Bayside City Council has adopted a plan to conserve, manage and protect the Highett Grassy Woodland following extensive community consultation.

Bayside City Council is committed to protecting the public beach, heritage registered bathing boxes, dunes, aboriginal cultural heritage and remnant native vegetation.

We’ve created a wildflower meadow of indigenous vegetation by planting approximately 15,000 new plants and shrubs and 1,000 new trees at Yalukit Willam Nature Reserve. When the meadow opens in July, some areas will remain temporarily fenced to help the new plants and trees establish. There will also be netting to help protect aquatic plantings from the ravenous local ducks. New community facilities also opening in July include a covered shelter, picnic and barbecue facilities, as well as public toilets. This area, called the Community Edge, provides a comfortable place for visitors to relax and enjoy the wildflower meadow.

The pool will be closed between Tuesday 25 June and Thursday 27 June for essential repairs to the boiler.

New developments in Bayside will contribute 0.92% of the value of the project towards affordable housing under a new proposed contribution scheme that is the first of its kind in Victoria.
