I haven't read the policy document but would have concerns about ideas of play equipment etc. Who would ensure adequate maintenance, safety etc. Who would be responsible for costs in the event of an accident, possibly from misuse? My idea of a verge garden would be that it is like a low-key extension of nature with opportunities for misadventure considered and mitigated.

Hi Gayle, Not sure if your database has City of Parramatta (NSW) Verge policy / guidelines yet - my LGA regards https://cityofparramatta.nsw.gov.au/nature-strip

Thanks - added it now. That's a great policy. Very practical. Checklists work well. Have you planted yours?
