Feedback to shape future of St Leonards Pier

PARKS VICTORIA has captured feedback from nearly 800 community members to help shape the future of the St Leonards Pier.

The Consultation Summary Report for the St Leonards Local Port Area Plan featured a strong desire to preserve the current character of the pier and to support recreational activities such as walking, swimming and fishing.

Additionally, there was concerns about environmental protection, which will be carefully considered in future planning.

Bellarine MP Alison Marchant thanked everyone for contributing to the report by submitting feedback in March and April

this year.

“I understand how much this project means to the community and I thank everyone for their engagement and views.

“The consultation is an important part of the project and will help shape further works.

“I am proud to see this investment for St Leonards and the Bellarine and look forward to working with the community as the project progresses.”

Parks Victoria will incorporate feedback into the developmental progress and further investigate maritime heritage and environmental values.

More information will be presented in the coming months.
