Expansion of community space at Domeney Reserve, Park Orchards

The Domeney Reserve, Park Orchards facility does not provide space, facilities or equipment suitable to be used for dinners & social functions that are sought by the local community and sporting clubs including:- - Park Orchards Football Netball Club - Park Orchards North Ringwood Parish Junior Football Club (combined referred to as the "Sharks") - Park Orchards Cricket Club The Sharks are the largest Australian Rules football club in Manningham City Council and also the local area with a combined 2,000 players & members. The project proposed is to expand on the social space area at Domeney Reserve.

The community of Park Orchards is a thriving hub of schools (2 primary schools) and community involvement in recreation & sport with large basketball, netball and football clubs for juniors & seniors. With a country feel the community engages in both sport and local community events.
There is a distinct lack of community facilities and areas available to hold functions. Facilities previously available are no longer so, or not suitable. Such as:-
- Park Orchards Chalet was sold off to private enterprise to develop as an aged care facility.
- Other rooms at Domeney are not suited for social functions.
