Melton council is developing a new masterplan to reactivate Lake Caroline and the surrounding parks and is seeking help from the local community.

Over the next month, council are undertaking planning for the Lake Caroline Masterplan and Activation Strategy, to maximise social and recreational opportunities of the Lake and adjacent public space.

This consultation will help determine what facilities would improve the area to promote community use, including on the water.

Residents who live around the area, employees of surrounding businesses, visitors and local sporting and recreational groups are all encouraged to share their thoughts.

Melton Mayor Lara Carli said Lake Caroline is the heart of Caroline Springs and a big part of many peoples’ lives.

“We want to make it even better,” she said.

“We are inviting everyone to help shape the exciting future for Lake Caroline.

“We want to know what you value about the Lake, its features and facilities, and what needs improving.”

There’ll be a community drop-in session about the plan at Caroline Springs Library on September 9 from 10am to 12pm.

You can share your thoughts online before September 17.
