(2) If applicable, why was one oval maintained more than the other.
(3) What are the current maintenance plans in place for each of these ovals, including the nature of the maintenance works and how often works will be performed.
Ms Berry: The answer to the member’s question is as follows:
(1) (a) Macquarie Oval - Mowing was undertaken on this oval as follows:
• 27/09/2019
• 17/10/2019
• 25/02/2020
• 18/03/2020
• 21/04/2020
(b) Spence Oval - Mowing was undertaken on this oval as follows:
• 23/09/2019
• 15/10/2019
• 03/12/2019
• 20/03/2020
(2) Both of these neighbourhood ovals are mown in line with the general suburban mowing program for open spaces and parkland, however if grass height is not sufficient to warrant mowing it is not undertaken.
(3) Neighbourhood ovals are suitable for informal recreation and serve as a play space for the local community. They are not suitable for organised formal sporting use. Neighbourhood ovals are mown on the same cycle as other suburban mowing, around six times per year depending on the season. The surface is also inspected periodically to ensure it is in a safe condition. A final 2019-20-year mow of Spence and Macquarie ovals is scheduled to take place in early June 2020.
