The City of Marion is proposing to remove the tennis court playground from Nannigai Reserve and consolidate it with the facilities at Capella Reserve, Hallett Cove. We oppose this action, and wish for the playground and tennis court to remain for the continued enjoyment of the community.
The City of Marion's proposal has several negatives for local residents and users of these facilities. The playspace at Capella Reserve is over 700 m from Nannigai Reserve, and has very poor pedestrian access from the north, particularly for children in prams and on bicycles, with steep inclines and limited paved pathways, Capella Reserve is frequented by dog owners who allow their dogs to run off-lead on the soccer pitch adjacent and en-route to the playspace, which can often be affronting to other users of the reserve, especially children.
The tennis court and playspace at Nannigai Reserve have been enjoyed by the local community for many years and are an asset to the neighbourhood, and we wish for them to stay as they are.
We, the undersigned, request that the City of Marion does not remove or demolish the playspace or tennis court from Nannigai Reserve, Hallett Cove and that these facilities be kept and maintained for the continued enjoyment of the community.
