Thank you for participating in the ‘BMX in Nillumbik’ survey.

In total we received an incredible 430 responses, demonstrating the interest and need for Council to invest in future BMX and other outdoor recreational activities for our young people. You can read the full consultation findings in the report BMX in Nillumbik Survey Report.

Firstly, we want to thank you for your passion in your responses – the results have shown a need for more investment in BMX and skate facilities in Nillumbik Shire.

The survey results were presented to Councillors and they have responded by endorsing a grant submission for a $600,000 upgrade to the Eltham Skate Park, which will be submitted by 9 September.

This opportunity is just one or the many steps we will be taking to further BMX in Nillumbik and the consultation report and findings are a useful foundation piece that will be utilised to build upon the development of a future BMX Strategy for Nillumbik which will be led by the Recreation and Leisure team.

Should you have any questions don’t hesitate to contact Council leisure@nillumbik.vic.gov.au.
