The now vacant Kingswood golf course in Centre Dandenong Road, Dingley Village, was sold in September 2014 and a Project Team was appointed to plan and prepare the site for residential re-development.

An application for rezoning was lodged with Kingston Council, along with a proposal for a high-quality, masterplanned community.  Many families and individuals registered their keen interest in moving into the proposed development.

Kingston Council considered the proposal but in October 2018 Council voted to abandon its application to the Minister for Planning to have the site rezoned for residential development.

In good faith, the Kingswood Project Team withdrew its planning applications to Council.

The news reports on this website explain the plans for the original proposal and its progress through the planning process, including its eventual abandonment.

The 54-hectare site is now locked down until its long-term future is resolved. The golf course is no longer operational, although the grounds will be maintained in line with Council and community expectations.

The Kingswood Project Team will continue to seek a long-term solution for the site, and this website will be maintained to keep interested groups aware of developments.
