Macedon and Mount Macedon Community House will be holding a community consultation workshop on Sunday, April 30, to discuss the upcoming landscaping at the house.
The open space surrounding the Macedon property on Victoria street will be transformed to support the activities of the groups that use the house, including; multiple gardens and a community exchange area.
Vice president and project manager Karen Goltz said they are looking for community members to contribute what they want to see in the design at the meeting, which will take place from 11am to 12.30pm.
“The landscape design principles and concept drawings have been developed, and now it is time for community members to provide input into the design development process,” Ms Goltz said.
“At the workshop they will also hear about how they can become involved in the garden construction, planting and maintenance phases of the project.”
Designers Hansen Partnership have been appointed for the project’s design phase, with consultants working with the house management committee, Macedon Ranges council and Regional Development Victoria.
The feedback from the workshop will go directly to the house project management team and Hansen Partnership, with lunch and refreshments available at the consultation.
The project has been funded with $147,000 from the state government, $12,000 from the Macedon Ranges council, along with contributions from local organisations, businesses and residents.
RSVP is required by Thursday, April 27.
