In 2000, HBCC re-tendered management of the park until 2002 accompanied
by a Management Contract. The Friends found the contract inadequate
and submitted an alternative structure with more rigorous key performance
indicators.
This submission was ignored. However, staffing levels were increased
slightly and the nursery was reopened under the tender of Greybox
(Christine and Peter Wlodarczyk). Darren Enst became the Ranger.
HBCC install new fences around the park and remove all the low vegetation
(that tempted residents to dump rubbish).

In 2001, HBCC released its plans for the widened and improved park entrance for completion in 2003. Andrew Webster became the Ranger. Susie Inglis, Ranger, held the first City of Hobsons Bay Friends Field Day. The FoNL bird trail and leaflet was launched. HBCC launched its
own trail and leaflet as well. The Friends ran a VUT Work for the
Dole Program building paths in Pavey's Park. Next: How FoNL formed
