Parks and Gardens

Colourful flowers, wildlife, nature walks, open spaces, play facilities, skate parks, recreation and fitness facilities, barbecue facilities - these and many other features make up the many wonderful parks and gardens available for all to use in the South Burnett Region.

Many requests are received each year from residents for use of the parks for weddings and other party type functions. Council welcomes this usage and suggests that you complete Council's Use of Council Parkland / Reserve Land form to advise Council of your proposed usage. Unfortunately, it is not possible to reserve spaces in the parks because of their extensive use. All uses are on a first-come, first-served basis.

Parks and Gardens and roadside rest area maintenance is the responsibility of Council's Corporate Services Department. You can contact them about any issues relating to parks, gardens or roadside rest areas by phoning your local Council Customer Service Centre on (07) 4189 9100.

Maintenance of public conveniences and waste collection is the responsibility of Council's Corporate Services Department. You can contact them about any issue relating to public conveniences or park waste collection by phoning your local Council Customer Service Centre on (07) 4189 9100.
