Marsfield Common 是两个社区组织 Eastwood Rugby 和 North Ryde RSL 提出的一项提案，旨在通过建造136座低层、多样化的住宅和一个新的公园，来复苏 TG Millner Field 场地，造福当地社区。
现在 TG Millner 橄榄球场的大部分土地都没有被利用起来，着实令人惋惜。这块私有场地面临着过度开发或衰落的风险。 Marsfield Common 可以通过吸引新的邻居、建造新的当地设施、融合新机会和新想法的方式，将已有社区与这块场地重新连接起来。
这项提案将包括：
建造132套低层和多样化的住宅。
利用场地15%面积新建一公顷的公园。
打造超过2000平方米的多项目游乐空间，造福全年龄段、不同身体素质的居民。
创建超过700平方米的多功能运动和休闲场地——排球、足球、篮球、羽毛球、乒乓球等。
额外种植570棵树，使场地树荫覆盖率达到65%。
通过向社区捐赠 500 万澳元建设可负担住房来回馈社会。
为了增加 City of Ryde 可负担住房的供应，已提议向市议会捐赠 500 万澳元，用于建设可负担住房。
还计划为 Ryde 市议会和当地社区打造一个大约一公顷的公园，其中包含超过2000平方米的多项目游乐空间，造福全年龄段、不同身体素质的居民，以及700平方米的多功能运动和休闲场地，可用于排球、足球、网球、篮球、羽毛球和乒乓球等运动。公园将占场地面积的15%。
为了拥有更凉爽的树荫，秉持着保护环境的目的，Marsfield Common 计划在整个场地种植至少570棵新树。这意味着场地的65%将被树荫覆盖，为该区域提供共享、舒适的自然环境，有更优质的“氧肺”来净化空气。
On July 3 2024, the Marsfield Common planning proposal was relodged with Ryde Council.
Unfortunately, a large portion of the privately-owned TG Millner complex has fallen into disuse and is now at risk of further deterioration. TG Millner field cannot stay as it is as it continues to impact the North Ryde RSL Community Club’s ability to support its members and the wider community.
Despite our efforts over the last two years to work with Council, the initial Marsfield Common planning proposal was rejected due to a decision by Council to seek to compulsorily acquire TG Millner Field, which had the potential to expose ratepayers to a cost approaching $80million in terms of acquiring the site and improving its facilities for public use.
Earlier this year, the NSW Government rightly rejected Council’s request to compulsorily acquire TG Millner Field as Council did not demonstrate either the strategic rationale for the proposed acquisition, or its financial capacity to acquire the site. In this regard, Ryde Council is in a dire financial situation, with Councillors being advised by Council officers on three (3) occasions since November 2023 that ‘Council may not be able to continue to operate as a going concern’.
The decision to relodge Marsfield Common again seeks to provide some certainty to the future of both North Ryde RSL and Eastwood Rugby Clubs and our combined circa 30,000 members.
We encourage everyone to consider the Marsfield Common proposal for themselves on the following pages of this site. This proposal was developed together with partners Eastwood Rugby and would provide 132 low-rise terrace homes and a new park, offering new public open space, housing opportunities, and a vibrant community hub for future generations.
