Under the provisions of the Parks and Reserves Act 1895, the Burswood Park Board is responsible for the control and management of Burswood Park, which comprises 56.5 hectares of ‘C’ class reserve that surrounds the five major buildings which make up Crown Perth and includes parks and gardens, permanent car-parking areas and the State Tennis Centre.

As part of the planned improvements and continual maintenance of the parks and gardens, various quantities of sand, landscaped soil and mulch are required.
