As a Council we are passionately committed to leading the change that makes this exciting vision a reality.
To reach our full potential we need investment to lead the change that will give all our residents the prosperity, opportunity and services they deserve.
We recognise we need to develop and enhance our sporting areas in Maryborough and Dunolly and create trails and open spaces to provide for fun, recreation, enjoyment and better health outcomes for residents and visitors including youth.
Investment in Central Goldfields Shire projects unlocks the future we need and must deliver.
Accordingly, at its February Ordinary Meeting Council adopted a Priority Projects Plan with 14 key projects around the Shire which we will seek Government investment and funding for. Within this Plan we will seek an investment of $5 million to provide modern facilities at the Deledio Recreation Reserve.
Funding for detailed design and construction costs to provide modern facilities at the Deledio Recreation Reserve will include contemporary change facilities for players and umpires, a function space and a commercial kitchen.
We know the Community wants a complex which not only provides change facilities, but which is accessible to all and can also be used to host community events and gatherings. Through community engagement the following key components were identified for a new facility – change rooms and umpires' rooms suitable for men and women (home and away), trainer's room, first aid, gym, commercial kitchen, bar, social room, public toilets, technology access, storerooms, offices, memorabilia display and balcony.
Our lobbying and advocacy to achieve this has just taken an important step forward.
