Jury citation:
Sunvale Community Park represents the rebirth of the former Sunvale Primary School into a vital community asset. The new park was the outcome of a collaboration between the council and the community, creating a shared vision and, ultimately, a series of wonderful, unpretentious park uses and elements that have been adapted by users of all ages and social and cultural backgrounds. Effective water harvesting via a 100,000-litre underground tank and reuse of this critical resource enables year-round green lawns for ball games.
