Pettys Reserve is well located and accessible as a regional sports venue on a major road (Reynolds Road), near a bus stop and surrounded by residents on only two sides.
The Reserve is currently being developed as a regional soccer facility, with Council's Recreation Strategy 2010 endorsing the implementation of works in two stages.
Stage 1 of the Development Plan was completed in 2012 and comprised two grass soccer fields, demolition of the former Pony Clubrooms, a crushed rock carpark with access from Smiths Road, fencing and landscaping.
Stage 2 of the Development Plan is to include a sealed carpark with access from Reynolds Road, a small sports pavilion, a small playspace and an upgrade of the soccer fields to synthetic turf.

Hillcrest Reserve on Lisbeth Avenue is an attractive, well vegetated reserve providing a range of opportunities for the local community, including tennis, children’s play for 1-5 year olds and access to the East Link Trail from Lisbeth Avenue and Savaris Court.
VicRoads acquired a section of the Reserve in 2006 for the construction of EastLink, thereby reducing the Reserve’s area to 1.3 hectares and removing the bushland area that the Reserve was once well known for.
The single tennis court, that was relocated as a result of freeway construction, is managed by a local community club. Opening up the tennis court to the broader community is being considered.

Ruffey Creek Linear Park is located 100 metres away to the west. Wombat Bend playspace is located 500 metres away to the north-west, while the proposed Swilk Reserve playspace will be located 400 metres away to the south-east.
This reserve has very low priority for further development. Improved accessibility and landscape management are the key actions. A more substantial upgrade may wait until the Pine trees have reached the end of their useful life.
