.

 

Have your say

To share your thoughts and ideas, complete our short survey by Sunday 29 June.

Your feedback will help us create better public toilet facilities for everyone.

To have your say visit YourSay Manningham Public Toilet Plan Review.

Manningham Council is reviewing its Public Toilet Plan (2021) and inviting feedback on where more public toilet facilities are needed in Manningham.

The Public Toilet Plan is a 10-year strategy designed to deliver a network of sustainable, safe, accessible and high-quality public toilets across Manningham.

Manningham Mayor, Councillor Deirdre Diamante said public spaces should be easy for everyone to use and public toilets play a vital role in creating welcoming and accessible spaces.

“Toilets might not be glamorous, but they’re essential in encouraging people to enjoy our parks, walking paths and public spaces without feeling restricted,” Cr Diamante said.

“Well-placed facilities ensure that residents and visitors feel comfortable and have the confidence to make the most of our public spaces.”

Since the Public Toilet Plan was adopted in 2021, Council has completed six new public toilet facilities and upgraded six, with two more to be delivered this year at Mullum Mullum Trail and Cat Jump Reserve.

Feedback sought on proposed new location for Gum Nut Gully Preschool

We’re seeking community feedback on a proposal to rebuild Gum Nut Gully Preschool at a new location in Doncaster East.

The proposal would see the preschool move from 58-60 Larnoo Drive, Doncaster East, to Corsican Reserve, 400m away at 12 Corsican Avenue.

Gum Nut Gully Preschool is managed by an independent, not-for-profit committee of parents and carers and was built in 1987.

The building is now reaching its end of life, and to ensure the continued delivery of high-quality early childhood education in the area, we are planning for the future of this important service.

We’re partnering with the Victorian Government through its Building Blocks program to replace the building with a new two-room modular facility, providing places for 66 children.

This would enable the kinder to meet demand for free 3 and 4-year-old kinder programs in the area.

However, site investigations have found it is unviable to build the modular preschool at its current location in Larnoo Drive due to a range of site complexities including the topography, environmental considerations and planning controls. 

Nearby Corsican Reserve has been identified as the best alternative for the preschool rebuild. It’s only a short walk to Mullum Mullum Linear Reserve, allowing the preschool to continue with is popular bush kinder program.

If the project proceeds, and preschool relocates, the existing preschool site in Larnoo Drive will be retained for community use.

We want to hear your thoughts on the proposal. Share your feedback by completing our survey at Your Say Manningham until 11.59pm, Tuesday 2 September 2025.

Manningham Council is seeking community feedback on a proposal to rebuild an expanded Gum Nut Gully Preschool at a new nearby location in Doncaster East.

The current preschool building in Larnoo Drive is reaching its end of life and is unable to expand to provide more places for local families.

“The much-loved Gum Nut Gully Preschool has been part of our community for almost 40 years,” Manningham Mayor Deirdre Diamante said.

“We value the unique services like the bush kinder program and want to ensure the preschool can continue providing local children with quality early years education for many more years to come.”

Council has received Victorian Government funding through the Building Blocks program to build a new modular two-room preschool with places for 66 children in 3 and 4-year-old kinder programs.

However, investigations have found the modular preschool cannot be built at the existing location without significant impact on trees and vegetation. Challenging site conditions also make the project unviable.  

Corsican Reserve, 400m away in Corsican Avenue, has been identified as the most suitable nearby location. Manningham Council is inviting feedback on this proposal and no decision has yet been made. Under the proposal, the existing Larnoo Drive site would be retained for community use.

“We want to support local families by providing them access to more free kinder places locally as well as replace the ageing facility,” Cr Diamante said.

“There are many important considerations, and we want to hear what the community has to say before making any decisions about this proposal,” Cr Diamante said.

The proposal is open for community feedback until 11:59pm, Tuesday 2 September at Your Say Manningham.

Manningham Council is inviting community feedback on proposed upgrades to Aranga Reserve dog park in Donvale.

A popular destination for dog owners across Manningham, Aranga Reserve currently features a designated dog activity park, the Friends of Manningham Dogs and Cats (FOMDAC) clubhouse, a playground and picnic area. 

The proposed upgrade includes new features for dogs and their owners including a new dog agility circuit, gated quiet dog area, new planting and a covered seating area.

The proposed upgrade is supported by funding from the Victorian Government as part of Round 2 of the New and Upgraded Dog Parks program.

The concept design submitted for funding was developed in collaboration with FOMDAC.

Manningham Mayor, Councillor Deirdre Diamante, invites community members to have their say on the proposed upgrade and acknowledges the contribution made by FOMDAC to the project.

“We want to hear from you – let us know what you think about the proposed upgrades for this popular dog park.”

“Working with FOMDAC has been instrumental in shaping a concept that truly reflects the needs of our community. 

Their insights and advocacy helped strengthen our application and ensure the proposed upgrades will deliver meaningful benefits for local dog owners and visitors.” Cr Diamante said.

The proposed concept plan includes a range of improvements designed to enhance the safety, comfort and usability of the park for dogs and their owners.

Key features of the upgrade include:

  • A new, separate double-gated quiet dog area
  • A second entrance to the main dog area, closer to Aranga Crescent
  • A new agility circuit in the main dog area
  • A covered seating area near the Eastway Avenue entrance
  • Path lighting between Aranga Crescent and Eastway Avenue
  • Additional tree planting
  • Path improvements.

Community members are encouraged to view the concept plan and complete a short survey by Monday 15 September at yoursay.manningham.vic.gov.au/aranga-dog-park-upgrade.
