The Waterways and Drainage Charge funds a range of projects that benefit the entire region.
Find a park, trail or other facility in your area that is funded by your Parks Charge contribution.
There is currently no discount available on the Parks Charge or Waterways and Drainage Charge for concession card holders.
The charge is collected annually because it is more cost efficient for the community than collecting it quarterly.
Land that is exempt from the Parks Charge includes public primary and high schools; local council parks and other recreational lands; properties classified as ‘farm’ by your local council
The Parks Charge ensures that our parks and other facilities are maintained and staffed for the enjoyment of future generations of Victorian families.
