The Nature Strip Guidelines Community Consultation has closed. Visit the Have Your Say platform see progress and the new draft guidelines.

The existing guidelines remain current and enforceable.

Very restricted planting is permitted in Geelong

“Where a footpath exists, residents have the choice to use gravels, synthetic turf or ground covers below 10 centimetres in height.”

“Where no footpath exists, the nature strip needs to allow for pedestrian movement. To enable this, only gravels can be used as an alternative to grass.”
