This Master Plan Report was the first master plan prepared for metropolitan parks by the Melbourne Metropolitan Board of Works for many years. The period from 1974 when Jells Park was developed until about 1986 was an era of intensive land improvements and capital works, much conducted by Parks staff. This plan was approved in principle but published with an invitation for a final round of public comment. Dated September 1987.

 

A roneoed report on The Ecology of Braeside Sanctuary by DJ Tyson is undated, but would predate the annexation of the sewage farm to become Braeside Metropolitan Park in the early 1980s.
