Background

The former Primary School site, located at 3-5 Rollo Street Yarragon, is approximately 0.9 hectares in size and has the potential to provide a significant public asset on the eastern side of Yarragon.

The site which was purchased by Baw Baw Shire Council for community use in 2020. The site is level, features numerous established trees, grassed areas and is fenced off from adjacent roads and laneways.

Phase one of this consultation process was undertaken by Council in January and February 2021, and the feedback received during phase one has resulted in the development of a draft masterplan for the site.

Council is now seeking feedback from the community on this draft masterplan before the plan is finalised, and adopted by Council for future implementation.
