Help Shape the Future of Open Spaces in Benalla Rural City

Benalla Rural City Council is developing a comprehensive Open Space Strategy 2026 – 2040 to guide the future planning, development, and management of parks, sporting fields, playgrounds, and nature reserves. This strategy will ensure our community has access to high-quality open spaces that promote active lifestyles, healthy environments, and strong social connections.

We want to hear from you! Your input will help identify gaps, explore opportunities, and shape priorities—especially within Benalla’s Urban Growth Area. Get involved and have your say on the future of our open spaces.

There are two ways that you can provide feedback for this project. You can complete the community survey (link below and in the side panel) and/or use the map tool below to place a marker to leave a comment about an open space that is important to you.

This project has been made possible through grant funding from the Victorian State Government 2023-24 Local Sports Infrastructure Fund - Planning Stream

The Survey is open until Friday 2nd May, 2025.
