Memorials Policy

Policy number	CPOL/INFRA519
Next review	February 2030

Swan Hill Rural City Council (Council) recognises that members of the community may wish to use public open space (parks, reserves, streets, etc.) to plant tree memorials or purchase and install a park bench or seat as a memorial to their loved ones. Other memorials, such as interpretive boards, may be placed by Council or community group to commemorate a person, an event or for the official opening of a completed Council project.

This policy has been established to provide consistency and control in relation to the use of public open space in the placement of memorials and interpretive boards, so as to ensure they do not negatively impact these spaces.

Applications will be assessed strictly applying the criteria set out in this policy and the procedure.
